Epson's World's Lightest Flyer Still
Smallest, Awesome
08/19/2004 07:35 AM
See, I saw that
Epson had released a new model of their "World's Lightest Micro-Flying
Robot" - you know, the one that was a big deal late last year - and
thought, "We've already talked about that. Nobody will be interested."
I was wrong, according to the emails, though, so I guess I better
mention it. The biggest difference between the old model and the new
one is that the update appears to be running untethered, although it
still flies with a bit of a wobble. It's too small to be used outside,
but I wouldn't be surprised to see some implementation of these
available for purchase soon. Although they have serious uses, too -
investigating accident scenes, etc. - with the Bluetooth and built-in
camera, it would make a perfect office toy, until you were fired for
industrial espionage.
Also, could the girl in the video be any less excited?

The "stout infantfish" has been identified as the smallest, lightest
animal with a backbone. The largest of only six specimen ever found is
just 8.4 millimeters long. Stout infantfish swim exclusively near
Australia's Great Barrier Reef and the Coral Sea. Scientists who
studied the fish at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography point out
that "roughly 500,000 of these fish weighed together would barely tip
the scales at one pound."

When Rumaisa Rahman was born 15 weeks before her due date at a Chicago
hospital, she weighed just 8.6 ounces, less than a can of soda. Three
months later, she now weighs 2 pounds 10 ounces. Rumaisa's twin sister
Hiba is slightly larger and may leave the hospital this month. Doctors
expect Rumaisa to stay for a few additional weeks, but fortunately the
prognosis is very good.

BrailleNote PK: World's Smallest PDA for

BrailleNote PK: World's Smallest PDA for
the Blind
06/30/2004 11:10 AM
The BrailleNote PK is the
world's smallest PDA for the blind, and one of the first small enough
to be carried around for daily use. Powered by Windows CE, the
relatively small [6.8" x 3.6" x 1.3"] unit has a mix of high-end and
low-end features, with a wide variety of communications options such
as Bluetooth and WiFi, Ethernet, and USB, but a relatively small
amount of RAM [16MB User/16MB RAM/32MB ROM], and somewhat surprisingly
(I'm serious), no LCD screen. In fact, all interfacing with the
BrailleNote is done via a built-in 180cell Braille display and an
8-key Braille keyboard. The unit also supports text-to-speech out
support, although not speech-to-text, if I read correctly.
It looks like a great unit, but it comes with a very steep price.
The BrailleNote PK lists for just under $5,000. With the amount of
geeky freedom this would afford many, though, it just might be worth
it.

Epson Creates World's Smallest MAV
Epson Creates World's Smallest MAV
11/18/2003 11:32 AMJCN Newswire says that
Epson is claiming to have developed the world's smallest flying
microrobot.
Epson developed the uFR (Micro Flying Robot) to demonstrate
the micromechanics technology using an ultrasonic motor and bluetooth
module for remote control. The uFR flys via two contra-rotating
propellers
and ultrasonic motor that has the world's highest power to weight
ratio. The flying robot can balance in mid-air using the world's first
linear actuator
stabilizer mechanism. Epson sold previous Micro Air Vehicle versions
such as the EMRos
and the
Monsieur flying robots, so I'm wondering if this one will be out by
Christmas to fly around my living room?

Robots being
unveiled. Unlike some other micro air
vehicles, these robots have onboard batteries (no power tether) and
are autonomous via radio link (as a side note, Rog-a-matic emailed me
that it could be that radio links
to robots are patented now?, weird!). Anyway, these micro fliers
could be used from anything like surveilance to hobby toys. It's a
small world after all!

Oregon Scientific MP100: Another World's
Smallest
08/18/2004 08:38 AM
Oregon Scientific is taking
a stab at the "World's Smallest MP3 Player" title, but considering
they don't throw a quarter or a finger or something into the picture
Tech-Digest has (which can be added to the pictures on their
barely-functional site for a total of... one) doesn't really tell us
much. What we do know, though, is that the £90 (~$165)
MP100 player has only 128MB of flash memory, so you pretty much
wrinkle your nose at it, too, no matter how tiny it is.
There are other players being launched, too, including the MP130
with an SD/MMC expansion slot. (See, a little expansion never hurt no
one.) And the MP140, not out for a few months, is listed as having a
"transparent display." Barring marketing gobbledegook, that could be
pretty interesting, considering that MP140 is only 6.6mm thick.

Converted toilet contains world's

08/23/2004 06:36 AMCory Doctorow: A Welsh brewery in a 5'-square former
toilet has reopened, brewing beer for the pub next door: it is the
"world's smallest brewery."
Margaret and Mark Phillips, who own the Tynllidiart Arms and the
brewery, said the beer had a secret recipe.
"The previous owner of the pub moved out two years ago and up until
two weeks ago the pub was closed and the brewery was too," said Mr
Phillips, who moved in just two weeks ago.
"We thought it would be nice to brew our own local beer and luckily we
had a brewer living a few doors down who was able to help.
