hackaday.com is cool~~



Cool site! I just checked out your recommended site, hackaday.com!

i must say that these people must be experts in IT, Com Science, Robotics, Engineering and stuffs right? Wow I’m sure they are the geniuses behind those mega leading tech in our modern world! And they can definitely make them happen, I bet they can!

However, something really inspiring about it is that the genius behind the idea is actually a comic artist! Well I don’t know if he is an engineer by profession before switching into the comic world. But I bet he is a “visualist” who inspires people! At least he dared to document his brilliant ideas which could prompt other geniuses to think further and invent something perhaps!

Too bad I’m not technical enough to offer any invaluable insights to them.

But to be honest, I totally saw that cool 3D interface they mentioned and was thinking if that is what the scientists and experts are on now! So cool! I was so inspired by that but got to sit back after coz I couldn't do anything about it but wait and see if some "technocrats" and super geniuses can blow our minds with that happening in front of us! coOL~~

Nevertheless I really learned a lot of jargons related to those cool tech tools in Iron Man. Here are some of the key terms that I think any genius engineers and techno guys out there will be able to link together and figure out something, naming a few are the inductive aluminum furnace, which is the arc reactor producing 50GJ/s, photonics, ultrafast leasers, holographic projector, multi-touch table, wii-mote, 3D tracking software and 3D CAD, the idea of wearing a hologram on the hand, 3-d display for prototyping, and yea I’m so inspired by the commenter saying that 3-d display for prototyping could be used for something more than seeing a table full of photos! the power-user design, remote controller arm/robot, the "heart-like" reactor, blue LEDs, parallax/lynx motion robots, stamp/servo controller, OSX or Linux (haha so cool for advertising for them instead of MS! =P), "interface that can track a ‘pen’ across multiple screens and gaps in between", laser-scanner, context and accepted voice and keypad entries, storm trooper armor, vacuform table, and etc.

Quoting this especially, "It looks like a ton of fun trying to start from scratch with basic code to get the thing to walk like a person or at least walk fluidly with the ability to code some pretty neat sequences."

These people are darn cool! Thanks Ingenieur, I may not be able to do or share anything about it with those people over that site but they definitely are inspiring and motivating!! =P
