Intimate game controllers

This is a game controller made from a bra and a pair of shorts. Both have 6 sensors. The woman stands in front of the man, and by touching each other they can play the game. This was designed in response to women feeling alienated by their boyfriends playing games and their exclusion from them.

Hydrogen Peroxide Rocket Science

This guy is rocket crazy. He’s built a rocket belt, which looks like the James Bond jetpack (and actually works!) and is building rocket cars, bikes, whatever. He’s even built a machine to make Hydrogen Peroxide at home so you can build your own fuel. Viva Mexico!

3D Face recognition locks

VisionAccess has a 3D face regocnition unit which they claim will recognise your head from different angles, in different lighting and even with different hair styles. Put it in your car, and instead of them chopping of your hand to steal it, they’ll decapitate you.

Nuclear duster

XLR to USB

XLR is something used by audio devices – microphones, keyboards, drum machines (and maybe even electric gituars… dunno, didn’t research it).

The hardware is bundled with waveform and karaoke software, which is nice but not necessary. Read more about XLR to USB[…]

RFID Guardian

The RFID Gaurdian project is to build a hand held RFID blocking field which will offer bodywide protection from scans on your RFID tags (which you can disable on command) allowing people to reap the benefits of RFID whilst being able to maintain personal privacy. They’ve managed to build a prototype, with video demonstrations.
