on today's show a special yearbook is helping blind students see their classmates a dog gets a new pair of legs 3d printed pair of legs that's exciting also nASA has a new way to take out the space trash that's inspired by geckos but you will not get fifteen percent off your car insurance tomorrow daily the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk show in the known universe I'm host Ashley skele join me as always to my right to your left uh-huh the one and only kill anonymous i like i like your lower third better than mine why I don't know they're both like jizz our names by the way in case you haven't been trolling around on the cnet videos that I've been coming out there's a blooper reel up now yeah we have to talk about the blooper reel we never make mistakes and so we just couldn't submit anything they ask me I'm a big mistakes never producer Logan was like never offer we never do yeah that's that's true but producer Logan they asked him he was like I'm sorry they're just too perfect and with that let's hit the headlines of course one thing that we say in the show today is a total fabrication it might have been that yeah I'm just throwing that out there uh we're gonna make it though you cursed us you're gonna make a huge mistake this episode I I'm sure I well so pay attention I'm here aren't I no I'm just kidding okay so our first story is awesome super heartwarming comes from South Korea this is the seoul national school for the blind and they were recently given the opportunity to let its most recent graduating class actually quote unquote see their other classmates so this is awesome a company name 3d tech made a bus of eight blind students so they made the 3d printed very detailed a small pond like handheld statues of each of these classmates and then they mounted them onto a rack about either 8 wide obviously there's an eight of them and then they put little name plates in Braille underneath the faces and so just like a yearbook picture brought to life with 3d printing they're able to feel the faces of their classmates and they're able to sort of in a way see what they look like oh that's really touching yeah and that they compared like says he is like the know your nose a small it's like everything it's like oh it resembles you and they can remember the face of their friends and and they are they each got one of these eight long busts and so they each got one they each got one so now that have it with them for life and and always be able to look back fondly oh my god on all their friends after graduation but it's really really cool like i love how 3d printing is kind of really at the forefront of these these sorts of stories that are kind of like you know we think about 3d printing as something that could potentially be used for evil like you see these 3d printed guns yeah I guess that's it and like well no there's like people who say well 3d printing I don't know like I'm not sure about it but then you see things like this and it's just so heartwarming and you're so gosh like this is something we've never been able to do even five years ago was it shake the fact that somebody thought to use it for this is yeah rentable really really cool and they these kids in case you just listening are so touched they were like hugging they were recited yeah and they were super excited to be able to experience that and check it out so I just thought that was such a nice way to open up the the show this week just really heartwarming we're in the crystal meerut or that one it that one and this next story are definitely wants to bank when you're talking about 3d printing yeah whenever you're talking in discussion about the guns or what and especially if anyone brings up like why I'm not sure about 3d printing it could be used for so many bad things and then you say well well kid not only that but like where the future's going so let's get started on my story I'm not doing not to leave your kids behind no no but we have other other so a touch upon a dog unfortunately was born without front paws this is his name Oh is Derby this is Derby the derby derby the dog was born without front paws very sad thing he was a rescue well his owner tara anderson works for 3d systems and decided that she wanted to try and you know help him out they had already tried you know putting it on meals and it couldn't play with the other dogs for you but imagine that would be really hard to have this wheelchairs yeah you can't really pivot on it so you can't pivot quickly this is his foster yeah laughter oh so serious hear the wheels that looks cumbersome it makes the dog like twice the size right he can get around kind of yeah quite it's so you know they decided to through three systems print out some some pause for it to have this is just like in forest companies like lieutenant dan you got some magic legs yeah this is just like that except with dogs so so they ended up going with instead of like latches or whether they got a loop system so that you can move around more easily right cuz if they did like a peg so many would be really right and then also may be this hard to get used to you know like it so as you can see it's got kind of like a roundish shape yeah it's like a better room for error and movement they're about to put him on him they're saying they're starting that lower the ground because they want Derby to get used to the legs and they'll increase the height over time as he gets more comfortable look at him no I know he's got some crazy mobility look at he's runnin runnin yeah like trotting around I mean you can see how he's a little lower to the ground in the front because that's obviously where's much gotta get used to is getting used to it yeah the weight distribution and whatnot but yeah they're already on their about to print his fourth generation of these so again that what the best 3d printing like moving this sort of thing and making it more accessible to people and you know look it's probably a lot more affordable my previous dog is like that's the best that's the best vest I mean that's there you go if you're a Grinch this show today is gonna make your heart grow three sizes you won't need the who's down in Whoville you just need to still not a lot for me but I know really well it's you know it with the same thing is like something x 1 is it doesn't grow yeah let's um i just have zero yeah still see maybe point to your points you so that's 2 to positive stories about 3d printing what do you go i got up there is this positive story but it might take a little while to really put it in action but you know i don't know if you knew this but there's actually a lot of space trash in our orbit like we actually have a lot of trash like dead satellites and I mean not like you know McDonald's cups or anything it's not see barge you know those like islands of garbage out in the ocean those sad eyes right don't play oil hail dumps all this oil and sewage out into space uh but ya know this is really cool so NASA there's there's about twenty one thousand objects orbiting the earth right now that are that are dead not even if one thought that nasa put their oh boy it's dangerous especially when you have launched you know we've all seen gravity yeah it's dangerous to have space trash around and so nASA has unveiled this robot gripper that they think can help bring in garbage and so what they're doing right now this is a microgravity flight that they did and that's a 20 pound box but it simulates a 250 pound item so they were able to kind of grip it so what they've done is they were inspired by geckos who can stick to some pretty rough surfaces yeah and the way that they do that is it there's like sort of these hair structures on the their pads and so they created something very similar to that with synthetic hair structures on the grippers adhesive pads that allow them to either grip or let go which is really fastening so yeah they're pulling this guy around I love that and so the future in the future the idea is that they would send a robot up in orbit with these gripper pads and it would go around the earth and collect things and so it basically clean up space trash nice space space trash garbage man and what are we gonna do with it when we get it back um well I would imagine we throw it in the ocean like we do yeah no no it's uh no I don't know I I'm not really sure I would imagine well some of it might be able to be repurposed octa so so they're just gonna send out a robot to go out there and clean up space or what's the deal yeah I mean I think it like this technology I've seen it used in a couple of different ways like not precisely this but a very similar application where they have people do it like the spider Manning up the wall like it's that gecko sort of it's like inspired by the gecko and how it sticks to rougher surfaces so right now like I said it can grab the equivalent of about 250 pounds in microgravity and then they're testing right now the grippers on a bunch of different spacecraft surfaces just see how well it can grab things and they are saying that in the future they might be able to like you know get something and take it to another location in orbit or maybe if something like falls off the ISS get it retrieve it bring it back all right things like that so I thought that was pretty neat and they were saying also that it would it would potentially in the future be used to help things that are spinning out of control in space oh okay yeah so that's scary so terrifying by the way so how much was space trash was out there again twenty-one thousand pieces of spacecraft take forever to clean up but the big thing is is that like I mentioned it's really dangerous for launches to have to go through these like caches of space garbage which is really weak did you ever think in your life that you would be talking about space garbage like originally a real space garbage problem you guys stop littering don't throw out your milkshakes or half-eaten burritos while you're in the spacecraft like so no no good yeah it's just really weird that we're talking about space trash it's one of those things where I'm like I don't as if I were just as a person like can't even imagine like that wouldn't've been a thing I thought of like wow that there's gonna be some garbage in our orbit yeah we're that dirty dirty space we got to clean it up yeah clean it up all right just like I do and fall out clean up one piece of garbage you need to learn how to play fallout um so what do you want you have a hashtag of the day for that do you want to I might try to think of our hashtags I didn't before we that was the big mistake I made see oh you don't you know right you know the hashtag I think you need to make one up right now on the spot okay I a TT TT TT trash did you trash okay all right what sci fi what's ifi'd trash do you think we'd find up if we went up into space in any series they could be from like Star Wars Star Trek or Star Trek or Battlestar Galactica yes g yeah so out of them yeah lost in space yeah like Luke's hand oh yeah there's I'd like that I like to see that more likes good catch it get a gripper cats yeah and have maybe something like Chewbacca hair trimmings okay all right out there it does sound like that got knocked off the Millennium Falcon retreat I yeah yeah yep that going on um the Apollo like that team TD trash yeah that's your that's your hashtag GT trash not not great yeah just came up with it do you have a second hashtag though because we're gonna we're gonna need this this is the more important hashtag on Wednesday kale and I are doing our best of CES show or not best of CES I'm sorry I have CES on the brain right now yeah you do best of 2014 show I should and what we're doing is we're asking you also to contribute your best of 2014 so TD best of 2014 um maybe should focus on that yeah maybe focus on that did I don't look like what i want is either your best tech story your your favorite tech story b14 your favorite video game 2014 and or your favorite pop culture news in 2014 the things that we cover like tell us what your favorite thing was this year yeah in those three which one stuck with you definitely and we'll tell you ours on that show on wednesday which is pretty exciting this wood and that'll be our last show of the year if anybody says that blood video game thing I'm he quits I'm gonna quit if you want kale to quit say the blood video gaming machine there you go on that note we're going to take a quick break we will be right back so don't click away and we will have another round of backcolor Hackett and of course your user feedback so stick around welcome back to the show where we've returned hopefully that one big mistake it's cleared now I noticed we both are wearing what would seem like aggressively violent shirts what is yours Punisher no mine is a Reaper from overwatch I got the seppälä sconce oh yeah so this is his mask Reaper Reapers mass cool he was really fun he had the dual pistols and then like his special move was like you would turn into kind of like a phantom and you would spin around in circles and Papa Papa Papa bow and like shoot everybody around you to school orchha guys have played was super good you know maybe we'll listen maybe I'll pull some strings get you in a techie okay yeah I get those strings someday someday but whenever half an alpha I don't know when that's gonna be um we have to talk about this back at her hackett because Kail found it and i found it very fascinating it's actually got a lot of cool features so what this is back or hackett so today we will be discussing the uno note band um this is a wearable lots of wearables this year yes big year for wearables this one was a little bit different though and I like kind of the idea behind it this is speed reading notifications so here's the deal there's a website called spritz and it lets you put in text and you it'll speed read it to you just like this so you're if you're not watching the show it basically puts up one word at a time centered and it's been shown like according to them that you read up to eighty percent faster it with this method one word at a time yeah so very interesting and so this wearable basically just shows you the words of your notification one word at a time centered so that you can read them very quickly which I like and it includes call notifications email social media calendar alerts and then the other thing that's really cool is you can also get gaming notifications so it is connectable to steam xbox and playstation so if you get new friend request that's crazy you can check that out and you can you know you can accept a friend request so it's primarily like a messaging type band or what yeah it's what they call it a note band and I thought that was really interesting because it is kind of like it's just like oh here's notes like here's some notes from this notification or hears you know here's an email that is going to show you one word at a time so that you can speed read it while not necessarily having to stop and like look okay and you can turn up the speed at which it sends those words to your device so it's like you can turn it up to a certain level and it'll be like instead of going hi kayle nice to meet you like it would be like hi kill nice to meet you like wait you can speed it up or slow so this is a way to not have to keep looking at your phone is what yes and I think the one thing they mentioned at the very beginning of their IndieGoGo video is we look at our phones like 150 times a day and they're like we want to just want to just acts that 86 that when people look at their phones less yeah which is a very noble pursuit I mean it's a very noble pursuit of course but I'm like I really like this idea it's neat it's really awesome so any video and how much how much is it well yeah what's going on with the first early bird is sold out but you can back it for sixty nine bucks right now for one or two bands for 118 dollars and then it delivers an april of next year's oh wow that's pretty soon that's the timeline so when most Kickstarter's and other crowdfunding projects are like a year out or more like this is for months yeah pretty close yeah so it's pretty nice and and then I think I have some stretch goals like color colorful bands or faceplates like different things like that so you can go check that out and they're doing quite well people seem to really like it i believe it's already gonna be funded so go go check it out there you go yeah that's pretty neat I like I thought it was really awesome so I say back it I mean I'm interested I like I'd like to I'd like to try it so I'm hoping maybe they'll be at CES I like that it's it's relatively cheap like it's it's easy cheap yeah it's so it works in everything so yeah and the other thing is is you don't have to charge it every day they said it will last like between like 32 to the four days like depending on how often you get notifications and very cool nice so yeah like I really like that um now that we are done backer hackett though well thank you by the way for bringing that to our attention because I didn't see that and I thought that was really cool that's really nice um now we're done with that of course we have what you guys have to say so it's time for user feedback oh you guys are so magical because last week we asked you to use hashtag TV figure to tell us what Oh what I'm animated act like sort of statue you would have thought it was too I you really you guys are geniuses uh Leo wrote to us and said I would have AG and I'll figurine i would say you shall not pass whilst topping is wooden stick whenever you walk past it that's great if you'd pass it anyway anyway second gamble for the second video by sorry Rick wrote to us and said Steve Jobs action figure every email he would say we have one more thing for you and this is the greatest thing ever I bet you like that I did well I love the idea of him being like every time you get a notification it's like a random rotation of words like it's magical it's revolutionary like I think I love the idea of like just these little like sound bites really funny and also i think i should definitely program him screaming at you at some point because that was a stew you like to scream at people okay yeah i don't want that i wouldn't buy it that well no it's like if something goes wrong like you know you get your like warning message weird something that's like a burnt or whatever that it would be like Steve being like no like the funny to me um and then camel wrote to us and said Nicki Minaj love her voice yeah I just come up to your show on YouTube you guys are awesome he's from Africa oh wow yeah I want to know what the nicki minaj i think the name is a reit rhea eritrea i think i'm in that's cool that's good but yeah Nicki Minaj I like that do I do just do like its face is like I don't know maybe it sings super bass it would sing super bass well you got my hot be running away I don't know like it could be could be good yeah thing um Wesley wrote to us and said definitely would want motoko kusanagi ghost in the shell or spike spiegel cowboy bebop yeah finger those are good so yeah some anime love their nice anime for all the otaku's out there and then Joey wrote us an email and said dear tomorrow daily I love the idea of having a moving high-end action figure I personally want one of eat an ego Montoya princess bride I want to walk in the door and have it say I'm an eagle Montoya you killed my father prepare to die like the show happy holidays sincerely Joey and it checks to see if you have six figures on your list I think that's it it should also have a scanner and it's like forehead or something where it's key you have to put your hands up and he's like do you know these things finish man I'm looking for a man with six figures uh Devon wrote to us and said I'm finally Devon Rosen said I would have my figure be Arnold Schwarzenegger and he would say all of his famous catchphrases and in the mornings when I leave in the mornings i would say i'll be back and he would say no I'll reebok we would keep saying that until one of us gave up I like that he ran through the whole scenario that's one of my favorite email for a beautiful scenario for us it's great but yeah you guys had some really good answers so you better step it up for TT trash and best of 2014 because it's gonna get serious yeah which is not gonna be fun it's either be great no this is our outtake I thought that was really good um alright so our very last piece of user feedback as always is our phone tog refer of the day so our phone charger for the day today comes from Kylie are and he took this picture with a galaxy s3 and he said ever since i got a nikon coolpix point-and-shoot camera middle school I've been trying to demonstrate how a non professional camera can be used to take great photos now with my galaxy s3 I keep trying to prove that point here's my latest attempt at an artistic photo with a relatively cheap somewhat old camera taken while waiting for this season's solar eclipse galaxy s3 yeah that's like years old guessing dip the field going there gal yeah I got it got some depth of field happenin nice I love this little sapling yeah like a little sapling picking out sticking out of the ground where everything else looks dead it's really nice to just the position of life and death I think he's I think he's prayers this point we're getting deep we're getting deeper this but yeah you totally prove your point this looks fantastic you win God nice shot Carly though yeah you're officially a favourite viewer still not my favorite yeah that's hard tonight go easy to impress kale not so much I'm tough to impress um if you guys want to send in your phone ography to be considered to be featured on the show you can email us tomorrow at cnet com you can also send us your hashtag of the day either or best
