Crusher - futuristic Unmanned Ground Combat Vehicle (from gizmag.com)

Here is a really interesting article about the state of the art in unmanned vehicle research. What I found interesting in these articles was the references to these vehicles being capable of autonomous operation. I would have thought at this point based on our militaries experiences in Afghanistan and Iraq they would focus on remotely piloted versions of these vehicles.

Drowning at MIT. Really.

Seems that they have a mandatory swimming test at MIT that all students must complete in order to graduate. This gives pass / fail type classes a whole new meaning.

LED Sign (from digg)

Too funny. I found this on digg. It's a link to an application that lets you enter a message or a graphic that is then displayed on an LED Sign. I have no idea where the sign is but the execution is pretty good.
