A Turing Machine is something that you just think about, it isn’t a physical machine. Well now it is! Mike Davey has spent some time to create one. Mike built his Turing Machine to look the part however inside you will fine a Parallax microcontroller as the heart. Via: Make and HackADay “A Turing machine is a theoretical device that manipulates symbols contained on a strip of tape. Despite its
Have you ever been cut off by the most irresponsible driver in the world? Well what you need is a Harpoon Car Attachment to teach them a lesson. Simply ram them with the harpoon and bring them to a stop, if you still aren’t satisfied release the tear gas. Via: TechEBlog
Carl has built some lasers that have been featured here in the past. Well he has sent in his latest creation. It is a small metal box filled with a microcontroller driven array of lasers! Thanks Carl. “My latest work using three lasers (red, green, blu-ray) combined with optics from a HD DVD drive mounted in something called an white fusion kit. I designed a driver circuit to control the
You think the guitar you own is high tech? Well does it have a 500MHz processor? Can you even SSH into it? I thought not. This MISA – Touch Pad Digital Guitar is packed with tons of technology but thankfully it outputs MIDI so you can just jack it into your existing gear and jam away. Thanks Michael “The guitar itself is CNC machined out of solid ABS plastic. This
What does it take to pimp out a Range Rover Sport into a limo? A little more than a paint and polish that’s for sure! Have a look at some of the build pictures that Midlands Limos sent in below for an idea of how invasive the process is. Next time I ‘m in the UK I will have to have a ride in this limo!
Thanks for a fantastic year! The start of a new one is just around the bend. Since everyone will be watching the clock in the next few hours, here are some clocks that are probably more interesting that the ones you will be watching tonight. 🙂
If you are going to build something you might as well over design and over build it right? If you don’t agree you can go and pick up whatever you need at your local Walmart. Here we have an excellent example of over engineering something, you can get spring loaded mouse traps for about a dollar, but there is no laser system, status LEDs, arming circuit and pneumatics in one
