This robot won a silver medal at Kinetic Artbot RoboGames 2007. It uses 2X Wilesco D49 Marine Double Piston Steam Engine and runs on alcohol. So if you feel like finishing that bottle of whiskey fill this baby up and watch it go

How do you feel about these spooky, macabre pictures? Despite the dark, depressing aura I found some of these to be quite cute, like the one with the roses. Hope you guys won’t get nightmares after this.

Do you remember how the early computers looked like and how they operated? Here they are! Interesting though, we used these computers to make first flights into space and they all seemed very modern and hi-tech. Now a mobile phone can process data much faster than these computers.

Human creativity knows no bounds, here are some cool and wacky designs for toilets and urinals. Some are very creative others are just plain scary like the guillotine one. The last photo is the best, whoever thought of it sure has a lot of imagination. Also I beg getting this chair into such a small room wasn’t easy.

We all get annoyed when some young people start hanging out right under your windows. Here’s one way to make the place under your windows a bit less hospitable. This is a simple, effective and elegant solution, it doesn’t spoil the design and gets the job done.

Strato Cruiser Airship is a concept for a “lifestyle zeppelin” developed by Tino Schaedler and Michael J Brown. It has a restaurant, a spa, a swimming pool, a resident DJ a library, offices and much more. The passengers will be able to enjoy spa treatments, personal trainers, yoga classes and beauty care. Also during flight they will also have a fantastic view of beautiful landscapes and cities. I can’t wait for this thing to be built and take a long relaxing cruise.

The Interactive Media Wall by Perceptive Pixel is a 8 x 3 feet multi-touch screen. This media wall allows you to list through photographs, zoom in and out, scroll documents and much, much more. This is a very futuristic and fun piece of technology. There’s no point saying what it can do, it’s much more interesting to watch the video. The Interactive Media Wall can be bought for $100,000.00 I wouldn’t mind getting myself one of these, the feeling of manipulating and navigating through all kinds of information by touch must be great.

World Wildlife Fund was founded more than 45 years ago and for all this time it has been protecting the future of nature. Here are some advertisements by WWF. I found these to be very powerful and the message is more than clear. We should stop taking and start caring.
