Paint your entire wall is a switch on / off

This is an interesting device that seems to be somewhere on the display at a convention, but my source say no where.

I do not know if this off on about the painting of the official name of this product is known, but it certainly is the best descriptor.

I'm not sure how it works, but apparently the user brushes or rollers special painting on the wall, then an electrical switch for the lighting or other device that you set out, power.

This certainly helps in situations where you are in a dark room and the adherence to the switch. Instead of hitting things in the trade or bumping your knee, you just touch the wall with the color / Off. These or other places that you paint on the wall with paint on / off.

Sounds good, right? I like the sound of it. This not only has on / off the color of this incredible ability to conduct electricity have in any way, but the user can complete it with paint or wallpaper, too. I even heard that there is a way to dim light, but I have no information on that.

I have no information about price and availability date. (All non-full details on this one!) I think it will not be cheap, and hopefully soon.

Palro gets an upgrade and a voice!

Some of you may remember when we covered almost a year ago Palro February.

At this time, we reported that Palro 20 joints, five microphones, speech recognition, mono speaker, had 3-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi IEEE 802.11 b / g / n, gyro sensors, sensor acceleration, three axes, eight pressure sensors on the feet, 1 GB of internal memory, USB port and an Intel Atom 1.6 GHz.

I would have said, are cited as Palro “a laptop with legs.” If true, then the laptop just made an upgrade with an Atom Z530 processor, 4 GB flash memory, and an inner Ubuntu kernel.

Palro now looking more like a robot from our dreams of science fiction, as he learned to speak. (Perhaps I should say “they” like the sound of female voices.) You can use the video after the jump you can see for yourself to see.

Some of you may, that we remember the last time Palro discussed, he said it was like a robot you can program to do. Imagine, you can do, if you can talk!

I think we reported last time on Palro it costs about $ 3300 According to my sources, news, the price has jumped to $ 3,600 apparently.

Laser pointer at aircraft are increasingly becoming an Hazzard

I'm not sure if you knew this, but apparently it is very dangerous, a laser pointer to point aircraft.

Apparently, this laser is an inch closer to actually be several centimeters when it is high in the air. You can imagine how this can be annoying for drivers. Even worse, spreads the beam when the windshield of a cockpit hits. As you can see, the light spreads as bright as the driver in the dark (of course) is.

I'm definitely sending a shout-out used to all of a laser pointer to distract a driver. Are you mad? Do you really want to raise Cain, as thousands of tons of metal falling from the sky dangerous?

In addition, the FAA advises that there is a record number of reports of laser pointers on aircraft in 2010. In fact, it doubled from 2009. LAX had the highest number with 102, while my hometown of Seattle had the lowest with 26 and

Of course, something must happen in order to reduce incidents of aircraft laser pointer. Incidentally, I do not think this is the official term for events like this, but I do not think it will take until it becomes a “hot button” as an SMS while driving or distracted driving.

Check the volume on your portable device through your jacket zipped jacket Zip

I think the clothing industry is to meet the needs of the mobile industry. After all, my wife at least two or three sweaters, a pocket for a cell phone or MP3 player has to have.

This particular jacket is by Jennifer Darmour Zip. This is a jacket style with a unique ability for the user to control the volume by the zipper.

That's right, you can zip jacket, make your volume up or down to decrease. There's a video after the jump, if you do not believe me.

Of course I can not really say that have a volume control is handy in the zipper. I mean, what if it's a cold day, and you need to zip your jacket? It will definitely lower your music.

Is not there a possibility that zip on the jacket, so it put non-functional as some of the zippers on Michael Jackson jacket of the eighties?

I'm sure they will be on details of the work, and this lady does not look good? By the way, there are retractable headphones, to prevent them from bouncing around the neck.

Bowling and pool mix with the game Knokke (yes, for what it’s called)

This is a game called Knokke, and yes, I realize that sounds like a common name for certain female body parts, but I want you to hit on the head.

Completely out of my head. Now in your mind something very manly sports, bowling and pool. Knokke is the combination of these sports, and you have before you here.

Knokke with not a signal, but it has all the regular 8-ball bullets, but they are the size and weight of bowling balls of six books. The “table” that you see here is for the bottom and is about four times larger.

As already mentioned, the only evidence is the player, and you can pick up and move the white ball. Of course, the player can not move his feet when the ball was hit.

It is Steve Wienecke, a former semi-pro football and cage fighting, which was built in the courtyard of the athlete in Fredericktown, Missouri, sleepers, gravel and concrete design.

I do not really see any new leagues are formed Knokke. I wonder if anyone wants a kit Knokke, that people do not in their own backyard can. Okay, I hate the name of this game! Looks like I mean something else. Can I please?

Meco press creates Lego giant clay

What you see here is not a Lego block, but a brick of clay.

Mud: Ordered a CEO Thierry Perrocheau has developed a method by which people in third world countries to houses and other buildings of a material, they have developed to build a lot.

These bricks are made with a press Meco. With a little binder and a pile of dirt, you have a pile of stones. It seems that the bricks come in one size: 1 x 4 x 4

The press could be used to build blocks for a hundred and eighty of the known world. I wonder if this guy do his Meco press in all forms of Lego bricks. just follow the house from the Lego catalog: It would be an interesting way to build a house.

Unfortunately, it takes about 30 minutes to create one of these blocks. Therefore, it is for the user to structures which are two storeys high to create possible.

Overall, I hope to see more of it. As my source said, who does not want a site where the materials are on the website itself it? Perhaps a machine could be done to make building materials out of nothing.
