There was a small plastic flower in a hat. Then we heard Abra-ca-dabra! ‘Alakazam!’ ‘Ta Da!’ (Magical Words used by magicians while showing magic) and the flower turns into a cute Rabbit. Isn’t that interesting? Could be. But this is not magic. Distributed Robotics Laboratory (DRL) at Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s (MIT’s) Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL) has developed a new algorithm which is an exciting fast prototyping tool. It’s name is ‘Smart Sand.’ and it can duplicate any object easily. Is it called the real magic? Abra-ca-dabra!!!
If I pronounce the name(s) Optimus Prime, Autobots, Cybertron, Decepticons, Megatron etc. anyone will understand I’m talking about Steven Spielberg’s box office hit movie ‘Transformers’ or its sequels.

No, mobile-abusers is not really a term, I just coined it out of thin air. But after watching this ad by Sony, I am fairly sure that many would agree. Mobile abuse, in itself, is not even something one would spare a minute for. Again, this ad from Sony tries to change that too.

A jellyfish moves using circular muscles in the inside of its umbrella-like bell. As the jellyfish contracts, the bell closes in on itself and ejects water to propel itself forward. When the muscles relax, the bell regains its original shape. By keeping that in mind, Engineers in the US have invented a hydrogen-powered robotic jellyfish that moves through water like a jellyfish. They call this Robojelly. As it is a hydrogen-powered robot, it will not run out of energy.
