Bruce: Moving Mac computing to Apple TV output
What's Bruce? Aside from being a punchline to a rather silly Monty Python video, it's also an amusing little testbed that I've been putting together to see how far I can push the Apple TV's utility, whether for creating information kiosk installations or bringing rich information out from the office and into the living room.
Bruce is basically an image server. The images served are generated on the Mac side of ...

Get Ready To Tap That App With T-Pain’s New App, Booty Symphony
I don’t usually use PR namesakes in headlines, but “Get ready to tap that app,” only seemed fitting. What we got here is a new Android app from T-Pain’s label, Nappy Boy Entertainment, called Booty Symphony. What is it? Why would anyone want it? Well, it’s kind of a music video creation / soundboard thingamajig. Does that answer it? Capitalizing on our love for heinys, T-Pain, the software developer , helps us get our fix with the new app. You see, you just slap some booties, and ...

Then and now: a half century of camera memory
Storing pictures on your camera may be light years different than it was ten or twenty years ago, but the process of creating the actual storage medium is just about as complicated as it used to be. We've got two videos for you: one showing how memory chips are made in 2011, and another showing how Kodak film was made in 1958.

Videos: Sony’s Playstation Phone Demonstrated Exhaustively
At this point, Sony’s as-of-yet unannounced Playstation Phone (or whatever it’ll end up being called ) might just be the worst kept secret in recent history. We’ve seen spy shots ; we’ve heard hands-on reports . And now, we’ve got a big ol’ whopping set of hands on videos, demonstrating everything from game performance to the (Chinese) menu system. You can check’em out over at Chinese tech site IT168 , but they’re buried a bit deep in a sea of characters that even Google Translate seems to ...

Water buckets and rocking chair become spiffy interactive art projects (video)
Cameras and wands may be the game controllers du jour, but it seems there's still room in the world for virtual reality experiences a bit more concrete -- like these buckets, filled with water, that let their user physically paddle through a digital dreamscape. "Channels" uses a pair of flex sensors attached to plastic spoons to monitor the flow in each bucket as a projector throws the minimalist 3D environment up on a nearby wall. ...

2010 In Review: Videos Where We Hoon Around In Cars
2010 marked the year where we here at CrunchGear finally started taking the technology in today’s hottest vehicles seriously. And why not, really? The infotainment stack and in-car technology systems within some vehicles are stunning. It’s remarkable to think that just nine years ago, XM Radio alone was considered the best you could get in a car. Now it’s nearly standard along with Bluetooth streaming and GPS navigation. It’s systems like 4-wheel steer, customizable dash clusters and electronically-controlled terrain management that are leading the pack. We’re gearing ...

The iPhone, now with Unnecessary Censorship (in a good way!)
Unnecessarily censoring otherwise innocent videos to make them seem naughty is funny. Hell, Jimmy Kimmel built up his entire late night career around it . But these days, who has the time to draw all those newfangled black boxes, or dub over all those context-damning “ BEEP! “s? Further proving that an iOS app exists for absolutely everything , the guys behind Drawing Pad for iPad have just released the aptly named Unnecessary Censorship . The sole purpose of the app? To take all the hard work ...

Videos: A Visit To Tokyo-Based Tech Company AITIA
Being based in Tokyo has many advantages, and one of them is to be able to visit awesome tech startups like AITIA : the Tokyo-based startup consists of just two people (a CEO and a CTO), having hired a third person (to run the business side of things) just three months ago. What’s more important is that they have developed pretty impressive mobile technology: the company’s CTO single-handedly developed what is supposed to be the world’s first augmented reality “motion camera app”. Dubbed Mosimo Camera (“What If ...
