   Last year I had the ocasion to play with a device very simliar to the Trackmate, which also had images projected over it’s surface. It was exposed in Barcelona’s Science Museum, and I think it was developed by a local Univeristy. It’s name was Reactable:

   I think that the Trackmate is good start point for those who want to have their own trackable instrument : )

   Nice to see that the whole world hasn’t been taken over with ARF airplanes. All the R/C enthusiasts I grew up with expected that you had technical skill, were interested in building your own, even if it started as a kit, because you needed that knowledge to get it back airworthy after the inevitable crashes. Somewhere in the last decade the R/C aircraft world got into this throwaway society where you buy them fully assembled except for the servos and engine, crash them once and go buy a new one.

   Thanks for showing that except for the radio system, a plane can be put together very inexpensively!

   Weed wacker’s are known as different names. Although it is different named but it’s capabilities are same.It may different from each other but it is not a large difference among them. Actually it has a great significant on removing the grasses. Thanks for your article.
