Another Robot Dog, Only Smaller

First came the Boston Dynamics “Big Dog”, then came the hilarious “Big Dog Spoof”… now there is the Boston Dynamics “LittleDog”. The little dog is smaller (duh) and quieter than the original. These robots are starting to worry me a bit… all of those old “robots taking over the world”…

Get Your Very Own Olympic Torch… Replica

For a paltry $500 you can have a replica (built from left over steel from the “Birds Nest” national stadium) of the Beijing 2008 Olympic Torch.  I love the Olympics as much as the next guy/gal… but not sure I want a 29cm tall version of it laying around collecting…

Hammock Tent

Love camping… but not a fan of pitching your tent on the ground with the scorpions, spiders, rodents, etc…?  Check out the Lawson Hammock tent.  This tent comes with spreader bars on both ends so you don’t feel like a mummy… it can hold one person and their gear.  Pretty…

Axon Anti-Gravity RC Hovercraft – The Razorback

I love remote control gadgets… cars… boats… planes… helicopters… etc… So when I saw the video for the Axon Razorback RC hovercraft I pee’d a little. The Razorback will go 25mph right out of the box… but can go 50mph (won’t take 2 minutes to crash it at those speeds)…

Chrome Ferrari 599?

So sad to see this type of thing done to a Ferrari 599GTB Fiorano, but at least the car is stuck in the desert.  A, obviously rich and bored, Saudi Arabian fellow owns this blinged out Ferrari 599GTB.  The car is not actually chrome… someone basically spent days buffing the…

Hide Your Valuables – Hidden Safe In Filing Cabinet

I am one of the most paranoid types… I always think of where people will look when I am hiding something of value… and I always worry that my small safe (not bolted down) can just be picked up and walked away with.  So, I like when I see “smart”…

Security Camera Follows Movement

Ever watched surveillance video where the bad guys walks out of the cameras view… and you are left wondering what they are up to just off camera? Well wonder no more… the PIR1002AT camera can track a person with a 180-degree viewing area. The camera uses three infrared sensors to…
