Project mimesis uses sand to create a virtual landscape

I imagine that one of the most difficult things in the life to imitate in 3D computer graphics is Pierre.

Some of you might remember the canyons in the cars that looked like fins on an Impala, but if you really want a landscape virtual realistic canyon? With the project mimesis, you need is to sand and a special sensor.

This is one such technology that you see to believe, is why included a video after the jump, so you can see it in action. You can see the lights of sensor from top to bottom that create a more colourful world of sand, and how to shape sand Exchange digital counterpart.

You can see in the video game that Monobanda, the developers of this technology, intend to use their sandbox to game graphics emulator. They already have some crazy type of game with bouncing balls, and it seems that this is rigged a Xbox 360 controller.

I see not the technology used by the player create user-driven content. Do you really want an accessory of game you need to constantly use the autour according vacuum? Or a sandbox in the room, elsewhere?

Yes, this looks like something that would use the developers of games, but the technology for the project mimesis is still "in development".

Apple App Store moves more than 15 billion apps

15 billion and counting - the plague that Apple has built over the years with their App Store, after having moved the amount of apps by more than 200 million iPad, iPhone and iPod touch users around the world. Asked me the show all and apps just how may downloaded the official track instead of the devious minds taking road jailbreak? That cannot be answered at the present time, but it is certainly true of ponder.

Apple App Store is said to offer more than 425 000 apps, with developers being credited for producing more than 100,000 native iPad apps as well. It took a simple 3 years for the App Store to increase its current size, and certainly the kind of material that Apple deployed over the years have played a role in the spread of the purchase of apps. After all, have great software but poor hardware is never a winning combination and vice versa. Other (Android Market and Windows Marketplace) clearly play catch with Android Market with a remote chance to catch up later with the App Store.

The App Store has been a fertile ground for start ups and the developers of small time to share their genius with the world. Take, for example, Dr. Ge Wang, co-founder of Smule and Professor at Centre of Stanford computer research in music and acoustics. He said: "we have created musical magic, when iPhone users experienced Ocarina three years ago." And now with iPad, we created the Magic Piano and violin with magic apps. "Who could have dreamed an iPad would make his way in the San Francisco Symphony?"

The App Store is available to consumers in 90 countries, and it is not short on categories, where, among them games, business, news, education, sport, health, reference and travel. While Apple has paid developers more than 2.5 billion to date, it will show just how much more Apple made within the same time to be able to afford such a payment. Here is for the next 15 billion, Apple and watch your six!

NASA has a way to transform the urine in a drink

Don't forget the time of the opening of the Waterworld where Kevin Costner pees in a Cup, is a machine and it drinks? It would greatly surprise you to know that NASA is working on this technology giving astronauts?

This method uses forward osmosis, which is "the natural diffusion of water through a semipermeable membrane from a solution of a lower concentration in a solution with a higher concentration. This allows you to urinate in a bag and then use the syringe attached to the bag of receptacle to transform your liquid waste in a sweet drink electrolyte.

That's right, you can transform your pee in Gatorade! I am not sure if I want to be the first to drink it. Some of you are probably find the matter subject to be "gross", and I think that it is a perfectly human response. I guess someone has to go against their natural instincts and really try to drink filtered urine.

It is quite clear that NASA would need something like this on the space shuttle. I've heard that each book adds $10,000 for costs and the stored water is quite heavy. However, there is a limit to how much you can Pee and drink. Just as in cannot recycle a product continually, water real drunk.

Since I already mentioned Waterworld at the beginning of this piece, let me go on it. Why should Kevin Costner pee in a cup for drinking water? Couldn't simply use the miles of seawater around him? And why he put the Cup on the unstable surface of a boat and urinating in it, instead of keeping closer them to his bladder? Stuff like this bored just, or maybe it's just the film Waterworld.

The future of glasses

In the future, our glasses could help us to better see a different way. I'm talking about electronic technology on the glasses.

Some Oxford researchers are working on some executives who have cameras mounted on the edges, with lenses dotted with lights. This allows users to macular degeneration see a simplified version of their entourage. They were also a few other exciting features such as detection of face, software monitoring, detection of position and depth sensors.

If you think it's cool, I found another set of concept of glasses that can do even more. Is under development by MIT's Rosalind Picard and Rana el Kaliouby of the University of Cambridge, and their glasses have a small camera as well. The difference is that this camera has a small computer that will be "read" the expressions of a person. He said even if someone responds negatively or positively by a red or a green flash that only the user can see.

Yes, Mr President, it seems to me that the glasses are on the point of becoming more intelligent than smartphones. I can't help but think that we are searching in a non-natural territory on a scale of Borg with something like that. However, these glasses are two concepts for the moment, so we will leave the future deal with it.

Additional features include monitors for user pulse, blood pressure and body temperature. These important numbers are displayed on the LCD screen on the clasp of the cane. There is even a button to send an SOS emergency.
