Craig Ferguson gets a robot sidekick

Posted by Patrick  Published in Geek news, Virtual Reality

Grant Imahara, of Mythbusters fame, has been working on a robot sidekick for late night talk show host Craig Ferguson. The deal was struck over Twitter and was revealed last night. Imahara has worked on animatronic robots for movies so he’s able to make this robot’s jaw move, light up the eyes as well as have pre-programmed responses.  I love Mythbusters and all the hosts do a great job in everything they do, so I think if Ferguson decides to keep this robot for a long time, it should provide some good laughs.

Virtual autopsies..seriously?

Posted by admin  Published in Uncategorized, Virtual Reality

As the world goes deeper into the relm of virtural reality I guess it’s only natural that the exploration of dead also becomes intrenced in the workings of virtual reality. CT scans have really taken the medical fields into whole new worlds with the ability to find ansers to why loved ones pass on when traditional autopsies can’t find the answers. I think this is one of the cooler things I’ve seen recently in the medical field. It should help a lot of families get closer when they might not have gotten it the old fashioned way. Folks, this is a good story to share with those who bash the virtual world!
