Topobo Kinetic Robot System
Placed in Robotic |
|
Topobo is a construction kit with “kinetic memory”, which mostly means that you teach the little motors in its joints how to move by physically twisting and shaping them with your hands. Some parts will respond directly to your ministrations, while others are slaved to “queen” parts and mimic her movements.
The joint project from Hayes Raffle, Amanda Parkes, Hiroshi Ishii and the MIT Media Lab is still in its beginning stages, but until they get it properly commercialized, they’re only selling rather expensive starter kits: an “Experimenter Set” with 2 motors for $500; and a 24-motor, 1,000-piece “Classroom Set” for $5,000. That probably means your kids will be sticking with Capsela for the moment, but here’s to hoping that Topobo gets some figurative traction to go along with its literal motive abilities. It looks like a lot of fun.

Philips Shoqbox
I rarely use the clock radio in a hotel room. One, I don’t trust that it will work, and two, I don’t want to spend the time figuring out the typically Byzantine path to programming it. Lately I’ve been using my cell phone for an alarm, but I prefer music to the beep of my Treo. And I prefer my music to what plays on most commercial radio stations. The confluence of these preferences leads me to Philips’ ShoqBox Personal Sound System: A combination alarm clock, speaker system and MP3 player in a travel-size case....
