Human and Robots

Visions of the Future


The future is not written yet and who knows whether robots are dangerous or not. What is for sure is that humans, being the curious beings, will develop new advanced generations of robots.
It happens so that people and robots go together in this life side by side, in some spheres of life they are even interchangeable and who knows into what this opposition “Human and Robots” will translate. Robots and humans that live and prosper together…Or robots will realize they don’t need that much…

Mr.Olympia 2011 Phil Heath

Phil Heath's interest in bodybuilding began shortly after playing college basketball at the University of Denver in 2002. He had a few friends that were competing locally and once he realized how bodybuilding enabled them to transform from the average guy into true mass monsters his interest in the sport grew. The spark that pushed Phil towards competing in his first show occurred when he went to his second local amateur show and met an IFBB Pro. After reading through numerous muscle magazines, along with having great friends that were very into bodybuilding, Phil was influenced into participating in a show. Phil's biggest reason for competing was to see how his body could transform with hard training and sound nutrition. To this day, Phil still loves bodybuilding because it provides him with an opportunity to learn more about his body and muscles, but more importantly because it allows him to learn about himself mentally and emotionally. Bodybuilding has given Phil a positive outlet that has now become his career, which he feels he is truly blessed to have.

How to Turn Your Monitor Into a Touchscreen

Using a computer mouse provides two levels of depth when interacting with content on a screen. One can just hover or can click. Hover allows receiving short descriptions, while click selects or performs an action. PreCursor provides this missing sense of interaction to touchscreens. Pranav Mistry from MIT is working on a project called PreCursor that can turn any regular computer monitor into a touch screen.

bed-design-1

Just hearing the title will tell you that this one of the best bed designs out there. This particular bed was designed by Janjaap Ruijssenaars and uses magnets to actually float in the air. In order to prevent the bed from moving about here and there due to any strong wind movements, it is tied down by four cables at each corner. One of the coolest beds in the world, but it comes at a whopping price of $1.53 million. But hey, dare to dream.
