04/20/2004 12:44 PMSheila and I got back last night from a four-day weekend in Las Vegas.
We went with some family and friends, stayed at the Paris hotel, had a
wonderful time.
Right before we left, we noted the announcement of
PulpFictio
n. You know what? It looks pretty good.
Only a masochist craves competition—but quality competition is a
sign of a healthy ecosystem.
At any rate, it’s probably a good idea if I talk more about

I’ll do, in a follow-up post.
From Vegas to the Battlefield
From Vegas to the Battlefield
04/16/2004 02:33 PMFeature recognition software designed to spot problematic gamblers
in Vegas casinos has proven so good that it will change the
battlefield of the future. Soon, UAV's will have software that can
anylize video and match targets to an existing database of objects.
Dubbed DIVOT (Imagery and Video Object
Tracking), this software is already being tested by the Air
Force.
"It starts beeping on this clump of trees," Cook said. "And they
had to drive the UAV about another two miles before they could get
close enough [to see] there was a vehicle underneath the trees."
The captain whose face had been loaded into the computer was
sitting in his truck eating lunch. "It found his face through the
trees, through the windscreen, in the shadows of the trees, and we
went, 'Wow, we need to explore this,'" Cook said.
Advances like this will be a field commander's dream.

Leaving Las Vegas
Leaving Las Vegas
01/16/2004 10:57 AMSorry for the absence, folks... I've just limped back into New York
from a lost weekend of fear and loathing in Las Vegas, during which
just about the last thing on my mind was this blog. Before I post
anything real - and I have several rants percolating - I want to thank
you for having maintained what I consider a commendable civility while
I was off contributing to the decline of civilization, despite your
passionately conflicting political beliefs. There's been froth and
pitch and a lot of wit. Best of all, you've been sounding like
grown-ups. (A virtue I've come to appreciate a lot more of late.) I
think the "constructive combat" I wished for in my last post may
actually be arising here. This can be a venue where the vectors of
opinion that presently rend our beloved country can come to appreciate
each other a little better, if only for our sense of humor. I don't
think either side is likely to win many converts. We're all pretty
convinced. But if we maintain our currently reduced level of
name-calling, we might grow back some of the tolerance that has become
all too rare among our fellow citizens and upon which democracy itself
depends. I be back at it myself as soon as I've had a chance to clear
my head. In that service, I'm off to find myself a latte. Since my
place here is in Little Italy, that will be easy enough to do. Might
even pick up a New York Times while I'm at it......

instead of fly? As

has respect for the road trip anymore. Haven't you people seen

VIA Technologies Demos Bots in Las Vegas
11/19/2003 11:42 AMLinux Electrons says that
VIA Technologies is demoing PC-Bots this week in Las Vegas.
Via
Technologies is a
maker of Mini-ITX motherboards and has taken initiative in working
with the
robotics community to power the Robotics Revolution. Mini-ITX boards
allow
robots to utilize the powerful of x86 platform but still allow for
efficient power
and small size. These tiny PC boards are compatible with Linux or the
Windows platforms
and are great for robotics.
The powerful PC-Bots that were showcased were the 912 Robot by
White Box
and the IO from
RoboDynamics.
They even had a
robot petting zoo for the
kiddies. If your robot is not PC based, perhaps now would be a great
time to upgrade and make your bot be a PC-bot too?
