Bionic Eyes Incoming

“Looking through a completed lens, you would see what the display is generating superimposed on the world outside,” said Babak Parviz, a UW assistant professor of electrical engineering. “This is a very small step toward that goal, but I think it’s extremely promising.” The results were presented today at the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers’ international conference on Micro Electro Mechanical Systems by Harvey Ho, a former graduate student of Parviz’s now working at Sandia National Laboratories in Livermore, Calif. Other co-authors are Ehsan Saeedi and Samuel Kim in the UW’s electrical engineering department and Tueng Shen in the UW Medical Center’s ophthalmology department.

“The ministry says it is going ahead with the process of applying the technology to nuts-and-bolts building projects. It will create a construction process almost totally automated, taking advantage of 12 high-tech patents including so-called “intelligent” cranes and the world’s first bolt-tightening robots.”

Can we have cranes with faces and emotion by 2020 please?

Fujistu Clerk Browser

01.08.08

OhGizmo! is at CES 2008 and they have seen some seriously cool concepts at the Fujitsu booth one of which really stands out.

“This one is my favorite. Fujitsu designed it as “an information terminal which a salesclerk uses in stores,” but it’s way too cool for that. It neatly solves the biggest problem that wrist computers have: restricted display space. And wearing it makes me feel, for some reason, exactly like Batman. Yep, it’s only day 1 of CES, and already I’m going nuts.”
