Masking tape and storytelling! Calcium pills and Scandinavian gods! Stop signs and distant relatives. None of the above mentioned things are going to be featured in this post, although they are extremely noteworthy. But all the things in the universe are interconnected, so there's still a chance that this stuff will make sense for someone. So - radioactive weasels!

Robot Long Exposure Light Painting
We have tons of LED strings, gotta train Roomba (or office dogs) to do just that! (Via IEEE Spectrum)
Mini-Matchstick Gun

3D Printed Sugar
Sure it looks lovely, but the only question remains - is it borderline edible or fully edible after it goes through the 3D printer? And can you 3D print some artificial teeth after all this sugar is consumed? (By The Sugar Lab, Via Ignant)
MIT Academics Design Book That Lets Readers Feel the Protagonist's Pain
I can see the potential, but please don't make me read horror stories! (Via Designboom)
Cuboino by FELIX HEIBECK
While we've seen quite a few marble track systems, this one allows you by far more control than others. And it is well-designed and laser-cut. (Maker's website)

Now if universe would be so kind in all of it entropic interconnected goodness and bring me some hot chocolate, I will be very happy.

Sumovore code online

Hey!?! Didja know we didn't have a link to the BS2 code for the Sumovore BS2 add-on board? Well, we did, but it was on the news posting, not the BS2 adapter board page (it does now!). Grant did a great job setting up framework for a great dual-purpose BS2-controlled Sumovore. Set it down on […]

RoboSapien Movie

Hi all. Yesterday's solar race cars were very cool. Lots of neat tech, and a neck'n'neck race to the finish too! I took the extra effort to see some of the cars out at highway speed, then saw them again in-town. These things move! Anyways, enough about that. I got an email from John Hopkins, […]
