Video: Meet Palro, Fujisoft’s mini humanoid
Posted on February 1, 2010 | No Comments
Most of the robots we cover on CrunchGear have been built for research or entertainment purposes, but some of them do become available for the general public at some point. And today we can give you the Palro (Pal+robot) [JP], a soon to be marketed humanoid developed by Tokyo-based Fujisoft.
The little guy stands 39.8cm tall, weighs 1.6kg and boasts a whole range of features: 20 joints, five mics, voice recognition, mono speakers, a 3MP camera, Wi-Fi IEE 802.11 b/g/n, a USB port, an Intel Atom 1.6GHz processor, 1GB internal memory, 4GB flash memory, Ubuntu OS, a gyro-sensor, a three-axis acceleration sensor, eight pressure sensors in his feet, a distance sensor in his head, and a 7.4V/2,800mAh lithium ion battery as his power source.

U.S. military now wants 3D surveillance cameras. Avatar invented 3D, you know.
Posted on January 25, 2010 | No CommentsIn a sense, the following story can be summed up thus: the US military wants new, hi-tech equipment. That's not exactly breaking news, no, but there's an Avatar connection, so if the world could stop rotating on its axis for a moment... It's called Fine Detail Optical Surveillance, and the military wants Darpa to develop it. Think 3D spy cameras. Attach one to a Predator-type device and the boots on the ground—fresh-faced kids from the corn fields of Iowa—will be able to see the bad guys long before they know what's going on. Woo!

STMicroelectronics’ 3-axis MEMS gyroscope gives a new level of control to your mobile
Posted on November 16, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Games, Peripherals
Man, talk about timely. We heard right around 11 months ago that MEMS gyroscopes would be hitting an array of handsets in 2009, and while it's looking like that estimate will be just a touch off, you won't catch us kvetching with "early 2010." STMicroelectronics has just announced its new 3-axis MEMS gyroscope, which promises 360 degree "angular-rate detection for high-precision 3D gesture and motion recognition in mobile phones, game controllers, personal navigation systems and other portable devices." The gyro is said to provide two separate outputs for each of the three axes at the same time: a 400dps full-scale value for slow motion, and a 1,600dps full-scale value to detect and measure speedy gestures and movements. We're told that samples of the tech are available now with mass production scheduled for Q1 2010; and yeah PSP, it's totally cool if you keep sweating. NGage is about to be back... with a vengeance!

Review: Archerfish Mobile Video Intelligence System
Posted on July 17, 2009 | No Comments
I've used a number of video surveillance systems for a variety of purposes. In my experience, most of them are merely adequate. I've used Axis and Pelco solutions for different things, and have been fairly underwhelmed with both. It's a laborious, manual process to search through recordings to find stuff, and the interface for the various applications is pretty lame. As such, I was pretty excited to review the Archerfish "mobile video intelligence system."

Augmented reality (AR), the mixing of real-world data with computer-generated information, is currently a hot topic in the web world and is poised to play an even bigger role in the very near future. And cell phones in particular seem to be especially suitable as AR vehicles, meaning the devices will make it possible to impose graphical layers over real-world images while on the go.
