A drone floating in the sea: Give it a try?
Wave gliders is a weather warning drone that floats on the sea. The drone looks like a small boat, but it's even more flat. The yellow "ship body" is full of solar panels, yes, it's all powered by the sun. Wave gliders is equipped with cameras and climate monitors, as well as wireless communication devices.
As Hawaii hit, the drone's company LIQUID Robotics quickly deployed Wave gliders to the waters around Hawaii (too marketing), and as long as you @Holoholo_WG on Twitter, you can ask the drone a different question, such as its location, weather conditions, , air pressure, wind speed, wind direction and so on. Of course you can also get Wave gliders to take a real time picture for you.
Transformers near? MIT invents self-assembled origami robot
Scientists at Harvard University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology recently invented an "origami robot" that, once heated, changes from a piece of paper to a small robot crawling like a crab. The robot is made of five layers of laser material, including paper, copper, plastic, electronic components, and shape-memory polymers that will be assembled themselves after heating. Each time the robot changes, it takes only 4 minutes to complete the ultimate state of change. After deformation, it will be irregular and scurry, about 2 feet per second. As the research goes deeper, they can go faster.
The material of the origami robot is not rare, the material of the toy store can cost only 100 dollars. This kind of robot is not just a party game. Oh, they will be used to explore outer space and some of the more dangerous environment. For example, you can make it through gravel, and then in a collapsed building or tunnel deformation, to complete the search and rescue mission.
Smart Pet Collar Warkitteh: Let the Cats split the wifi in minutes.
Wired News, a security researcher named Gene Bransfield Kein Bransfield, developed a smart pet collar Warkitteh. Warkitteh added a chip called Spark Core to the common collar, designed custom coded firmware, built-in WiFi cards, small GPS templates, and batteries. Gene Bransfield brought the money circle to his family's meow Coco, letting Coco act as a spy, searching for a neighbor's WiFi network, and finding an easy to crack WiFi router.
Cost less than 100 dollars. Meanwhile, Gene Bransfield also uses Google API to develop a software that maps these WiFi hotspots to a map. Developers say the main purpose of this is to alert users to the safety of WiFi.
