2015-01-06
on today's show we talked about all of our favorite announcements so far at CES 2015 a robot that's going to beat you at your favorite drinking game and a dress that you're gonna have to see to believe and some of the people in the audience are probably gonna run when they see it because of arachnophobia tomorrow daily citizen to the Internet welcome to ja real humans are here there are ruins in the audience welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk show in the known universe i'm your host Ashley together to me as always the man the myth the legend the arachnophobia a thirsty arachnophobia guy kill anonymous hey how's it going I noticed you got a little little device over there I do I do LG is sponsoring tomorrow daily this week at CES 2015 and they let me use this fantastical LG g3 and it's really really fun oh wow typical Ashley sit so behind on the times I don't know if you noticed but they announced the LG G flex three knots Jesus like a few G flex 2 sorry but they will you know they will maybe this is the G flex 2 so I don't know if you've uh you've heard of that well I'm a little bit jealous yeah be honest with you I'm just gonna hang onto this one for now if you want to know more about it however you can go and check it out we have some more information on cnet gonna have to go jab you guys mad because kayla took it kale took my G flex 2 with taking selfies like crazy well listen so we have a lot of things to talk about today on the show if you've been watching our coverage all day this is going to be kind of a little palate cleanser for you we like to have a lot of fun here so let's not waste any time let's hit the headlines so first up we always like to talk about the things that we've seen that are our favorites personally at CES 2015 every year we see stuff that just makes us say wow and we get really excited about it we get really excited about so kill I'm gonna let you go first you I know you wanted to talk about what dish has going on this year at all then ok so I'm a cord cutter I'll admit that right now are there any other cord cutters in the audience I don't want to okay so the only two cord cutters will change all of you guys but basically what that means we're getting we don't want to be on cable we r you know with those kind of people because it's really expensive well dish announced something called flex TV so check this out this has your flex TV what it you're still on this flex kale it's sleeting I'm sorry I'm a flexible wing shot so a sling sling TV has ABC ESPN maker studios TNT CNN TBS Cartoon Network adult swim food network HGTV charger you're gonna marry and uh all of this for twenty dollars a month obviously the big sell for a lot of people is ESPN because that usually costs for like an extra it's an extra package cost whenever you buy cable it was like a hundred dollars so I mean if you add this up to you know HBO GO and a couple of other you know things and and what's important for me on this it's available on Xbox one whoo he's the only he said okay I call the deal five Iago I bears the gamers you know what I really liked about sling TV is that there's no box requires a set-top box just a subscription service you can subscribe and then if you have a Roku amazon fire TV if you have any of those devices already your home which you probably do you can connect to sling TV which is pretty awesome like I think a lot of a lot of us Millennials we might might be interested in now so it wasn't on another I wasn't excited about another 4k TV I know where I wasn't excited about a phone that had you know like a no bevel but hey I'm excited about this fair enough fair enough okay what do you got what are you excited about what's your wow I have to say for me the WoW moment was when Toyota kid they had a a thing going yesterday and they brought out a very notable it was it was so great but the real big thing is they showed this hydrogen car and they said we're going to make this a generator for your house so they plugged it in and there was like this beautiful like oh we're going to power your house for up to a week because of so here it is that we see it yet and the greatest part about it for me was that they released 5680 fuel cell patents for everybody to you everybody to work on you for you guys for you if anybody wants to work on that guy in the back nice not here ready not no not on you not you definitely not you we don't know what you're gonna do with the technology sir we just don't know we can't be sure but yeah they're gonna they want to kick-start fuel cell a fuel cell development and this is a really exciting way to do that and I think that this has kind of been a little bit of a theme in the last maybe year we've seen some patents get released Elon Musk with Tesla and we saw we're seeing now this with Toyota and of course Oh SVR over a razor so and we're going to talk about that in a minute but a perfect perfect choice for our future tech show true so tell me though about the drinking game okay let's get down to business so we got this robot uh yeah we love robots we're big on robots we just hope that they don't ever you know murderous hate us so Empire robots a robotics is working on this thing called versa ball they announced it last year it's supposed to it supposed to be simple versatile and expensive and gripper it's a little ball that grips onto stuff and it can hold pretty much anything well they're showing that off this year yeah by letting you challenge it to beer pong anybody else there to base camp on never to challenge us robot enough time in college working on beer pong you can look at it on the screens right now if you've ever seen one of those stress balls that are kind of filled with sand it's it grips in the same way so it pulls air through and it holds things thank you goes out that are really fragile grip grip surround it yeah that was the big thing that they're doing they're trying to show off that the device can handle delicate objects and grip things constantly and then obviously uh it actually shoots with precision I was watching the whole time I'm like this time it's going to miss this time it's right now this time it's gonna miss right now it's gonna miss it's gonna miss no it's not gonna it's gonna miss it's not gonna miss see okay mess did miss little miss next time okay but it they're basically challenged I've brought a bunch of professional beer pong players to come and play against this robot wait and it's happening now like it's happening to all of CES there are professional beer pump there's what you want one I was not invited to the league whoa I know really sad about this you know its Vegas so you know we'll see it up see what happens so yeah there you go you can go check it out it's a it's Empire robotics the different tech West so if anybody wants to see that and the first of all there it's for more than beer pong I'm told it's to all things hold things that you know that humans maybe can't handle or they're a challenge yeah there you go so there you go robotics what do you got all right so our very last headline today is something that we are very excited to show you we saw this about a month ago and actually covered it on our show and we were really excited to be able to have it talk about it here at CES this is a there's a intel has this robotic spider dress and I don't know if any of you have actually seen it quite yet but it looks absolutely terrifying we have video of it we have it there was a teaser trailer that was released here it is yeah this spider dress looks absolutely credible is 3d printed it has proximity sensors on it so when people get a little too close like they'd like to do here at CES it lashes out and the most exciting part about it is we actually have the dress with the designer anouk VIP pricked right here at our videos Harriet but I'm careful everybody don't get too close it might attack you I just want to let you know I can we grab so we have them coming up to the stage they're going to show off this beautiful creation anouk actually has designed on other designs and other 3d printed dresses for SI unit so it's gonna lash out I'm frightened Cael do not touch the model okay really far away right now model you will lose an eye but if this is one of my favorite I like when we combine different things so it's like it's like future tech fashion and you know robotic so can you tell us a little bit anoka about the process of designing this and also um you know what your inspiration was in creating this beautiful piece I open okay sir yeah first of all welcome for the invite and so what we have here is a robotic spider dress is based on the Intel Edison a small micro computer module of Intel that's a tesco inside a rebel industry so what we have here is address as soon as you step into her personal space which I want to try to do here he's he's attacking you back yeah I'm walking to her very closely know like if I do that's a little bit faster Wow so yeah basically the address is all 3d print sets in in collaboration with philip h milk it's all 3d prints in a technique called selective laser sintering so that's a really cool way to create this kind of geometry you see here the mechanic legs there are several base and in front of the dress you have to proximity sensor so those are measuring the the intimate space the personal space social space and a public space that she has around her body that's really helpful when you're walking around the intel booth freely you like just stay away just photos only photos only now can I can I get this in a size 4 kale can we get one I think he would look really good in them to waste yeah I federal review in whites or in black oh um I like white it looks so angelic you've made a dress before this this synapse tres correct that's the one one that you wear it okay it detects where you're focusing and what not where do you want to go next um oh wow that's a that's a good question we just released this one this morning so it's a very newborn baby so yeah well yeah due to the use of the Intel Edison I'm doing much more with wireless bio signals in collaboration with the team at Intel the new devices group working with a wireless bio signals is really interesting for me normally I use proximity sensors a lot so my designs were able to sense the surroundings but they were not really able to sense the body and to connect my interactions to the body and her surroundings oh yeah so working with that it really has really yeah pulled off some really interesting things for example Ebony's using a restoration sensor here so as Whitney is working in the intel booth and she doesn't want to go in an attack mode all the time she's just breathing in deeply and her assistant goes to a little bit of a breath mode sort of so she can stop her dress being attacking by her own body for example that is fantastic I have one more question of course what are the benefits and and just the pluses of using 3d printed like clothing um you don't have to sue anymore oh there you go no no pokes in the fingers all right I got you right right i like that you just put it right into a and how long have you been creating 3d printed designs 3d printing I've been basically it for four years now materialized who is also at CES at these moments I'm printing a lot with them and they guided me into the world of 3d printing which has been a very fruitful it'sit's yeah it's super cool you can create such did yeah complete complex design sort of with its that you're not able to do with your hands or with sculpting or such things so so that's really cool yeah yeah it's so impressive anza if anybody wants to actually see it you can go to the intel booth if you're here at the show please feel free to stop by she's walking around and and you can take some pictures of it and check it out I know it's up on stage so she's not walking around in the audience or anything but BK at his speech of today that's 40 i think that is BK of Intel you've also highlights the spider dress in his talk fantastic also so much thank you really appreciate that thanks to thank you yeah thank you for wearing that gorgeous all right everybody those are our headlines we will be back in after a quick break are you a little bit scared kales afraid of spiders so we will be right back we're going to have Jessica Chobot chobot from Nerdist she's here if we're around a blushy we're gonna have her up you're talking about gaming and VR so don't click away it's tomorrow daily welcome back tomorrow daily the best geek talk show in the known universe are at least on Cena you know no is it oh yes at CES 2015 we're here we have a wonderful guest today you might know her from Nerdist news you might know her from her podcast bizarre states hi this is Jessica shook chobot ladies darling I was our show bout shows that show your hand around flaws I'll get myself around the clock yeah like I'm sorry my sword who's the spider dress so they're kind of just like reeling from that yeah that little it was gorgeous but unnerving all at the same time it's a little intense both wear that dress I would kiss okay after some working out I would wear that dress yes lose about half my body just saw me in half and I could wear it maybe that would be good I'm so you are you are a big gamer like you you and I and kale are all actually really big video gamers we've all been playing video games forever one of the things we always love all three of us checking out at CES 2015 is gaming and a big part of this year's show is virtual reality so we're finally like kind of getting into a point where virtual reality is going to be really exciting it's starting to become an actual thing that consumers might be able to buy so what have you seen at the show yeah well you know I mean just a lot of third-party people are finally getting in on the act I think one that we've been talking about which is really interesting is the razor what OS vr right virtual reality is we r which is basically a dev kit for anybody but still the fact that they're kind of just letting that happen for the lack of a better phrase the common developer I know you drop you not just for companies Indies is is going to be very interesting because of Indies I think you're going to see a lot of games coming out of there that you wouldn't normally see you know it's just a lot very innovative and you're not going to normally see that kind of portrayed in your typical companies right I don't want a name wasn't going to name a single on ice point is really good at two hundred bucks to get into VR development and it's that the software's all open source you can you can develop at will as much as you want which i think is great yeah I'm and then he's kind of glazing over though is that it's kind of Barker's you can take out the little screen they have in there and slip in a phone like so you can develop for your phone make it accessible to anybody what's interesting about the phone thing to in a different company is Samsung's milker yeah Samsung VR I think what milk VR calling a new so they have it they have the gear VR which is the headset where you can put in the note or the note edge and they have that around the show and then they've been talking about milk VR as well but the one that everybody's really familiar with consumers are is the gear VR so the gear VR I went by their booth I talked to them a little bit about it it looks really cool it's you know there's no wires attached it's great that's that always is a big plus I don't know if I necessarily want to carry around an extra peripheral with a giant headset and my father encumbered yeah I talked to one of the guys that there was there kind of promoting the booth and he said he used it on the plane and that it wasn't a big issue for him I could that would be helpful it's like you you know you're I guess what if you're in a meadow or what are you doing on a plane just like I'm in a meadow like yeah I mean yeah oh yeah your dad I guess for like super long flights great idea I just don't know how how well it would travel how well it would travel make sense um I buy that I'm very surprised to not see Morpheus on the show floor we were to we were at the sony press conference last night we really thought that they would maybe say something about the word Morpheus oh no they're well they were trying to sell us on Annie he was cuz they're all right with me it was really gung-ho about Annie you guys so if you apparently and then kale of course you know encouraged him by yelling Annie in the middle of the press conference but I thought we were at a monster truck rally just shout stuff that's not how press conferences work that's what I was really big fan of Annie Sony's big push seems to be stepping away from Morpheus for this show and really pushing their PlayStation now stuff yeah which I kind of totally understand i was again talking to one of the guys at the booth there and they and i was trying to get them to spill the beans on to why they didn't have Morpheus at the show and he avoided it fairly well but didn't mention the fact that you know they've been hitting everybody so hard with it and VR is such a buzzword for the gaming for gaming at the show that they wanted to kind of step away let their own press cool down and focus on a little bit got it yeah they're other product like you said we talked about the Slover earlier III wait ether is when they'll let it let it out yeah well makes sense one of the other things that we've seen our new in different ways to sort of play games on your TV we've seen a lot of you know Android TV is going to be a thing where you're going to be able to play android games from your phone on your television you stream it right to that you can use a controller it's really really interesting and there there are lots of other Forge TV razor has um so so what do you think consumers are really going to be drawn towards in terms of and we also saw that Sony as we've been talking a lot about Sony but they mentioned that they're going to allow Samsung to sell TVs that have the ability to download the PlayStation now app so you're going to be able to play playstation I guess for now PlayStation 3 games via PlayStation now subscription yeah it comes with the TV and I am some TV which is such a I mean that just blows my mind all of their smart TV for k's are here's the thing that I find interesting about that kind of deal that they've worked out one they're accessing a whole new demographic somebody like for example maybe my father who dabbles in gaming but you know he's older he doesn't necessarily want to plunk down 600 for a new console but if he does enjoy like everybody else that I know of a good TV in their living room so if he can get that with it built in he actually might be kind of a new person to step into the gaming space a new demographic so there's that but then on top of that when it's already a 4k TV so if you if and win I'm going to go mostly with win and this is my own personal connection because they wouldn't necessarily well they do support that wouldn't tell me this but you know it makes sense that when developers start making games that are applicable to 4k television Sony's right there they already have it it's there this instantly in your home on this TV so that's I think a kind of a pretty smart move I mean that's you know I'm kind of gushing about Sony right now but that's because they really are making a very concerted effort to literally get into everyone's home in one way or another whether it's through the TV or their PlayStation TV or the remote play or however it is that they're doing it I mean it actually gets pretty confusing you have to just run it through it yeah we're talking about that playstation and then another word playstation via places in no place placing some sandwiches yeah playstation samsung TV for game like i'm sure it'll be some really long name but yeah we I like it's very exciting time worth looking at that's why we're talking about how much they're trying so much more and Microsoft isn't even here ya know I was so surprised so I haven't been to CES for at least what three or four years i think my last one was when i was here for g4 way back in the day and they stuck me doing smart fridges which is awesome but it's a rigid oh my god does it order your milk for you I'm so excited thank you Mike aren't you yeah that unlike us leave this is Arrowhead so you know but I'm all of a sudden up on the show floor and there's no microsoft and i was like what and lot of changes yeah no yeah so we have a hashtag of the day here on tomorrow daily the hashtag of the day today is hashtag TD CES games we want you to tell us what kinds of gaming tech that you are most excited
