 As you probably know The Pirate Bay is always hiding the location of their servers since governments can often cause a huge speed bump in their activity when they want to. The Pirate Bay Servers might soon be GPS Controlled Drones to allow the server farm to not only not be tied to a building on earth but it could be commanded to fly to a new location
  Just like us Sal can look around in his environment so he can watch things that are interesting. Sal uses the iLab Neuromorphic Vision C++ Toolkit to make the magic work. You can also download the code to play around with building your own version of Sal. Thanks for sending this in Lior. Read more here.  “Sal is a robotic head that makes head and eye movements to
The video above demonstrates what Vijay Kumar and his team are building. We have seen some toy quadcopters that have some impressive capabilities but I can’t wait till a tiny and smart quadcopter as agile as these are available. If you don’t have the time to watch the entire video make sure you see the flight demonstrations at 10:05. Thanks for sending this in Matt. Â “In his lab at
This Spray-on Antenna could revolutionize RF transmissions if their claims are true! Apparently nano capacitors are sprayed onto almost any surface to make it a powerful antenna. Via: PHYSORG Â “The company is promoting it as a multi-purpose antenna, simple and quick to assemble, mountable on almost any surface, for use in any environment. “Any” bears quite a range of possible end uses.”
Larry sent in his DIY Vacuum Motion Sensor Mouse Trap creation. “I built a mouse trap using an infrared motion sensor wall switch, an extension cord, a paper towel tube and a mini shop-vac. peanut butter is the bait. The mouse goes in the tube. The sensor senses it and turns on the shop-vac for 3 seconds. And voom, the mouse is inside the shop-vac. The sensor turns off
 This POV Hard Drive Clock with Etched Copper Numbers is a work of art. The custom board on the back keeps track of time, spins the motor and uses LEDs to light the correct number when it is in the proper location. The numbers have been etched out of a copper PCB to keep with the DIY theme! Thanks for the tip Bruce. “The MCU is an Atmega328
Thanks to Michael Chen for sending in his DIY Tesla Coil Build. His DIY Tesla Coil Instructable takes you through all of the steps he took to build it. He is still working out some bugs in his electronics since he is able to fry some components if he isn’t careful but it does seem to work great when it is working. Only take on a Tesla Coil project
