Because the robotic apocalypse can’t come soon enough, this is a video from Chinese defense contractor Kestrel Defence featuring its Blood-Wing/Red Wing drone deploying a robotic war dog armed with a machine gun. So, if you were wondering what the beginning of the end looks like, this is definitely it.
This is a video of 1930’s London that’s been remastered, stabilized, and upscaled to high definition and 60FPS with AI. It’s also been colorized, but not necessarily historically accurately, presumably because Rose from Titanic was too busy contemplating why she didn’t scoot over and make room for Jack on that
In loose lips news, this is a video testing the Air Force’s new ‘Quicksink’ missile, capable of splitting even large ships in two and sending them to Davey Jones’s locker in a hurry. Wow! Thank goodness these didn’t exist when I was a pirate! “When were you a pirate?” During
Researchers at the University of Tokyo have found that adding robotic googly eyes that turn to gaze at pedestrians the car has identified help make them safer, by letting humans know the car has recognized them and (hopefully) won’t run them over. Plus the cars look way friendlier too —
Note: If you search for NASA DART on Google you get an Easter Egg. NASA successfully smacked an asteroid with a spacecraft traveling at 14,000 MPH in an attempt to alter its trajectory in a first-ever test of planetary defense, should an asteroid ever be discovered that’s on a collision
This is a short video of an incredibly fast conveyor belt sorting machine doing its thing, its thing being sorting objects into specific cardboard boxes, presumably to still get sent to the wrong address or lost in the mail after all its hard work. Where are the sex toys I
Tired of Saturn hogging all the ringed glory, Neptune recently showed off its own rings and moons for the James Webb Space Telescope, presumably hoping to score the centerfold in NASA’s monthly space erotica magazine Planetboy. Being able to see the icy giant’s moons was certainly cool, but, admittedly, its
This is a video showing the movement of the Taipei 101’s tuned mass damper during the recent 6.9-magnitude earthquake that hit the country. The tuned mass damper is a massive 16-foot, 660-metric ton sphere suspended between the 88th and 92nd floors of the building that swings to counteract any movement
