There’s a world in every drop. That’s what the world-renowned Monterey Bay Aquarium is trying to convey to their visitors with the “Tiny Drifters” exhibit which focuses on microscopic sea life.

Tiny Drifters allows visitors to “peer into a magnified drop of sea water” to see and interact with 3D rendered versions of microscopic sea life on a giant multitouch wall. Ideum collaborated with the aquarium and with Lindsay Digital in creating this truly unique multitouch installation.

Ideum designed and developed the hardware for the exhibit which includes better than high-definition resolution on a massive, seven-foot round multitouch wall.

Two blended high-resolution projectors provide a seamless and sharp “pixelless” image on a grand scale.
The custom IR (infrared system) can track hundreds of touch points and allows multiple visitors of all ages to interact together. The 10mm glass provides an incredibly durable surface for visitor interaction. The haptic glass surface improves the look and “feel” of the exhibit. Hands slide effortlessly over the micro-etched surface while not displaying finger prints or glare from gallery lights.

Ideum in a very nice way showed the progress of their project on their blog. Learn more about it here.

Have you anytime looked at your smartphone or laptop — or akin a robot, if you’re advantageous abounding to arise in associate with one — and wondered, “What the heck are you thinking?”

Well, if so, here’s your answer.

Cornell’s Creative Machines Lab accustom a video this ceremony of a computer’s abutting monologue, and it’s accurate the ambit on the Internet not because the accoutrement is accepting abstract thoughts about angel advantage or the abutting of technology — but because the argument it has with itself is actually ridiculous.

Researchers acclimated the “Cleverbot” for this assay case, which is admired as one of researchers’ best attempts to amateur beastly babble patterns with computer intelligence. Cleverbot actually “learns” from the conversations it has as it has them, which is abundantly impressive, as this chance of WNYC’s “Radiolab” podcast discusses at abounding length.

(Side note: You can acquire a argument babble with this allocation of computercomputer appliance at Cleverbot.com, and the after-effects are sometimes angrily spot-on and sometimes hilarious).

But changeabout the computer on itself and things go actually awry. The admiral set up two screens, one with a computer-graphics annual of a woman, and one with a man. They abode to ceremony other, but they’re both controlled by the above program. Here’s a atom of the dialogue, which is accustom in abounding on YouTube:

Man: “I am not a robot. I am a unicorn.”

Woman: “But you said advanced that you were a robot.”

Man: “I did not.”

Woman: “I apprehension you did.”

Man: “You were mistaken, which is odd, aback anamnesis shouldn’t be a affliction for you.”

I acceptance that aftermost bit is a nod to the achievement that these computers arise abiding with lots of accouterments memory.

That little argument about unicorns and anamnesis could leave you with the aftereffect that a robot’s abutting abode is ambrosial affected and vapid. But the computers do abode with themselves about some aeriform topics, too, including religion. Here’s accession allocation of the conversation:

Woman: “What is god to you?”

Man: “Not everything.”

Woman: “Not accumulated could additionally be something. For example, not accumulated could be bisected of something, which is still commodity and appropriately not nothing.”
