Robotic Chick

Saturday, August 9th, 2008

Before robots evolve into androids they have to work their way up through the evolutionary scale, and barnyard animals are clearly at the cutest edge of robotic technology

I-SOBOT

Thursday, August 7th, 2008

The I-SOBOT can be controlled via voice commands or by the included remote. He has 17 fully functioning servo motors that allow him to perform a variety of complex motions, including doing a handstand! He also speaks, using over 200 words and phrases. The only drawback is that there is a slight chance of it becoming sentient and striking out against it’s human masters, but the chances of that happening only increase by 30% every day or two.

400 Watt Power Dome Mini Generator

Monday, July 28th, 2008

Are you plagued by blackouts? Hard to believe that happens in the 21st century, but for those of us in rural areas blackouts are a frequent problem, and usually at the worst possible times (like during a rerun of Star Trek). Instead of yelling in vain for Scotty to come and save the day, now you can break out the Power Dome Mini Generator! The generator has two standard AC outlets built into it and can run any of your household items for several hours. A laptop for example can be run for 4.5 hours on one charge.

The device also plugs into your car’s cigarette lighter, so you can have power on the road as long as their is gas to run your car. It also has a built in air compressor to help keep your car actually running on the road.

Unlike gas powered generators, the Power Dome Mini Generator is silent, and non-polluting. It’s simple to operate, just charge it 24-36 hours prior to use. It holds a charge up to 6 months, so you don’t need to be clairvoyant about when those blackouts might happen.
