Wall climbing spybot = $14,000

Wall climbing spybot = $14,000 06/04/2004 12:09 PM
This $14,000 wireless spycam purportedly climbs all sorts of vertical surfaces. I wish I could see a video of it in action.

"A revolutionary, new remote controlled (R/C) robot. The SpyBot Climber easily scales many smooth and uneven vertical surfaces – wall board, plaster, brick, cinder block, and siding are negotiable for this versatile robot. It can even go across sturdy ceilings if placed there first – although it can transition from a horizontal (ground) surface to a vertical one, and back, it can not go from a vertical to an inverted surface or directly around corners unassisted."

Okay, if you're not a filthy pervert, skip to the last paragraph. Thanks.

So what I need from you is $14k. I know it sounds like a lot, but if you cough it up I can get you one of these SpyBot Climber R/C robots that traverse and adhere to all sorts of surfaces, like the brickwork on that building across the street and you'll be able to wireless transmit images from the apartment of your 100% authentic girlfriend. Sure, you haven't talked to her yet, but with after reconnoitering her place for a while you'll be able to finally break the ice with openers like, "Hey, I'm out of toilet paper, too!" Okay, now go away.

For everybody else, isn't creepy how much this looks like a normal device, like a service box or something? Except most gas meters don't crawl up the side of buildings, at least not during the day. I wonder if the 'patented technology' allows it to stay in place even when the battery runs out? It better for $14,000.

BEA: huge adoption curve climbing very
fast for Linux. 03/11/2003 09:43 AM

From Computer World's interview with BEA's CEO Alfred Chuang:

What Linux trends are you seeing with BEA software?

Huge adoption curve climbing very fast for BEA over the last six to nine months. A lot of focus in the financial services marketplace, where there's a lot of experimentation and initial deployment going on with Linux on Intel. And I think the motivation in that arena is simplification and cost reduction, so they are looking to buy significantly less expensive hardware.

What's the breakdown of platforms on which BEA software is running?

About 50% is on Sun, and about 23%, 24% is on Hewlett-Packard. Hewlett-Packard has both Intel and non-Intel platforms in there. And then it drops off pretty quick. IBM hardware, I think, is 5% or 7%. In some countries, we sell a lot of IBM's hardware.

What about the Linux operating system?

Linux is around the 15% to 20% range, which has climbed pretty quickly.
