eyeThe New Scientist reports that Candaian filmmaker, Rob Spence, is getting closer to making his new “eye-to-eye” documentary.

Mr Spence damaged his right eye in a childhood accident and was later given a false one for purely cosmetic reasons – now he wants that eye to become useful as well!

Between Spence and engineer Kosta Grammatis have succeeded in attaching a working red LED to Spence’s prosthetic eye.

It’s the first time that Spence and his team have managed to fit an electronic device (complete with power source) into the eye.

His goal is to create a prosthetic eye that contains a wireless video camera so that he can film his experiences.

A finished eye would turn him into the Eyeborg!!!

Get Your Free Skynet Enhancement Module

by Jay Garrett on February 18, 2009

skynet-joinI thought employing cats to advertise FEAR was a great idea but, frankly this is stacks cooler!

Terminator Skynet robots are popping up in the post.

SkynetResearch.com has cropped up promoting its vague goals to help advance mankind.

The best bit though is that they’re offering samples of real-life “robotic enhancement modules” to anyone that signs up - I’ve just ordered mine :)

One of the first to scoop theirs was Peter Sciretta from Slashfilm.com.

He filled in his details and in just over a week received “enhancement module model 101″ from Skynet Research.

He’s videoed the unboxing on Slashfilm where Peter shows the light-up device doing its thing.

Want to see what it does? Click here to find out.

This is all part of the marketing for the new Terminator film: Terminator Salvation but filling in a form to get a parcel from Skynet?  What’s the worse that could happen?…….

Check out the promo vid below.

A fully email ready phone that converts into an armed robot?
Oh yeah!!!!
Say OMG to the Blackberry Terminator and s’long Storm!
It’s got what you’d expect from the latest RIM model: Infra-red vision, dual low-caliber guns, video recording, 3.5G.
As awesome as it is it isn’t perfect.
Check out that keyboard – when the phone bot is in combat [...]

Terminator Skull DVD Player – The Shame

August 17, 2008 Click to read more →

It’s a sad, sad day.
One of the greatest robots being reduced to this – a novelty DVD player.
I wonder what Skynet would think – granted there was the whole “terminate”  thing but this is insulting.
Turning reclaimed skulls into harmless consumer electronics is kinda rubbing their noses in it – if they had any.
