May 06, 2013 06:30 am | Edwin Dr. Who Building Block Set Are you a huge fan of all things Dr. Who? If you have answered in the affirmative, then you might be interested in the $25.99 Dr. Who Building Block Set, where it allows you to use your imagination and recreate your own time lord adventures. This is a chance for you to play with big boys' toys, without breaking the bank, of course. With the Dr. Who Building Block Set, you can replicate your very own miniature TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimensions in Space) travel vehicle, where it comes in the classic form of the blue police box. Apart from that, the Doctor and Miss Amy will also tag along for the ride. The Eleventh Doctor and Miss Amy Pond will be to accompany you on your journey via 53 constructive pieces, where the pieces are completely compatible with LEGO blocks, so the entire end result depends on your imagination, really. It is virtually limitless, somewhat akin to real time travel, although you might find yourself forking out more money eventually because you want to top it up with additional LEGO blocks.

Of course, there is a need for the proper kind of tools to make sure that your safety is ensured, such as the safety triangle. A safety triangle might not be enough if you are a paranoid android, which means the $99.95 4 1/2′ High Roadside Emergency Beacon would be right up your alley. This 4 1/2′ High Roadside Emergency Beacon will be affixed to the roof of a car, where it offers superior visibility in the event of an emergency. It is different from roadside flares, and is of course different from window-mounted triangles or a car’s flashers to boot, where all of them remain low to the ground. You can elevate this beacon to an extra height so that it can be seen from a distance, allowing first responders to locate a disabled vehicle and it also gives oncoming traffic additional time to slow down. The beacon comes with 16 ultra-bright red and white LEDs which will flash a 360-degree warning signal that lasts for up to 10 hours. The kit can be stashed away neatly in a trunk, and it holds a flashlight and orange safety vest. It will be powered by a trio of AAA lithium-ion batteries.

If you think so, then you would be pleased to hear that scientists in the US have managed to come up with a robot that is as small as the size of a fly, where it is capable of performing the agile manoeuvres of the ubiquitous insects. Known as the “robo-fly”, it is built from carbon fibre, tips the scales at a fraction of a gram, and boasts of super-fast electronic “muscles” to power its wings. According to the robot's developers from Harvard University, these small robots do resemble the real thing, and could eventually be used as an accessory when it comes to rescue operations. Definitely useful in the event of an earthquake, where it can navigate through tiny spaces in collapsed buildings to search for survivors. Unfortunately, the flight of this small robot insect remains tethered, as it will take a few more years before this flying robot is able to carry a power source. touted as the world's smallest flying robot, it will feature the fly-like agility which enables the insects to evade even the swiftest of human efforts to swat them. Of course, swatting a robot like this might break the heart of the inventor, since I am quite sure that these robots are not going to come cheap. Precise wing movements allow it to fly are swiftly and in an agile manner. This robot will constantly adjust the effect of lift and thrust by acting on its body at an incredibly high speed, hence the insect’s (and the robot’s) wings will allow it to hover, or to perform sudden evasive manoeuvres. Similar to a real fly, the robot’s thin, flexible wings will beat at approximately 120 times every second. This wing speed is achieved using a special substance called piezoelectric material, and will contract each time a voltage is applied to it. Other than rescue operations, I am quite sure that the military would have more than a passing interest in such a robot, too.

Well, they have come up with the safest lawn mower in the world, calling it the SmartMow, where the purpose of its existence is aimed in preventing lawn mower injuries in children. Not only that, RoboLabs will also do their part and donate some revenue from SmartMow sales to children’s charities so that kids are able to recover from lawn mower injuries. The new SmartMow robot lawn mower would be equipped with a docking station, coming in a shade of green. The SmartMow robot lawn mower would be a safe, environmentally friendly, affordable solution that helps you maintain your lawn while making sure that the little ones around your home would remain safe and sound from lawn mower injuries. Lawn mowing is definitely not an activity meant for kids, since it is not safe, and each year, traditional lawn mowers have resulted in injuries to the little ones. It is sadly, a growing trend, and stories of such incidences increase each year. Other than making sure that kids should remain 100 yards away from all lawn mowers at all times, which is nigh impossible, the other alternative would be to develop safer technology. The SmartMow robot lawn mower has not been realized just yet, as it is right now under incubation as a KickStarter campaign that is aimed to ensure that traditional unsafe lawn mowers will eventually become obsolete, replacing them with the safest robotic lawn mower in the world. The new SmartMow will feature a robust mechanical design, cutting edge technology, and makes use of high quality parts which result in a weather-tight, heavy-duty robot. Thanks to state of the art proximity detection technology, this system prevents cutting blades from spinning in a fraction of a second. This Kickstarter campaign has a fixed funding goal of $14,000, and fret not, if the funding goals are not reached, all of your contributions will be returned in full.
