Hey guys!!! I need your help!

Somehow being able to remotely recall goats back to the recreation pen... I guess 6this would involve equipping each goat with a PDC that supported bluetooth, and then teaching them to read. Or maybe react to an incessant buzzing in their ear that gets loud and annoying if they either a) move in the wrong direction, or b) stop moving altogether. This could be used to allow them to home in on the recreation pen. Hmmmm.... sounds do-able...

"Smart Rooms," its where you set up a sensitive microphone in a room and its connected to a deicated computer using the Speech SDK. The computer is also hooked up to speakers so it can respond to comands that the user request. -Steven Visit Ltpb.8m.com

Cold water fusion that works?

Melissa_N

hehehehe thanks for the idea... but I somehow don't think my teacher would want to see that.... hehehehe LOL Melissa

Melissa_N

Thanks!!! hmmmmm... I like I like...... do you know of a URL where I can get more info on it? what about the rest of you...? hehehehe any more interesting stuff? :) Melissa

What I'd like is for my PDA to wake me up in the morning as an alarm, go through my Outlook calender and read out to me ("speech") my appointments for the day and then tell me who sent me mail during the night. It would also be nice if it could switch on the coffee maker too :-D Michael :-)

I don't know about new technologies. However, about using the technologies we currently have. PDAs just started to be used by doctors to write medical prescriptions, and submit them to the patient’s pharmacy. This will save trees (paper), ensure the correct prescription is given to the patient (no more deciphering scribbles), and the pharmacy does not need to call the doctor to verify each prescription. There aren't that many doctors with this yet, so I expect this to really start gaining some speed. The tv glasses (the ones with transparent tv screens) just started to be used by architects on constructions sites. So that the construction workers can actually see what they need to do while doing it. It’s on its early stages (Boeing is also using this for its planes), however I also expect this to gain speed. Etc. Rodrigo

Hey, a really cool project that might change the world.. what there was a website for Win32 programmers? They could post code, ask questions, post messages, etc. Oh wait, already been done. :-O This isn't really software related, but there is "HomePlug". It is a standard that allows you to use regular outlets as network connections. I think this has been tried in the past, but there was never a real standard. Also perhaps one of either Passport/.NET or the Liberty alliance... that is, a uniform way to log on web sites and transmit name, credit card, etc. Or VoIP (voice over IP - e.g., using IP and networking instead of standard phone lines)? The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Hey Melissa, Microsoft Research is doing some real cool stuff in this area. Here are some links that go a little further beyond the initial "Smart Rooms" suggestion. http://research.microsoft.com/coet/ http://research.microsoft.com/coet/telep\_page.asp http://www.research.microsoft.com/research/coet/Camera/MM2001/paper.doc http://www.research.microsoft.com/research/coet/Camera/chi2001/Omnidirectional/paper.doc Hth, ~Cliff

I think it was Colin who posted about Nano Surgery yesterday. I don't know if this will help, but here is the link: http://science.nasa.gov/headlines/y2002/15jan_nano.htm?list672961 Good luck.

Also: Computer Circuits made with nanotubes.. This will definetly make the bigest changes, since it will make processors with more transistors posible.They are only a few molecules thick, and can substitute the current way we build chips. Or computers (chips) made out with genes (they are superfast, and can make multiple calculations simultaneously). IBM has some good papers on this, also Scientific american. Rodrigo.

Incredible as it might seem you are correct in one sense Paul Normally it is called cold fusion. However I think Alex was making a subtle joke Paul, Because cold water fusion is more than just a dream and it actually works. Have you had a cup of coffee or "tea" today, if so you used cold water fusion in heating the liquid. Now do you see the joke Alex made ? Sorry for pouring cold water on your post. :-) Regardz Colin J Davies

Go'dang - you caught me Paul. I have no idea where that "water" came from. It's just cold fusion. So **that's** what the preview button is for.

Actually, there is cold water fusion. When you take the sea water (cold water) and take the deuterium (?) and convert it up the chain (hidrogen if i remember right) you get energy. This is cleaner than the current nuclear reactors. But it is not a reality yet (though the europeans were really close a few years back, I think they are currently reviewing the data or something). I don't actually remember the whole thing (it happen a few years ago, and I havent read anything else on the subject since). To make a long story short.. There is Cold Water Fusion http://www.google.com/search?q=cache:tpoE3FCxbIoC:architecture.mit.edu/house\_n/web/resources/articles/Boston%2520Globe%2520Online%2520-%2520Sunday%2520%2520Focus%2520-%2520Lost%2520in%2520space.htm++"Cold+Water+Fusion"&hl=en Rodrigo.

If I had that kind of inovation I would be running to the nearest patent office. A few ideas though: - Anything involving security and the "war on terror". - Various emerging technologies to automatically update cars / planes / boats on the weather conditions, traffic, etc. - MEMS (micro electronic mechanical systems). Unlike nanotech, MEMS has real world applications. For example most air bag sensors are MEMS. Any application where a small sensor or other simple gizmo is needed would be a candidate for MEMS. - Of course there's always the coming AI revolution (be here any decade).
