SixthSense is a wearable computing device that contains a camera and a projector and allows the wearer to interact with digital objects in a physical way.
I’ve seen this before and regarded it as just another really cool project from MIT. In the video Pranav makes a stunning announcement — that all the SixthSense stuff is going to be opensource!

The other day, I decided to bring my old “Skynet” device back online. The master came right online, but the drone was having some problems. I worked it out, and it’s all working correctly now. w00t. Just waiting on my N-Female to RP-TNC connector and I will be read to rock with the Yagi.
Also, I noticed that Kismet-Newcore is out which has a lot of nice features. There is also a plugin available called “Lorcon” that allows kismet to inject and sniff 802.11 frames. Sweet! I will compile both on the rother when I get time…
This site has awesome pictures and info on different connector types for computer and electronics telecom related stuff…
DIY Spectrum Analyzer using the XBee. Pretty simple project if you have the XBee laying around which I do…
Now this is cool… I may have to build a coreboot based box soon.
coreboot (formerly known as LinuxBIOS) is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS (firmware) you can find in most of today’s computers. It performs just a little bit of hardware initialization and then executes a so-called payload.
Wow this is the best idea ever!
Connectify exploits a unfinished feature in Win7 that allows you to create WiFi hotspot via your wireless card and share the traffic thru a LAN connection. COOL!
NumberPlanet.com is an attempt to document every number. We’re talking everything from ASCII codes, to IPv4 netmasks, to prime numbers and cubed numbers. Pretty cool…
DBAN is a means of ensuring due diligence in computer recycling, a way of preventing identity theft if you want to sell a computer, and a good way to totally clean a Microsoft Windows installation of viruses and spyware. DBAN prevents or thoroughly hinders all known techniques of hard disk forensic analysis.
*DROOL* — I hear XBMC even runs really nicely on here.
