Technology: Boeing Innovations Has Made A Metal That Is Almost As Light As Air (Video)
October 14, 2015
If you can watch this and think it’s not cool as sh!t… we’re gonna need you to reevaluate what cool tech is. In a word: WOW!
Microlattice is the lightest metal ever made. At 99.99% air, it’s light enough to balance on top of a dandelion, while its structure makes it strong. Strength and record breaking lightness make it a potential metal for future planes and vehicles.

Technology: Miracle Motorbike Can Go 300 Miles On A Quart Of Water! (Video)
September 29, 2015
That motor sounds like the space cars on The Jetsons cartoon Hahaaaa!
And that’s the last laugh, because this futuristically powered motorbike is serious business. I am surprised that Big Auto or some oil company has not put a hit out on dude …yet. Then again, no matter how fast or far gas prices come down, can they ever really compete with a bike that travels 310 miles on a little more than a quart of water? With no exhaust pollutants; just water vapor? WOWOWWWWW! This is good tech.
A motorcycle able to travel up to 500 kilometres (310 miles) on a litre of water was trumpeted by creator Ricardo Azevedo in Sao Paulo, Monday.
Called the ‘T Power H20,’ the design features a combination of water and a single, external car battery used to produce electricity and separate the hydrogen from the water molecule. The process, involving a pipe-system, results in combustion which subsequently creates the energy necessary to power the bike.

Science/Technology: New ‘Vetigel’ Stops Bleeding In Seconds (Video)
September 8, 2015
Soon to be a must-have in every first-aid kit, this Vetigel can be injected into the deepest cuts to literally stop heavy bleeding within seconds. The Vetigel is a hemostatic substance, made using algae, whose particles reorganize in the wound to form a solid blockade to stop blood from escaping.
Vetigel is approved for use on animals now; with clearance for use on humans expected next year (2016). A little too late for this year’s barbecue carving mishaps; but for next year’s cookouts, perhaps have some Vetigel kits at the ready.
Oh, and when Joe Landolina started working on this medical science innovation… He was 17 years old (wow)!

Lexus Unveils It’s Brand New “Hoverboard” (Video)
August 25, 2015
Other hoverboard vids we’ve posted to date have been less than or different than what sci-fi has us expecting – like not that ‘real’ Marty McFly board we’ve been looking forward to. But this video is showing skateboarders riding and getting dumped, grinding rails and making jumps! Hey, if it walks, talks and squawks like a duck, it must be, right? Oh wait, this thing can ride across water??? Sh!t it can ‘hover’ like a duck? Incredible!
We’ve made the impossible, possible: The Lexus Hoverboard is here… The Lexus Hoverboard represents true innovation and imagination, together pushing the boundaries of technology even further.

Too Far To Walk? Nowhere To Park? WalkCar Lets You Ride In And Take Your ‘Ride’ With You (Video)
August 19, 2015
Wow! Are you seeing this? It’s like they’ve almost figured out a futuristic George Jetson car; one that you can ride to work and carry into the office. Now, if they could only make it fly (like this one here). WalkCar is the world’s smallest electric car, as small as a laptop. Super cool transportation tech! You steer it with your body movements; so it’s not a big effort to learn to operate. This could be the biggest thing is small vehicles EVER!
Soon to start fundraising via Kickstarter. Pre-orders for WalkCar will be taken starting October 2015.
Hmm… Did I say “could” be the biggest…? Nah, this WILL be huge! For more on this compact, powerful mini-vehicle innovation from Tokyo’s Cocoa Motors, visit the company website www.cocoamotors.com

‘Legal Equalizer’ App To Help You Know Your Rights And Protect You In Encounters With Police (Video)
August 3, 2015
“This app is something that we truly believe in…that’s going to make things more equal for everybody. That’s the point of this app. We want people to know their rights. We want people to have their friends and family contacted…when they have any kind of interaction with law enforcement officers.”
– Mbye Njie
This is the type of thing apps should be doing. Music, movies and games are fine; but how about securing your liberty. Think about it: Your rights are your RIGHTS, but only if you remember to invoke them! And will you remember your rights when local law enforcement is tapping on your window during a ‘routine’ traffic stop? The police are trained to get information from suspects they might otherwise withhold; but you should NOT be treated like a suspect if you are not. Cops would certainly not mind a little leeway in dealing with a ‘tough arrest.’ Perhaps knowing their curbside investigation is being recorded – and that your friends, family and/or lawyer has been notified – is better for EVERYBODY… the peace officers AND the people they’re sworn to PROTECT and serve.
And what if you are detained or taken into custody? With this Legal Equalizer app, you can be reminded of what the authorities can and cannot do or ask. It would probably comfort you a bit to also know that you won’t spend time in a squad car station without your folks knowing AND knowing where you are (yes, the app will send the location to whomever you designate as well).
Bravo, Mr. Njie for taking huge steps to bring technology to this fight for our lives! Want to help? Watch the above update video, and check out the GoFundMe page for the Legal Equalizer.

Streaming Battle Royal: Apple, Spotify, & Tidal Test For Sound Quality (Video)
July 28, 2015
You’ve heard the bickering on and offline, surely: Apple is the best because they are the OGs in the stream game. Nah, but Spotify improved on the i-streamers. But hold on, Tidal put the tech and bandwith work in to crush competitors…but ‘politics as usual’ hold ’em back (as Jigga might say).
Alright STOP!
Somebody get the results and let’s settle this like Maury would. The sound quality tests determined…

18-Year-Old Builds A Gun Firing Drone (Video)
July 22, 2015
Isn’t that always the way? Straight from the movies. Actually, straight from our history books. Humanity makes a revolutionary technological advance, and someone finds a way to weaponize it. Drones were already militarized by the time most of us found about about them in real life. In the civilian sector, we postulated about the ‘peeping’ aspects of drones. However, we relegated a lot of our thinking about this tech to the cool side (delivering food and beer, capturing images in new ways).
But now some young’n (Austin Haughwout) puts a GUN on one??? C’mon son.
Oh but don’t worry. The U.S. government is on it. They’re like… ‘Nobody, but nobody, is gonna make killer drones… but U.S. us.’
The FAA said Tuesday it is investigating whether Austin Haughwout of Clinton [Connecticut, USA] violated its regulations, which prohibit the careless or reckless operation of a model aircraft.

Coming Soon: Hankook iFlex Airless Tyre (Video)
July 22, 2015
Concept video above. Conceptualized a few years back, continuously improved since, the iFlex model is Hankook’s airless tire. And it may now be very close to production. Durable, stable, able to reach speeds of 130 km/h (or 81 mph), easier to produce, using recycled material, and promising no more flat tires to the consumer market really soon.
“Aiming to strengthen our technological leadership in the global tire market, we will continue to develop cutting edge eco-friendly and future-oriented tires.â€
– Seung-Hwa Suh, Hankook CEO and Vice Chairman
Yup, the car of the future will need some ‘new shoes’… and Hankook working on bringing ’em out like Jordans… now!

A Giant Robot Rumble? America, Are You Ready? Japan, Are You Ready? Let’s Get It On! (Video)
July 6, 2015
Double dog DARE you you do a search on ‘robot’ on this site! It’s just something that happened. I’ll cop to posting my more than my fair share of articles on robo-tech. Damn straight. Especially when dopeness like this keeps popping up around the Interwebs. Apparently, America (well, some group of Americans) has thrown down the gauntlet and challenged Japan – home to bad azz sci-fi, anime AND real-life robots – to a robo-duel!
“We have a giant robot. You have a giant robot. You know what needs to happen.”
Ohhhhhhh sh!t. DING DING dammit. Ding Ding! Let’s go! Hmmm… that Kuratas is looking mean though (posted on it earlier here).

The “Periscope” App is a Social Media Game Changer (Video)
June 23, 2015
Technology moves at a fast pace and the social media world moves even faster. Remember when My Space was the place to be? Then it was Facebook and of course now Twitter, Instagram, Snap Chat, Kik and many more exist. So you are probably thinking so what is the big deal about this new mobile app? Well put it to you like this when the creators were putting the technology together Twitter got word of it and purchased it for millions before they even released it to the public. Periscope allows you to have a live broadcast straight from your mobile phone with the ability for people to comment live and to interact. In the video Dr Boyce Watkins is joined by Michelle Martin of Urban Youth Racing School and she speaks on how people of color should take advantage and really get ahead of the curve using this new technology. Could you imagine not just shooting video of Police Brutality but having a live stream with people interacting? Also if there is a social event happening that the local news doesn’t want to cover no need for them you can broadcast it live in real time on your mobile phone! Like my brother Jayforce likes to say “This Changes Everything” LOL.

MIT Scientists Develop A Robotic Cheetah That Can Run & Jump (Video)
June 17, 2015
Robotics meet zoology at MIT: Scientists have nearly perfected designs for a robot cheetah.
Wait, wait! Doesn’t anybody over at MIT watch any sci-fi featuring enhanced robo-tech and/or animals? The Matrix, Planet Of The Apes…HELLO???!! So, cheetahs being high enough on the food chain to be sniffing our armpits, it’d be cool to make robo-cheetahs equipped with A.I. enabling them to run and jump without fatigue, right? No way, we’d have actual PREDATOR drones that could hunt and kill humans. Oh wait, we already do, huh?
Okay, so they’ll just come up with another name for the seek-and-eat cat-bots. Sigh. Talk about not knowing when to quit. Thanks for the sweet nightmares MIT… and VICE!
MIT’s cheetah robot can run and jump, will probably be sentient and slaughtering us all soon http://t.co/jKxwfqfz0K pic.twitter.com/eUbKa4OJjg
