Beer Can Bot Has Devious Disguise

via Make: Online by Sean Michael Ragan on 9/06/11

The diabolical “Can Bot” from YouTuber longjie0723 will wait until you’ve had one too many, then, at just the right moment…ATTACK!

Actually, there doesn’t seem to be an “attack” button. I naturally assume it’s coming, though, in the second prototype. [Thanks, SeanECE!]

The Netherlands Architecture Institute (NAI) and TNT Post present the first stamps in the world with augmented reality. The stamps show five futuristic buildings designed by famous Dutch architects. When put in front of a webcam, these buildings will appear in 3D on the stamp. By moving the stamp, users are able to see the virtual building from almost any angle.

Pendulum Pr0n

That's beautiful!

Pendulum Pr0n

via Make: Online by John Baichtal on 18/05/11

Fifteen uncoupled simple pendulums of monotonically increasing lengths dance together to produce visual traveling waves, standing waves, beating, and (seemingly) random motion.
The period of one complete cycle of the dance is 60 seconds. The length of the longest pendulum has been adjusted so that it executes 51 oscillations in this 60 second period. The length of each successive shorter pendulum is carefully adjusted so that it executes one additional oscillation in this period. Thus, the 15th pendulum (shortest) undergoes 65 oscillations.

[Thanks, Andy]

Egg coasters and bread coasters (new)

Always so nice to do the felting when sun shine comes in my kitchen.

I made a new coaster shaped a slice of bread, now you can make sandwiches with them.
