High-Speed Robot Hand

August 23rd, 2009 No comments

High speed motor fusion.

This robotic hand was developed in the Ishikawa Komuro Lab and displays some insane demonstrations of extreme dexterity.  The hand can dribble a ping pong ball, spin a pen, throw, catch, and even tie knots!

It will be amazing when one of these things can go down into the ocean and repair say, a fiber optic line, without ever bringing up the cable.

It would also be convenient if I ever became severely obese and needed Thing T. Thing to tie my shoes. :)

Slug Sex is Insane

March 14th, 2009 1 comment

So, here we have a video of two leopard slugs mating and I think it’s safe to say that this is one of the craziest thing I’ve ever seen.

The whole “dance” is actually pretty beautiful if you block out the fact that these are slugs getting it on.

Alexei Arkhipovskiy playing an instrument that is very similar to a ukulele but might be something different? If anyone knows the correct name i would really love to know (thank you!).

Edit: The instrument is called a Balalaika, it’s Russian and only has three strings! [wikipedia]

Definitely check this clip out if you are a music fan.

Beautiful Acoustic Guitar

May 5th, 2008 No comments

This song is called Red Hills and the gentleman playing is Staffan Svahn.  The youtube page said the following:

Yesterday evening I took off late for my daily run. When I ran up into our valley the sun was setting behind me. As I gazed up towards the hills they caught fire. For about a minute the hills glowed in the most spectacular shades of red.

The song is very layered and sounds great.

Cat’s Eye Nebula

March 25th, 2008 No comments

Cat’s Eye NebulaWhat a beautiful picture!

The Cat’s Eye Nebula (NGC 6543) is a planetary nebula in the constellation of Draco. Structurally, it is one of the most complex nebulae known, with high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope observations revealing remarkable structures such as knots, jets and sinewy arc-like features.

It was discovered by William Herschel on February 15, 1786, and was the first planetary nebula whose spectrum was investigated by the English amateur astronomer William Huggins in 1864.

Modern studies reveal several mysteries. The intricacy of the structure may be caused in part by material ejected from a binary central star, but as yet, there is no direct evidence that the central star has a companion. Also, measurements of chemical abundances reveal a large discrepancy between measurements done by two different methods, the cause of which is uncertain.
