If my University had done stuff like this, I probably would have gone to the basketball games.

Huh, that reminds me of, coincidentally, Saeed, by Infected Mushroom. OH YEAH AND SPOILER YOUR VIDEOS

THIS. IS. DUBSTEP.

Hm. Sounds like UMCP is going to be giving our kids in Madison a run for their money.



Wow, I typed that with a straight face.

 

[GasBandit]

I love this kinda stuff. My only kibitz is they should have had a smooth slider on their yellow lamp, so that it had a "fade in/fade out" kind of effect instead of just being ON/OFF.

Now I want to find the John De Lancie Grey Poupon ad. It was funny, not Epic like that one.

ENTER, PIZZA MAN, AND RECEIVETH YOUR TIP.

Why the hell was I holding my breath at the end of that video? Don't I know I'm not there and can't blow it down?

Home-built "taser sword."

I wouldn't think that electrical tape would be a very good material for a grip.

 

[Sparhawk]

I wouldn't think that electrical tape would be a very good material for a grip.

Insulating to prevent personal tasering, if properly lightly stretched it has a great slightly tacky grip to it, easy to change if damaged or torn. Could probably improve it with a under-coat of foam style electrical cushion that is usually used on high-voltage installations (660v + ). I think that it would work better (be more effective) to cut the voltage a little so that it wasn't arcing across the gap, but gave the shock of a lifetime when the target was struck.

That's the part I was wondering about. I just don't know how electrical tape holds up with sweaty hands. Maybe it would work better than I think.

But then it wouldn't look awesome, and I feel like that's 99% of the point of this project.

Assuming he doesn't plan to actually taser-stab someone.

The only way it could be more awesome would be to Wolverine-style claws that do the same thing.

DRM Chair

Spoiler

An art project chair built to self-destruct after 8 uses. It has sensors and a microcontroller to detect people sitting on it, and after 8 uses it melts the solder at it's joints and collapses in a heap. (Skip to about 1:35 to watch the destruction.)

Wax and nichrome wire (the wire that glows red in a toaster). The prototype apparently used gunpowder, but none of the creators wanted to sit on it.

 

[GasBandit]

When I used grill ignition clickers to make triggers for my potato guns, I learned that electrical tape isn't foolproof in protecting you from shocks.

 

[fade]

That's a lot of slow-mo.
