Is Time Travel Possible? - The Science of Doctor Who - Doctor Who - BBC


Is Time Travel really Possible? In this clip Professor Brian Cox - a confirmed Doctor Who fan - undertakes an experiment with a light showing that time moves more slowly for a moving clock than a stationary one. By this rationale, a person travelling very quickly would in effect experience the future sooner compared to those standing still and watching!

Electrolytic Rust Removal aka Magic

Electrolytic Rust Removal aka Magic

This is a relatively simple, safe and cheap way to remove light or heavy rust from any ferrous object. I used this process to restore an old wood plane that I bought for $1 (it looked totally un-usable because of the rust). As opposed to grinding, heavy wire brushing and acid bath processes, this me...



Getting your home ready for winter

Getting your home ready for winter

Hi. This is my first post in instructables.com. If you are a lucky one like me and live in a cold location, then last winter (2014) was a very chilled experience to say the least. After seeing my heat bill going to the roof I got to the task of increasing my home efficiency as much as possible for t...

Louie Schwartzberg: Hidden miracles of the natural world


We live in a world of unseeable beauty, so subtle and delicate that it is imperceptible to the human eye. To bring this invisible world to light, filmmaker Louie Schwartzberg bends the boundaries of time and space with high-speed cameras, time lapses and microscopes. At TED2014, he shares highlights from his latest project, a 3D film titled "Mysteries of the Unseen World," which slows down, speeds up, and magnifies the astonishing wonders of nature.

Facebook's Most Invasive App Yet

Facebook's Most Invasive App Yet


Facebook has a new feature that uses the microphone in your smartphone to listen in on the TV shows and movies you're watching and the music you're listening to - then it posts that information to your Facebook page. It turns everything you're doing into a status update. Do we really want Facebook reporting everything we do? Because if this goes well, you know where they're going next.

Improve Visual Quality by Running your Monitor at a Non-Native Resolution

Improve Visual Quality by Running your Monitor at a Non-Native Resolution


OGSSAA is a type of anti aliasing that involves sending a higher-than-native resolution signal to your monitor, then downsampling it to native resolution to improve image quality. It won't help with text, but for gaming you may be surprised at the difference!

The Glaucus - A Quadrupedal Soft Robot With No Hard Moving Parts

March 25, 2014

The Glaucus - A quadrupedal soft robot with no hard moving parts


The Glaucus, named after the Blue Sea Slug (Glaucus Atlanticus), is an open source soft robotic quadruped from Super-Releaser { http://superreleaser.com }. It is a proof of concept for a method developed at Super-Releaser that can reproduce nearly any geometry modeled on the computer as a seamless silicone skin. The company hopes to apply these same techniques to practical problems in medicine and engineering as the technology develops.

The quadruped has hollow interior chambers that interdigitate with one another. When either of these chambers is pressurized it deforms and bends the structure of the robot. This bending produces the walking motion. It is similar to how a salamander walks, by balancing itself on one pair of legs diagonal from one another while moving the opposite pair forward.

Super-Releaser is an open source company. You can find links to all of its research, including downloads for 3d printing your own Glaucus, on { http://superreleaser.com }. You can find supplemental information on how this technology was developed at { http://bit.ly/softrobots }. If you have any questions about the Glaucus, soft robotics, or the tutorials Super-Releaser has authored, please visit the Soft Robotics Forum at { http://forum.superreleaser.com }.
