A poignant little video about what happens when humans bond with tiny robots, and what happens when the related technology becomes obsolete. (Be sure to watch the hi def video on the NYT site. Lovely.)

Google's New Project Is So Insanely Advanced It Will Blow You Away.
We live in a very exciting time in terms of human-computer interaction. Gestural functionality is not new, but seeing it in practice is amazing. Thinking about the implications of it on security, music, art, communication... it's absolutely mind boggling. If you have a few minutes, watch the video. It's amazing.
Googles New Project Is So Insanely Advanced It Will Blow You Away:
This chip is actually a miniature gesture radar that captures even the most complex hand movements at close range, at unbelievably hyper speeds and replicates hand gestures. Given the micro size of the chip, it can almost be fitted into literally anything. This technology, if the project is successful, can make the need to touch a device to operate it redundant.

tempescope - ambient weather display for your home
How cool is this? Completely unnecessary, but SO cool.
(via bored panda)
The tempescope is an ambient physical display that visualizes various weather conditions like rain, clouds, and lightning. By receiving weather forecasts from the internet, it can reproduce tomorrow's sky in your living room.
