Sort by Neatorama (Free subscription) - 02/22/2008
Johnny Lee, a PhD student at Carnegie Mellon, appears to have invented one of the most promising home virtual reality displays I’ve ever seen. To do so, he attached the standard Wii sensor bar to a pair of glasses and put the Wii remote on the TV (essentially reversing the typical usage). The [...]

Where it was once an opaque techno-fabulous term used by Q in James Bond flicks, or forming the dubious core of a Star Trek episode, we've now got a word that actually has meaning for the average TV viewer. "Prototyping" arouses interest and fascination while still feeling accessible, sort of like a sexier version of building a birdhouse in...

Sort by Techdirt (Free subscription) - 10/28/2008
If you read the angry comments we get from self-proclaimed "inventors" whenever we write about patents around here, you might get the impression from them that if you can't protect your ideas, there's simply no reason to be an inventor.

Top 5: Nintendo on YouTube
Sort by Nintendo Wii Fanboy (Free subscription) - 07/28/2008
Filed under: Top Five When describing people like us, the media tends to churn out some pretty hideous labels. One of the more sickening terms is "the YouTube Generation." As though our entire existence revolves around Miss Teen South Carolina and Rickrolling .

You know what? I'm a smidge tired of writing about this team this week. I want to see us play again before I'm ready to tip my feelings one way or another about this team. And I sense from many of us that I am not alone. Until we play, I have nothing really to say. Or rather, I'm having a hard time sorting out the conflicting thoughts flooding my head this week. As one commentor said, I believe datruth4life...

Virtual Surgery - is Wii for Me?
Sort by Dr. Wes (Free subscription) - 01/18/2008
It seems there's real push these days for ways to train our future surgeons without having to get their hands wet. By playing a few Nintendo Wii games, surgical residents improved their performance on a laparoscopic simulator compared to their non-practiced counterparts. I'm not sure why practicing with a Wii to improve upon another virtual experience is big news, but hey, I don't make the rules. But...
