Robot Driving Ordering At A Fast Food Drive-Thru Prank
Guy builds a fake homemade robot, hides in the car, and takes it through fast food drive-thru restaurants. My favorite part is the girl calling out the fact that robot has sink drains for ears. Two videos of this robot ordering fast food after the break.
PowerVision PowerEgg Quadcopter
Let me start off with the unfortunate spoiler. This product is currently just a concept. A beautiful concept but a concept nonetheless. Video of the amazing transforming this egg does to become a quadcopter after the break.
Boston Dynamics Atlas
As if the other Boston Dynamics robots weren’t scary enough. The latest robot, Atlas, is making me have Terminator flashbacks. Sleep well my children.
Eagles Being Trained To Take Down Illegal Drones
Remember the Tokyo Drone Hunting Squad? Dumbest idea ever. Well, the Dutch are going to give Japan a run for their money. A new trial is underway using an amazing bird of pray, the eagle, to intercept drones that might be in the way during an emergency. Is this really that big of a problem? […]
Disney VertiGo Wall Climbing Robot Car

Boston Dynamics Reindeer Robots Pulling Santa’s Sleigh = Scary
As if the Boston Dynamics BigDog Robots weren’t already scary enough. They dressed some up like reindeer and had them pull Santa’s sleigh. The end of the world is near.
Flying R2-D2 Drone
On the same day that our “government” decides that everyone has to register their “drones” an R2-D2 drone hits the skies. The FAA is making it a requirement for people to register their unmanned aircraft systems (UAS). Ridiculous in my opinion. I will rant alone loudly in my office about this while planning my move to […]
Tokyo Drone Hunting Squad
In more irrational drone fear, Tokyo is joining the shenanigans with a drone that can catch/snag other drones. Basically they are flying what looks like DJI Spreading Wings 900 which carries a 3 x 2 meter net. And no, this isn’t a joke. It should be, but it isn’t. Tokyo law enforcement officials will have […]
Epson Paperlab
Imagine if you could take all of your scrap paper and turn it in to fresh paper. Imagine doing this without having to throw it in the recycling bin, have it shipped all over the world, and then repackaged and shipped back to you at retail prices. Yep, with the Epson Paperlab you can turn […]
