How will we play tennis in 2083? From the looks of things, Lacoste believes we will be in a virtual room with collapsible rackets and cool looking robotic suits. Although, I have to admit that the video after the break portrays it as more like a futuristic version of racquetball to me—but either way, it is a sport I could definitely get into.
This unnamed robot by SRI International has a useful trick—it can climb walls using the principle of electro-adhesion (what we generalized as “static electricity” as kids, when we’d rub balloons on our heads and stick them to walls). But what’s most promising is that the robot needs only a “very small amount of power” to stick to surfaces that can be covered in dust and other debris.
There are laptop cooling pads, and we’ve got to hand it to Enermax for building the biggest and silliest one we’ve ever seen. The Aeolus cooling pad features just a single fan, but it’s an 8.66-inch diameter monster, capable of reducing temps by 22 degrees Celsius (71 degrees Fahrenheit) while only putting out 20dB of noise. On top that, it’s got integrated blue LEDs for additional nerd cred — although we’re wondering how you’re supposed to actually see them while your furnace of a laptop is parked on top. Should be around now for about $70, we hear.
