Looking like a prop out of Minority Report, the Smart Window showed off an impressive implementation of touchscreen technology on top of a seemingly ordinary pane of glass.

If you didn’t know, I’ve had a long running fascination with space. So when YouTuber khyar mashed together more than a thousand photos the ISS took whilst flying over Earth into a spectacular film reel, I was certainly excited.

The end result is quite spectacular and a must see for any space nerd like myself.

We’ve all seen magic acts with the iPad before so this kind of stuff is certainly not a new idea. However this video definitely took my attention and looks like one of the slickest and best performed iPad 2 magic sequences I’ve seen in a while. Playing on the upcoming iOS 5 release, Simon Pierro creates some pretty awesome illusions with his iPad 2.

This video will bring no comfort for doomsday soothsayers who’ve predicted that robots will be the reason for humanity’s downfall. Over in Zurich at the ETH Flying Machine Arena, the clever scientists who’ve previously managed to program robots to play the piano have now managed to accurately program a pair of quadrocopters to play badminton together with unerring accuracy. The degree of accuracy required for these robots to work in tandem with each other is quite astounding and leads the way for more accurate aerial robotics.
