Hardcore (-ish) band The Dillinger Escape Plan recently announced that it will include a television quashing universal remote in limited edition box sets…
I’m sure you’ve heard about Logitech’s Touch Mouse by now; the internet’s been buzzing with the news since Monday (and the story was floating around in cyberspace for a bit before it took off).
According to Logitech Global Product Marketing Manager Andy Hengel, the Touch Mouse app uses Wi-Fi to turn your iPhone or iPod touch [...]
Polar Bears are typically pretty scary to encounter in real life, that is unless you have some protective glass between you and them of course. Now what would happen if the glass was inside of the Polar Bear instead, and it was actually a 720p HDTV from Hannspree? Well you would have yourself the CES [...]

Dog feeders
Military Drones
A helicopter
What next? How about a bi-pedal walking robot named Walky. The robot and controller were developed by a group of grad students [...]
I’ve seen a few cars being driven by the iPhone, that’s cool and all, but the guys from Mythbusters have basically been doing that for years. Starting your car with the iPhone makes sense, but driving hands free? The people from Engineer Awesome, which is a part of Waterloo Labs at National Instruments, make it [...]
Bowling can be pretty frustrating — unless you have those awesome bumpers we used at my 5th birthday party. I’ve always wanted to bowl a perfect game like Mort Goldman, but to be honest I think the LHC has a better chance of actually getting started first. Until now. With the RC900, a remote control [...]
