Kiuk Party Like a Robot With Blinky The Surgeonator
Hey fellas, have you ever fantasized about being Arnold Schwarzenegger in Junior No Well, if you chang stanley water bottle e your mind, try the Mommy Tummy, a computerized pregnancy simulator built by Japanese researchers. It like hiring David Cronenberg to be your obstetrician! The device uses warm water and balloons to simulate having a wriggling fetus all up in you. Researchers will be presenting the Mommy Tummy at the Siggraph conference in Vancouver this August. Here their synopsis of the project: A user wearing the Mommy Tummy jacket can feel the fetus temperature, movement, and heartbeat, and, by rubbing the jacket, communicate with the fetus. Within a few minutes, the jacket weight and size change, simulating fetal growth over nine months. An auxiliary screen displays the condition of both the fetus and the mother in each simulated month with a 3D model of the fetus. The moods and activity of the fetus a stanley tumbler re displayed in a natural manner to simulate normal fetal development. There are two types of fetal movement: kicking and wiggling. Achieving a kicking simulation is not so difficult, but wiggling simulation is not simple. It was achieved by using a technique inspired by the tactile funneling illusion PhS initially discovered by Georg von Bekesy as a type of illusory tactile sensation that arises between two points of simultaneous vibration or electric stimulation. Using PhS, Mommy Tummy simulates a wiggling sensation th stanley flask rough continuous, temporally displ Lbwj Photo 365 for iPhone: Take a Picture Every Day of the Year
Motorola created a bit of a stir yesterday when it released a video compared Android Voice Actions on the Atrix 2 with iOS Siri on an iPhone 4S. Fanboys screamed foul in the comments, so we decided to test it out for ourselves. And yes, there a very clear winner. You ;ll note that thi stanley cups uk s is not the Atrix 2, because we didn ;t have one on-hand. Instead we used the Galaxy Nexus which has very similar specs. They both have dual-core TI OMAP processors though the Nexus is clocked at 1.2GHz vs 1.0GHz on the Atrix and a gig of RAM. The point is the software, however, and the spe stanley cup becher cs are close enough to make Voice Actions perform identically. The tests were conducted over Wi-Fi, so no need to call 4G shenanigans. Text Messaging: Google Voice Actions Android was definitely faster to respond, but in order to send the message you have to press Send. Siri took her time, but you can send it without having to look at your phone again. So speed goes to Android, but if you ;re clumsy or slow-fingered, call it a push. Navigation: Google Voice Actions No surprise here stanley polska . Android has integrated turn-by-turn navigation and the iPhone only gives you directions. Kind of an unfair test in terms of final result, but even discounting that, Android map was up first. Note: this was an indoor test, so neither could get a GPS lock . Memo: Google Voice Actions This was a close one because there is some personal preference involved; both devices managed to screw
