on today's show we check out a prototype robot with multifunctional capability a restaurant in Paris is getting a tech upgrade to help service and a London University teaches a computer how to do magic tricks are you done and a smoke bomb well I didn't post no we won't it's tomorrow daily greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best feet talk show in the known universe I'm your host Ashley Scott that join me as always professional sky puncher once again Kalyan Thomas it's an illusion Michael it's not a magic trick it's an illusion I love job as a magician it's my favorite thing ever or as an illusionist I should like we're some really cool stuff today so let's not waste any time it's time for the headlines okay so I saw this robot I got very excited because you know usually you see a robot and you're like this robot maybe only does one thing and how often would I need it to this one thing well this robot is a multifunctional robot designed by flower robotics in Tokyo and what it does is they want to make here it is you can see it on the screen here it's a little robot it's about the size of its kind of the side of the Roomba or Roomba esque size they want to make a robot that can do a bunch of different stuff in your house way to go depending on what's attached to the top and this is what's so cool and you can like choose different types of lot sizes like fuzzy logic yeah you're still learning stuff like that yeah I'm so like jacked up on robots right now this is like this is Rosie the robot that you can have this is called the patent concept if this is an actual prototype device this is not just an idea that somebody has they actually have a working prototype of this which is really cool so the video you're gonna see shows this little robot and they just added a lamp attachment so here comes the robot with a light on it and it can turn on the light for you it can look for you it can find where you are can get closer or farther away depending on how much light it decides that you need and it will you know come over and real just turn on the light Thank You robot yeah you're like thanks robot okay so a light that's one thing which is pretty awesome but there are other peripherals that it mentioned so they have things like a little tiny garden that they show a little pretty a little tiny garden like maybe an herb garden so you could grow like oregano in there or whatever it's totally cloud connected so not only can it stream things download wise but it can also do its own updates so no that's terrifying but what other stuff can you put on it okay so the some of the things that they talked about were so here's the one with the garden there's a play a little plant in there okay but they also showed a robotic arm to help you like you know great hold stuff carry stuff around your house maybe you only can't carry everything all once you give it give a robot arm speakers so can follow you around play some music for you your own personal soundtrack oh yeah DJ Roomba yeah and then a projector even so it could come over to the wall project something up on the wall oh cool um but the neat thing about this is is that even if flower robotics doesn't create a bunch of different peripherals and attachments for this thing they are going to provide an SDK for developers so so here's all the different arms and stuff that they ever said so you can pick all the different types of AI probability fuzzy deep learning like all this stuff and then it'll learn based on like what you peripheral you put in there whatever but they're gonna provide an SDK for developers to make peripherals for it as well that's the way to do it so different companies it's gonna be an Android based SDK that you're gonna be able to like program different parts that you can add to this prototype this is so so cool and the neat thing is is it's the working prototype is already produced it's run on Linux it's Arduino powered it is and it has a lithium ion battery and they're saying that they want to bring this to market in 2016 so it's only a couple years oh yeah there's gonna be a lot of robotics coming real real real soon yeah Kayla and I are talking about this we think like next year's like next year and 2016 is gonna be virtual reality and robots like these are gonna be the two big things yeah there's big leaps in technology virtual actual physical virtual assistants not just Siri in your phone let's just watches that's gonna be like robots yeah it's gonna be awesome yeah so yeah I saw that and I just thought it was so cool it's a patent or Pettine @p atin and you can check it out you can find it online it's so amazing I just like really excited about it just looks awesome I want to know I still I'm not fully grasping the the plant on the robot well I mean it would it would measure water so I would say when the plant needs water and it would come over to you'd be like water hey listen this thing needs water help it out it could also say this plants dying its drying out or it could say it's sick maybe it could detect it is it depends on what kind of sensors they have in there but I could I would imagine that if you had a third party create something specifically for growing plants there might be sensors inside that peripheral that would then be able to talk to you the main unit all right all right yeah see the plants all right good all right tell me about something that's happening right now okay so right now if you're in Paris or plan on going to Paris soon there is a restaurant called whoo that has upgraded their servers their waiters it's called who it's called who play that okay we're not gonna play they upgraded their servers with electronics including taking your order which they they will use a samsung galaxy s5 okay and then on there so they'll take your order here they go yeah I've seen this before but they also have a galaxy gear on their wrist so they have the watch I'm also in the kitchen they have they have tablets there too and then on the the waiters wrists they have this the gear so when your foot when the food is ready the waiter will know or if like hey this is ready who's ready your french fries are ready let's do this yeah so it's just it's fully yeah yeah it's fully automated your foods not gonna be sitting under a heat lamp that's nice oh wait he's like oh the escargot are you ready yep two plats two plots so that yeah so all the devices sync together using a P Box server which is supplied by a peak at oh nice that's pretty cool I like I really like that this there's that's always a complaint about people like they get their food it's cold and like wieners don't really know sometimes when food is up so um you know having a waiter be able to say like oh okay this tables food is ready right now like I can go get that or even at the bar like oh this person's drink is ready it's not gonna be watered down it comes your table or otherwise cold I think there's less chance for mistakes honestly I'm like I go to a ramen joint that happened they use foam tattoos oh I was gonna say I go to Tatsu and they have the iPad ordering room oh that sounds amazing yeah this is I I look forward to seeing more stuff like this yeah it sounds pricey but this is all Samsung stuff this is like better so you're getting better so it's out of this I would imagine yeah that's kind of me wonder how all these devices work with when they get food on them oh I hope well I would imagine I mean you there a little look the galaxy s5 is waterproof yeah so I mean I I'm sure durability there I'm sure this a job okay wash them alright you want to talk about a magic computer yes it's it well technically it's a minute it's an illusionist illusion Michael so this is an experiment from Queen Mary University in London and this is kind of neat so they taught a computer a combinatorial card trick which are the card tricks that maybe you've seen online or around that use math to devise which card the the person has chosen so you use like math and then you also have to memorize the order of the deck to decide like exactly which card the person has picked so here's the cool thing so they they have this app called phony and it's kind of cool and it does the counting for you so it keeps tabs up for the magician it keeps tabs on the order of the deck so it would reveal the spectators card right there you flip it and then there it is right there really really neat so this is the the point of this is that it takes sort of the memorizing the deck portion of the trick out of the magician's hands but the nice thing about that is is that after it learns that skill after the computer learns that skill it can design a card deck setup that is well beyond like superior versions of tricks like so this computer can help a magician create superior tricks to the ones they've been doing Wow just kind of neat and then it also did this thing which so you'll see they're counting these elements on a board so there's twelve and then this is a magic jigsaw puzzle and the computer created this puzzle and now like when they do the recount there's only ten so where did the other two go and it's a it's a geometry it's like a clever geometry trick that is very cool it's a geometric principle that it uses to like make this thing so really cool like a kind of an interesting thing like not necessarily again like not necessarily something that's going to be life-altering for all of us but really neat that you technology's kind of be used to integrate into things that we really maybe never even thought of like magic and I think this is really cool because a lot of times um you know people you would expect people to be very skeptical about like oh it's well there's self owner this trick look obviously it's like rigged or whatever but the neat thing is is when they did these studies people were totally bought it they bought that the phone guests like straight up just guess the card we're just kinda neat yeah that's pretty cool like they were very good at that on my phone or what I don't know I don't know if it's in the App Store it's called phony pho an ey okay I'll check later but I thought it was really cool and I just I liked the idea of like teaching a computer and then having it like make better magic tricks because that better card tricks these combinatorial card tricks for magician super cool all right we're gonna take a quick 30 second break we'll be right back with a very cool Bachelor Hackett very interesting kale hasn't heard of it yet no I wanted to surprise him and it's very very awesome and then we will also have a kind of your user feedback will explain and of course our photogra for the day so don't click away tomorrow daily all right we are back welcome back everybody we have a very interesting back at her Hackett I'm not gonna waste any time just like the headline so let's get into back at her hackett okay kale you haven't seen this yet this is called seeing-eye gay guy seeing - and then the letter I it's very interesting this is an experiment it's kind of a social psychological experiment there's an artist named mark farad and the experiment is that he will wear a VR headset for 28 days it looks I believe it's an oculus uh and he will live the life of a completely different person who will be out and about in the meat space as I like to call it so he will be this other person who is actually called the other will be out and about and this guy mark will be in a little tiny room for 28 days living this person's life oh cool via VR there's gonna be sitting at his house alright he'll be in him oh no he's in like a room okay like they are literally like secluding him from everything that he it's like a simple bed a bathroom like that very simple very very so Kay alright so the other who is that's what they're calling the person the other is gonna wear glasses that have a camera in them that will record their entire day and Mark will be watching that experience from his room he can only go to the bathroom and shower when the other does so he can't just go whenever he has to go when the other goes what about eating too I'm sure he has to eat what the other eats and drink what the other drinks okay exact same food nobody will interact with him at all for 28 days with the exception of a psychologist with he's got some neuroscience training as well so he actually won't be in the room he'll be available via headset for one hour out of 24 a day I believe the way that it was made to sound on the Kickstarter people will be able to spectate the him like what viewing this so people will be able to watch him at any given time like maybe I'm like a live webcam stream or something like that in the room but I'm not sure the question is that the thing that they're trying to figure out here is the sort of the experiment is that will mark lose his sense of self if he is living the life of someone else even if it's virtually cool it's really weird Wow here's the even cooler thing they're actually taking applications for the other right now so if you want to be the other you can apply to be the other which is the person that Mark is going to experience his life through all agree the other so here's your criteria you have to be it's very simple heterosexual male in a relationship that's it those are the only two things boom kale you're in a min it's so great yeah that's it like you don't even have to have like an interesting life cuz I don't think so they're taking applications right now on their site which is seeing - i co dot uk' so if you want to go check that i if it might be that you have to be based in London but then again I'm not sure because if you're just recording them it'll be a delay it could be anyone I'll be up at a different time than he will be here's the thing though he's gonna have to watch it regardless because they're gonna have to bring him the food that you were eating yeah so maybe it's that you have to be london-based or it's eat probably easier for the for the team if you're london-based but they're gonna need a lot of pizza yeah yeah they're gonna make this a they're gonna make this a documentary and they're gonna they're so they're gonna do this experiment and then they're gonna compile everything together and do a documentary do this so it's only they're only doing it once though I mean like yeah so one experiment he's doing mobile yes and no so they're gonna do this experiment and then if you back out like the five its pounds it's um pound sterling so if you want a back it's in UK it's in UK money not US dollars um so if you want to back it it starts at like two pound like it's two quid for to get like a thank you or whatever or just all our gratitude or whatever and then it goes all the way up to five thousand pound which is that they will do this experiment with you so it's like if you want to be the mark guy then built it like day like really height if you have 28 days to waste yeah I mean it's like if you're aware if you're an artist who has 28 days of time but but it's really cool they actually want that so all the way through there's all kinds of different like tier rewards or Devers except visits and there are things like first watch privileges credit in the documentary like all this stuff but they want 150,000 pounds for this so it's it's quite a bit of money but they have a month left to go they still haven't started they just started their Kickstarter it's got like 30 days left so it's but really interesting like I I would have never thought about this as an experiment but I'm sure a lot of psychologists and people who are interested in sort of the the science of virtual reality and what it does to the human brain like I'm sure this is a very interesting thing there's a long time if with no human contact he'll I think he will not be touched he will not be spoken to and lit unless it's through that headset with his psychologist he will not he will just nothing like nothing I got things to do but I got a lot of thinking to do about this but I think I mean you if you do things like play video games like you get something out of that but if you're yes it's your freewill you're choosing to like veg out for 28 days and play right and you're getting like some sort of like high off of actually playing it and you know doing doing all the actions but you're just watching it and then also what if I go see like a ton of movies yeah like those guys gonna get to see interstellar for free daddy's gonna be let into a movie theater with glasses well that was the other thing it was like the other has to be be okay with this guy knowing all your internet passwords yeah cuz you're me typing on our stuff and then also I don't look at the keyboard and then also the other has to be okay with if he has relations with his girlfriend or his wife or whoever you know he's seeing what whoever he's in a relationship with he has to be okay with mark watching that like it because all about you have to have these glasses on all the time until you go to sleep like that's it so it's very fancy yeah I'm like there was a thing where I think they were saying if he's like running then mark has to house run like he's got a job like he is to keep his pace up and get mark to lose weight maybe I don't know but this is really cool yeah I'd like to know all of the details fascinating yeah well they have like Kickstarter video and then if you go to their site they have like a behind-the-scenes video and they've got some information there and then there's like a couple different places you can get info but seeing - I is like if you google that you should be able to find clues again who's playing on it's like it's like an art a group of artists and like people who are interested in this sort of like science sort of social science psychology experiment I want to see it a very fast baguette yeah I mean I and I'm in for two bucks I give him like two pounds but yeah I mean it just seems really interesting and weird okay so this is the point in the show where we would normally hit user feedback unfortunately I am actually hosting the mevy Awards this evening so yeah so we recorded this episode really really early and when we recorded it we actually didn't have any responses just quite yet so we're gonna bring your TD movie live tweet so we're giving you an extra day basically we're giving you an extra day to send us your TV movie life tweets as hash tag of the day where you're gonna tell us what movie or movies you said you give them - yeah theme - what movies you would want to want what movies you watch unlimited unlimited lifetime pass to watch these two movies you can do a theater anytime you want and say hey load them up and I said you're a sick part and the room and you said I said die hard and memento oh yeah good choices it's weird choices but good good weird but go I think it's like literally my life Creed is weird so weird but good weird okay so yeah yes more time but we do have of course our phone tog referred the day so rich er is our phone hire for the day-to-day and Richie our rights to us and he says photo taken with the iPhone 5s Jupiter Florida on the Loxahatchee River and I there's a story to this which is kind of cool oh good I like that this is a photo from the best first date I've ever had Oh first date six hour kayaking trip from Riverbend park to jonathan dickinson park with a picnic break at trapper Nelson's old camp it was during our first cold front here in Florida not a single cloud in the sky we both loved the outdoors and I knew this would be perfect for us to do together lots of wildlife to be seen from Gators to manatees kale great to see you found a new niche on YouTube keep up the great work you too watching your show everything I want to know if he's still with this first I know I see okay that was me thank you that was the first question I had when I read this email Mike are they still together yes or no yes or no like which what do you think I say yes says he was Richie Rich er maybe he's Richie Rich Richie oh my god boys Richie Rich rich isn't my new favorite viewer of the show so new favorite photographer new favorite viewer favorite of all time I love it if you guys want to submit your phone tog Rafi if you want to submit a hashtag of the day suggestion or if you have a story idea you can email us tomorrow at cnet.com if you hate email that's cool we're on social media or tomorrow daily on Twitter Instagram Facebook all the all usual suspects and of course we are over on Google Plus at tomorrow daily TV and if you're rich er or someone like him that uses YouTube Richie yeah I don't forget to subscribe on YouTube and if you're a listener on iTunes don't forget to you know give us a good rating there and follow us there every review is so nice rate and review and it would love that and if you're not Richie Richie are make sure to take someone on a kayak that's a really good idea yeah it's really sweet Richie are a lot about the person if you thought of that idea I mean it's a really good idea yeah you should never get in a relationship you should continually date people yes that's you're full of good ideas yeah date everyone Richie Rich is a real catch that's all I'm saying I'm assuming your name's Richie Rich it's Richie are I mean it's really close yeah um ya know he's a real catch all right well uh we'll be back tomorrow we'll be back with a whole new slate of awesome weird technology and geek pop culture stories but until then be good humans guys and we'll see in a sense
