Hands-On With The Vuzix Wrap 920AR Augmented Reality Glasses: Fun, Shame About The Lousy Resolution

Taking design cues from the Oakley Thump MP3 player sunglasses is never a good idea. But that’s not the only fault these Vuzix Wrap 920AR glasses have. The resolution sucks. https://gizmodo.com/oakley-thump-2-hands-on-139339 Unless you’ve never picked up an iPhone or Android handset—or don’t have boasting friends with them—you would’ve heard of augmented reality, right? These glasses…

Google Uses Free Holiday Wi-Fi To Promote the Nexus One

The Tweets are flying with reports that upon connecting to Google’s free holiday Wi-Fi, people are getting redirected to Google’s Nexus One page. Smart, sure. But is it fair play, or does this self-promotion spoil Google’s charitable act? Travelers are reporting that, in many airports, connecting to Google’s free Wi-Fi redirects browsers to the Nexus…

The Secret Crossover Between Star Wars And Blake’s 7

Star Wars takes place long ago in a faraway galaxy, and the BBC’s low-budget space opera Blake’s 7 takes place in our dystopian future. So why does one badass bounty hunter appear in both series? It’s obviously a crossover. The eagle-eyed masterminds at Atomic Donkey #0 pointed out that you can see bounty hunter IG-88…

Hands-On With The enTourage eDGe Dualbook: If You Want A Tablet AND eReader, This Is For You

So many gadgets around, so little cash with which to buy them. That’s where convergence comes into play—and the enTourage eDGe dualbook is a great example. I’d get one myself, if only they weren’t so damn big. https://gizmodo.com/entourage-edge-dualbook-on-sale-in-february-for-490-c-5442555 It looks like a laptop, with the left side devoted to a 9.7-inch e-paper screen, and the…

Hands On Casio’s EX-FH100 High Speed Exilim Camera: Slow Mo Tech is Maturing

I love Casio slow motion cameras, even if their stills are generally not all that great. The new EX-FH100 is pocketsized, has a 10x zoom and a new 120frame per second mode that doesn’t have low light issues. Love it. Older cameras would be impossible to use at 300FPS indoors, because the grain and exposure…

Taser, not content just helping cops electrocute old people and the handicapped, has decided to focus some of its energy on stopping sexting and texting while driving. Not with electrocution, sadly.

Invisibility Cloak Technology Back On Track; Wand Technology Still Lacking
