This movie is actually a fake. It is created by putting a green screen on the powerbook screen and mixing the background image over the green layer of the video. The reason I put it here is that a transparent screen like this is completely feasible and may have several advantages. Perhaps this design should become standard.1) It will save plenty of battery life since the backlight may become obsolete. Any wall or object reflecting the room light can be used instead of internal backlight.2) The screen can be used in presentations without a projector.3) Weight and thickness  could be r

 I don't know what went through the heads of the guys who made this. USB drives shaped as food. Come on... What did the management meeting sound like when they approved it ?- It will sell well to hungry people- Put it in the fridge and both your desk and fridge look tidy- Sushi sales are up. Let's do a Sushi USB and grab the Sushi market share- If you lose it you will hear laughter alarm- Its theft protected USB drive. Who will look stupid enough to run away with a shrimp   I think I'll have the 1GB Jumbo shrimp.

The term BEAM is an acronym for Biology, Electronics, Aesthetics and Mechanics. BEAM robotics was invented (and is patented) by Dr Mark W.&nbsp ;Tilden whilst he was a student at University in Canada.  BEAM robotics is a style of robotics that primarily uses simple analog circuits (instead of a microprocessor; though some "mutants" exist that do). Most BEAM robots are unusually simple in design compared to traditional mobile robots, and trade off flexibility in purpose for robustness of performance. (" light-seekers&q uot;) react to light sources.

    Wrigley, the famous chewing gum manufacturer and holder of top brands like Orbit, Juicy Fruit, Hubba Bubba and others, is investing in a scientific endeavor that will hopefully link Chewing gum to health benefits.The company plans to invest millions in "Wrigley Science Institute", consisting of an international advisory panel of scientists and research experts.The goal of the research is to provide proofs of benefits of chewing gum as well as to establish evidence on assumptions regarding chewing.According to Dave Carpenter (ASSOCIATED PRESS), The Chicago-based company emphasizes that the scientists remain independent and their work, which is being carried out at laboratories elsewhere and not at Wrigley's new research center, is to be published in peer-review journals.Current studies are looking into three areas of potential benefits, the company says:• Stress management: What's behind the common practice of chewing gum to relieve tension? Wrigley cites research showing that it stimulates certain areas of the brain, but wants to go further.

TXTual healing uses a cell phone a computer and a projector to create a mobile public performance by posting a person's text messages into speech bubbles that are strategically placed on the facades of buildings.   Using 'always on' technology, cell phones with SMS messaging allow an audience to interact with large speech bubbles projected onto a flat surface, like the facade of a building. The bubbles are positioned near windows and doors to encourage an audience to create the conversations happening inside.

 Forget big screen and flat panel TVs. The Infernoptix Digital Pyrotechnic Matrix is the latest in high-impact visual and audio entertainment. The 96-inch screen employs computer-controlled bursts of fire, in a 12 x 7 array, to create scrolling text, simple animations, freehand sketching (via mouse), and an audio level meter. There's even a percussion mode, which takes advantage of the concussive nature of each burst to allow scripting and playback of complex rhythms. Custom software ties it all together to allow precise and convenient control of all screen functions. Dance floor
