1.6m Tall Gas Powered Exoskeleton for Kids – Holy Shi–Wow

Why wasn’t this created back when I was a kid? This is is absolutely ridiculous!
This…”toy” is more like a Gundam than anything, also known as a giant fighting robot piloted by a human. The creator of this soon-to-be Gundam battle suit, is manufacturer Sakakibara Kikai. I expect that a lazer saber and gun attachments will be added next. Afterwards maybe some booster jets to allow the pilot to fly around in the air. Essentially, it’s just a gasoline powered exoskeleton dubbed “Kid’s Walker”. But we all know the truth!
So…Some more information on this! It weighs 396.83 lbs. Imagine having your toe ran over by that thing! As stated earlier, it’s 1.6 meters tall, or roughly 5.25 feet. That means your little boy won’t be so little anymore once he’s in his killing machine. Here’s a video of it in partial action —
Now just wait until a child with malicious intent climbs aboard this battle machine. You’ll be fine…as long as his gundam claw doesn’t dig into your brain. Here’s one final picture of this piece of machinery–

Technology is just oh so cool! LG has flexible e-paper. Enki posted something like it previously awhile back. This isn’t a flexible LCD though. Expect these babies in upcoming devices! Click the image to enlarge it.
New Technology to Prevent Birds From Smashing Their Brains Into Windows
Last Updated on Thursday, 26 August 2010 01:19 Written by DarkKnightH20 Friday, 27 August 2010 10:00
Birds love to fly into house windows. Why? Because they don’t know that a window is there if it’s clean. Thinking that they can just fly into the house, they end up smashing their head against the window and get bird brains everywhere. A tragic, sad fate. Fortunately, new technology allows for special windows to be created that prevent this from happening.
This crafty design allows the windows to look perfectly normal to the human eye, while the anti-bird feature is only visible by birds. A UV reflective coating is put on the windows, which helps visible UV light appear and make the windows look more apparent. Birds are able to see a far broader spectrum of UV light than humans, which is why this works.

The Internet Crunch
Last Updated on Thursday, 27 May 2010 05:12 Written by Foose Thursday, 27 May 2010 05:12
In the 1970’s when Internet Protocol Addressing Scheme version 4 was initiated, few could believe we’d one day run out of IP addresses to access the internet. Well guess what? With the thousands of new products that have internet access (ie: Cars, phones, military watches, etc) along with technologically developing countries (ie: China, India, Cana…. Just kidding) we are reaching the limit of internet accessibility. The solution? Internet Protocol Addressing Scheme version 6!! Problem is, businesses are proving slow to adapt. Europe seems to have a head start on us, a quarter of their businesses have made the change. It’s the future.

Skin-Put

Well, another random piece of technology broke through to my discovery. We all have touch screens, but what if you turned your body into a touch sensor? Pretty wacky. The applications get better as the video goes on.
Watch it here!
