The Eye-xpressive Robot


Understanding gestures and emotions is still a far cry for robots, but this robo created by Hirota Lab at the University Of Tokyo can pave the way. The robot is only a pair of eyes, but it can express itself amply with just those eyes. Ability of the robot to communicate with eyes will make it good at understanding non-verbal communication, and once researchers add the planned speech synthesis and recognition program, it will be able to communicate verbally as well.

Steampunk Giraffe



The mechanical 6 feet steampunk giraffe has been created by Andrew Chase. He has experience in creating mechanical steampunk animals, and has previously created an elephant and another giraffe. This one has shiny blue eyes that look sort of scary on the metal frame. All joints rotate and lock, and the neck can be lowered or raised.

Faceless LED Watch Is More Like A Bracelet


The Faceless LED Watch does not quite fit the general definition of a watch, it has no dials, no screen, basically looks-wise there’s no defining feature to differentiate it from a bracelet. Except that it tells time. The design by Hiranao Tsuboi displays time on the strap. It’s not for sale yet, but is expected to be sold soon.
