Fun links

My inbox is growing, so I need to spend time to day thinning it out. Ouch.

Luxury cars run on 20+ million lines of code. Wow.

A student built a neat hexapod. According to the story, parts came from Crust Crawler Robotics, though I can't find them on that web site. It's powered by an on-board Intel Atom packaged as the Fit-PC2. Very impressive! Here's the video:

It looks like some research groups are making progress on the nanocam featured in Alex's body book!

Here's another video showing applications of that idea. It's a year old, but still seems like a simulation.

My list:
  • Cal Dan Stutts
  • Create test 2 for Micro
  • Work on paper review
  • Work on review paper revision
  • Write recommendations
  • Make SECON hotel reservations

Family favorites

It's always interesting to see what Alex and Daniel like. Some of their favorites, found during the snow and cold weather recently:
  • Why it's important to drive carefully on ice.
  • What cold animals do in a Florida zoo.
  • A water balloon to the face.
