The above pictured contraption, called Copernitron, features a PlayStation Move controller, a turntable, and a homebrew Helmholtz coil (you know, for canceling out interference caused by our planet’s magnetic field). By sending data to a Linux PC via Bluetooth, this bad boy will measure the Earth’s rotation, find geographic north, and determine altitude. Apparently, this is achieved by measuring the controller’s subtle movements as it spins around at 45 RPM. And while the PS Move gyros are much more accurate than those of any other controller on the market, they’re not too accurate: if they were, the designer points out, “ITAR might classify them as missile components. That’s why we can’t have nice motion tracking.” See it in action after the break.

Image: The Transport Politic I don’t want to perpetuate the US vs. China who-will-be-the-economic-superpower narrative that’s already rampant in our press enough these days, so let’s frame this one from another, even simpler angle — China is doing a bunch of really great stuff in clean tech that we should be doing too.

February 21, 2011 No Comment
Another Apple patent application has come to light that’s making us stop the daily grind for a moment and ponder the possibilities. This one talks about scattering a bunch of acoustic transducers (basically, microphones) throughout the case of a laptop. No, they aren’t there to pick up the sweet sounds of your humming along with Rihanna and, while the application doesn’t make it perfectly clear what their purpose is for, we’re liking Patently Apple’s conclusion that this is to enable acoustic commands. The application describes a microprocessor that can “interpret electrical signals generated by the one or more acoustic transducers as input.” The idea is that these transducers detect a finger making contact with the chassis and register those vibrations as gestures. A similar concept is demonstrated in a video below, so watch that then start dreaming. Dragging your finger along the bezel to scroll? A non-capacitive touchpad as wide as the keyboard? Music games that finally let you show off your finger drumming prowess?
