- Can a PC think for itself? - Day after day since 1984, teams of
programmers, linguists, theologians, mathematicians and philosophers have plugged away at a $60 million project they hope will transform human
existence: teaching a computer common sense.
- Monkey brains move cursor with thought control - Monkeys implanted with special electrodes moved a cursor on a computer
screen just by thinking about it, and learned how to do it better with practice,
scientists reported on Thursday.
In Schwartz's experiment, each tiny electrode was attached to a single neuron in the motor
cortex, the part of the brain where movement is controlled.
- Play DIVX movies on your Xbox & PAL/NTSC selector available - The
player is not yet finished, but it shows that the Xbox is
perfectly capable of playing back DIVX movies and that full-feature DIVX players will
be out very soon. The current limitations are no sound, the video runs too fast, and is
garbled after looping. Click here
for an AVI movie (3.6MBytes) we captured directly from the Xbox. Click here for the ISO
file.(15.4MBytes, trailer of The Matrix included)
- Computex Taipei 2002 Coverage - VR-Zone have posted all the ClawHammer boards pics based on AMD

VIA KT400, SiS648 and NVIDIA Crush 18D from motherboard manufacturers like SOYO, EPoX,
ABIT, DFI, Shuttle, Gigabyte, ASUS, FIC, ECS and more.
- New video card company coming? - The Anti-Aliasing for the Apocalypse
1500 will be at 16x (using the Selestec[tm], a new form of FSAA). Also, the
Anisotropic Filtering is going to have the option of at least 128-tap. The blurring issue
will not be a problem. Take 3DLabs 16x Anti-Aliasing on the Wildcat III for example, but
without blurring. Transform and Lighting will definetely be implemented in hardware, and
so will Pixel and Vertex shaders.
3dfx T-Buffer is not dead. Here's some more specs: Apocalypse 1500 - 4 chip SLI
512MB RAM (16x A-A) / Apocalypse 1000 - 2 chip SLI 256MB RAM (12x A-A) / Apocalypse 500 -
1 chip 128MB RAM (8x A-A) Chip design is nearly complete, and board design is in full
swing. I will be finishing the chip design this month (hopefully).
