Asus Taichi Laptop Has Dual Screens - Do
you want more than a glowing piece of produce on the back of your
laptop? Asus sure thinks so and it has just introduced the Asus Taichi
to the world. It has a second display that covers the entire back
cover. This is certainly the first time I've seen this. To be available
in 11.6-inch and 13.3-inch variants, the Asus Taichi has a double-sided
IPS display so that you can still use the computer when the lid is
closed. Presumably, when the lid is open, you do your computing on the
regular screen and share your work with everyone else at the coffee
shop with the display on the back. The two displays are independent.
And yes, the back display is a touchscreen, so you can use it like a
tablet when the notebook is closed. There is stylus support and we can
only assume that they're going with Windows 8 for this creation. The
Taichi is said to be "as light and thin as the Asus Zenbook" and it'll
come powered by 3rd-gen Intel Core processors, SSD storage, and
dual-band 802.11n Wi-Fi.

Joggobot, Your Flying Robot Running Friend (video)
- The concept comes by way of Exertion Games
Lab
at RMIT University in Melbourne. What they've done is taken the
standard Parrot AR.Drone quadracopter and loaded it with some
specialized software. By doing so, the drone will lock in on the user
(you) and follow you around as you go for your run around the
neighborhood. It's also designed to help you maintain a certain pace,
so if you start to lag behind, it'll fly on ahead and 'motivate' you to
keep up. Because you wouldn't want to lose your $300+ toy.

What I wonder about the motorcycle itself is if it would be bogged down by safety features it might have to include at some point. Looks good and we've seen the whole cover over a motorcycle thing before. Can't help but wonder if it's worth doing. Target consumers would be fairly tiny.
