Researchers at the University of Manitoba are working on a robot that plays hockey. They called it Jennifer, after player Jennifer Botterill. The robot was built by the Korean company Robotis, and the university has modified it and is working on its hockey and skating skills. As far as George Carlin's three activities of hockey, Jennifer does pretty well with a puck, she could use some work on her skating, but can she fight? The project team hopes to get Jennifer into the the DARwin-op Humanoid Application Challenge in May. Link -via BroBible

What's next, 3D?
Eh, wait... It's been done.
100 years ago...
Eery. I would want to immerse in these, just endlessly looking around and wondering about these people and those places so long ago.
When I was a child I just could not imagine that in the time before my own appearance let alone so long ago in the world there also was colour. The Past was Black and White- Only the Present had colour and the colours faded away with time.
Just amazing. Wow.
