One of Indonesian students in Germany has been involved in the construction of a Light Following Robot. That particular guy called Bawono Langgeng who happened to be my friend. This robot is mounted with two sensors, left and right, to detect the presence of an incoming light. Once the robot has determined the position of the light, it will move towards it until it is close enough to the light. If you are wondering what he looks like, he is the person on the furthest right at the end of the clip.
VPHO is a mobile application software that has been launched early on this month and it is available in iPhone and Android device for free. This application is a part of my work involvement and it reserves as an all-in-one communication means to accomodate your interaction with your friends and colleagues. So, let’s dive in to what this application could offer you.
Enjoy Calling Friends Without Relying on Expensive GSM Call
With VPHO, you can call your friends just like using a normal GSM call without the price of making a GSM call. With Wi-fi or 3G capability, you can reach out to your friends and be in touch with them. You do not have to worry about making expensive international phone call to your friends abroad as long as you have internet connection at hand. Phone call quality is design to accomodate your comfortable calling experience with stable noise reduction and effective bandwidth usage.
Personalize Phone Call with Video Call
Much like other communication-oriented application, VPHO is equipped with easy-to-use Video Call. You can use your camera to display what’s going on during your phone call or interact with your friends during your conversation with them.
Multiple Party Phone Call Capability
Phone call is not exclusively between a person and the other anymore. With conference call capability, you can involve more than 2 people in a phone call or video call. Have a need to bring down discussion with your friends about the events you interested in? Use the conference call feature to discuss your topic of interest with your friends.
Chat-Addicted? We Got You Covered!
Of course, we haven’t forget about how you love chatting with your friends and colleague by sending them text messages. So, we build an independent chat messenger inside the application for you to text your friends. You can send pictures, videos, or file to your friends by using this chat messenger and we also add some comfort-oriented features to the chat messenger that you can try out.
Easy Contact Management
Sometimes, you are to lazy to search for your friends that uses VPHO and add them to your contact list. Not to worry, we build an automated phone book synchronization scheme to recurse your phonebook contact and add them to your VPHO contact if they uses VPHO. Therefore, you don’t have to manually add your friends all over again and can start a conversation with them immediately.
So, what are you waiting for? Download this application right now and be connected with your friends. Bare in mind that this application is still new and we are constantly trying to improve it, please make any review, complaints, or feature suggestion that you might want for this application to have. Thanks.
This is a project done by the Deutsches Forschungszentrum für Künstliche Intelligenz GmbH (DFKI) that I involved in. The project basically revolves around the development of an automotive navigation system. This automative navigation system has a couple of enhanced features.
The Route calculation features the calculation of the shortest route to arrive at a designated destination. Not much of comment about this feature since it is a basic feature of an automotive navigation system. It also features a text-to-speech synthesizer for notifying the direction to go. Again, not much comment about this basic feature.
What’s interesting about this Automotive Navigation System is that it is equipped with a Street Foresighting System. This feature uses a similar network topology of peer-to-peer which in this case the car that is equipped with the navigation system can broadcast traffic information to other cars. This Street Foresighting System reports traffic congestion status and the system can intelligently redirect any route that is observed to have slow traffic rate.
Not only that, this navigation system is also equipped with obstacle reporting system which is observed by a camera installed in the car. Obstacle such as a broken down vehicle or a road construction can be reported to other cars to avoid any potential accidents to occur.
The system is currently under test and the interaction between the user and the system is temporarily used with a keyboard and mouse.
As promised, I have more Utaite news for all those fans out there! Nano’s debut album ‘NANOIR’ officially goes on sale today! Most of you probably have never heard of Nano because up until about a year ago, she was virtually unknown throughout NND. Known for her strong, tomboyish voice, Nano grew up in New York City and as a result, speaks both Japanese and English fluently. Known for both her covers of Vocaloid and Avril Lavigne songs, Nano has made quite a name for herself in the utaite world.
In April, she will be singing the opening to the 2nd season of the anime Phi Brain.
NANOIR is currently available on Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B006DUHQBM) and features popular Vocaloid songs such as ‘Just Be Friends’ and ‘Calc’ as well as her own original song called ‘Magenta’.
OK, I can’t be the only one here who remembers the non floppy floppy disks.
Well this person found the single most amazing thing to do with them. Its something I used to dabble with, so I understand mostly what he did. It’s still awesome to see it in action doh. Kind of beats my radio I made, out of a 9volt battery, some transistors/resistors/wire and a piece of cardboard.
Things like this, I truly love, and its things like this that got me into electronics & experimenting in the first place…
I nearly fell out of my chair when I saw this update and then proceeded to nearly faint. Anyways, the new Korean Vocaloid3 has been announced! Here’s the basic information on her:
SeeU – SV01 시유
Age: 17
Height: 159 cm
Weight. 44.5kg
Genre: Kpop, Ballad pop
Range: C3 ~ C5
Tempo: 60~ 170 BPM
I don’t know much about her yet but I would like to say a few things. Her voice is extremely realistic for a Vocaloid, but she does sound a tiny bit like a Korean version of VY1. Her design reminds me a bit of a blonde, grown up Iroha for some reason but I think she will be a hit. Here’s a little demo of her voice!
Before I put the song along with its video down, I suppose I should tell you why I decided to choose this. So today, I was combing through youtube for some suitable Japanese song that I could cover [yes I sing for fun but that's not important] and while I was scrolling through numerous favorites and play-lists, I happened to look down at my iPod and realize that the last episode of Angel Beats in English had been released. After spending a few minutes in shock, I remembered this one song played back in episode 10 during Yui and Hinata’s confession. I didn’t know what it was called so I spent about ten grueling minutes trying to find it. I finally got the song-Ichiban no Takaramono-and I thought that I should share it with the rest of you guys. Seriously, this song almost always moves me to tears. What was originally supposed to be me on a hunt for a song to cover instead turned into a tribute for the last episode release in English. I love you, Angel Beats!
If you have a good memory, you might be able to remember a Cendrillon post I did a while back with Che:Sakurai singing the guy part and Vip:Tenchou singing the girl part [genders reversed]. Anyways, after getting over my laziness, I decided to go find the entire album to share with you guys! Surprisingly, it wasn’t that hard to find so I guess that if I had been up to it, I would have been able to deliver you this package of amazingness a long time ago. Curse me and my I-don’t-want-to-do-anything-but-listen-to-the-lazy-song-by-Bruno-Mars-attitude.
Ahem, anyways, a word or two about the tracks and the album. It’s in a zipped format naturally, so I hope that you have some sort of extracting software to be able to be blown away by this. Like stated above, the genders of the Nico Nico Douga singers featured in this are reversed. The girls sing the guy parts, and the guys sing the girl parts. Sadly, there is no Piko or Sekihan in this album [sorry my fellow fangirls] but there are plenty of other amazing singers as well! You may recognize a lot of these names. I know most of you know Koge…right?
Every time I listen to this, I’m still super amazed at just how talented these two are. This track is from a CD where the main theme is…trap singing. Of course, for those of you who don’t know, that is to say that the singers sing like their opposite genders. Che, who’s singing Kaito’s part is actually a girl (you can totally confirm it from listening to her other dubs like Mozaic Role on youtube) and Vip, who sings Miku’s part is a guy (I’m pretty sure he is…to my extent of knowledge) Anyways, let’s just say I’m uber impressed…and hopefully, you guys will be too. Now excuse me while I go fawn over Clear’s voice…*sneaks out the backdoor and hopes no other Clear fangirls find me)
Crpyton’s a roll these days. Two new vocaloids, Vocaloid 3 engine arriving by the end of the year, Gumi Extend, and now this: An Append for KAITO! Honestly, this sent shivers up my spine…really, he sounds so much more human now. Even if you’re not a big fan of Kaito before this, I think you’ll like him just a bit better now…
The excitement of the weekend may be wearing down, but I still have to tackle a trip to an amusement park tomorrow for a school field trip (it’s nothing educational believe it or not), so I won’t be posting tomorrow either. Instead, I want you guys to enjoy this little edition of Glow mixed with the song Top Secret. If you’re a member of YTChorus like me, chances are you’ll already know this song. Enjoy!
Ahem…I was browsing through the popular cosplay section of Deviantart and stumbled upon this by chance. In a way, this inspired me to introduce the ‘Featured Cosplay Shot’ segment of Randomness Thing. (We are quite getting into cosplay these days, aren’t we?) Anyways, this is a Death Note cosplay that simply goes by ‘Movie Poster’. The reason it drew my attention so much was simply because the shot looks so surreal. The chipped off paint on the walls, the lighting, even the obviously weird Ryuk cosplay in the middle of the floor seems to give this photo a really eerie touch. I recommend you don’t look at it at like, midnight.
Anyways, my point isn’t to talk about the scenery (as much as I like it), but about the cosplayers. Alodia and Rick pull off a perfect Misa and L (their poses are very convincing). Light (Jan) and Ryuk (Diego) both seem a bit slouched and disinterested, or maybe it’s just my imagination. And Near (Cris) and Mello (Ashley) are looking great in the background.
Well, it’s Monday, I’m tired and half-dead. Since Souza and Kazuki have been hogging the page with their junk, I’ll add to the pile of crap. This is a Wallpaper I found on Zerochan.net. As you can see, it’s the Kagamine Twins. I want you to look VERY CLOSELY at the twins. They’re dancing, right? WRONG!!! Look again! If you guys like images like this, I’ll post more of them…ho ho ho…*falls asleep*
Ugh…I was out partying all last night and I’m still in a daze. Anyways, since I’m still not fully awake, I’m going to go grab some coffee. You guys can enjoy this Spice! nico rendition. Oh and girls, grab a few tissues. I have a feeling you’re going to have a nosebleed.
My life is rather dull this week and I don’t have any plan to go out. So I went checking on Randomness Thing and saw that Kesuki-san has made a comment on White Rock Shooter image. This inspired to make a Rainmeter skin for White Rock Shooter. I’ve found some WRS picture and made this. Hope you enjoy it!
We are currently in need for money to upgrade our space quota so we can deliver you more wallpaper packs and dektop goodies. Please consider to donate. Your donation will make you an honorary member of TRT and you shall be given a large portion of priority when it comes to request.
