Nano Technology Experts (the study of manipulating the mass of an atomic and molecular scale) have demonstrated the world's smallest Christmas card. So small by more than 8,000 small cards that can fit if placed on a stamp.

The card is made at the University of Glasgow. Said to be the smallest in the world and can not be seen with the naked eye. Programs School of Engineeering of the campus that makes the design. Similarly, as quoted from the IET, Saturday (25/12/2010).

"Our Nano Technology is one of the best in the world. Smallest Christmas cards can also show the world what this technology can do. This process only takes 30 minutes. The process of the design was the one who takes a lot of time," said Professor David Cumming .

"This card is 200 micro-meter width and length of 290 micro-meters. You can meet the standard A5 card to 500,000 small cards," added Cummings.

For the coloring card is done by a process called 'plasmon resonance' in aluminum foil film made in the James Watt Nanofabrication Centre, University of Glasgow.

Parties to the University of Glasgow said that Nano technology is very important its application in the real world in the future.

To enjoy a three-dimensional content on the TV screen during the audience is always obliged to use special glasses. However, from now on, it no longer. Toshiba has pioneered the LCD TV products that can display 3D images without depending on glasses again alias can simply be enjoyed with the naked eye.

Kinect is getting 100s of hacks everyday, and thanks to Kinect driver for windows 7, there are now infinite new possibilities.

The latest and the Best Kinect Hack, Mod comes from a student at MIT. Kinect has been hacked to use camera with a Roomba cleaner to create iRobot KinectBot that can recognize human beings and respond to their gestural commands. Previously, we’ve seen how a Roomba can be hacked enable you to Google Your Home with Roomba Bot.

The project leverages the Kinect’s ability to map terrain in 3-D and to recognize and respond to human gestures that can be processed combined with aerial drones and rapid-response teams to launch rescue operations.

Watch the video for a closer look at the mod:

The project’s founder, Robbel, calls it a “weekend hacking project.” Imagine what Microsoft’s Robotics team (or some other robotics team) might be able to do with its potential in the future.

The most hackable gadget (Kinect) is actually a $150 deal that opens up the option box for everybody. We can build a full Robot with Kinect eyes that lives in the real world like a human being understanding the dynamics of your living room, learning every bit of it.

Jim used to have a buffalo as a pet, but the animal named Bailey Sr. died when he was 8 years old because of an accident on the farm. So the man got a baby buffalo and named him Bailey Jr.

Well, he also loves to join them for dinner and evening television. I wonder what the bedroom arrangements are like? Maybe we shouldn’t go there.

Would you do this at - 36C? I would never do it, I simply couldn't. But these people from a local club in Krasnoyarsk went swimming in the Yenisei River on December 12, while the air temperature was -36C. The Yenisei River goes through portions of northern Russia and Mongolia before depositing into the Arctic. I don’t know how they are doing it, but judging by the look on their faces it can be said that they enjoy it a lot…It’s just crazy! I’m freezing now.
