Tomorrow Daily - 143: "Rapid prototyping" futuristic fashion looks really weird

2015-03-12
on today's show and MIT alumnus creates micro thrusters for satellites we all know we can play netflix on our Xbox and ps4 s and all that but now you can play netflix on your Nintendo Entertainment System the NES old-school and rapid prototyping is a new way we might see future fashion created you're gonna look sexy tomorrow Daley greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily bestie talks on their own universe where science facts and science fiction there it is crash into each other load bring it back easy all right all the best things iPod I'm your host Ashley scared Ramiz always kill anonymous I'm your kill animus yes that is true well yeah that's I think that's ultimately you said that dude a and it really sums it up yeah it does it what is it what is it again we're science really the kids in science fact we're sign specializing in fact but it also just seems like I feel like someone has said that before like many times like this is like sort of a phrase people like to use maybe we would like more science fiction and science fact oh I got it I got it are you ready we're science fiction in science fun collide can we use that no fine science fun all right you know what then uh we're just you know I don't want to talk to you let's hit the headlines I feel worried science okay crying all right yeah what do you got just want to be positive Cael okay so one of the challenges of satellite smaller satellites up in space is that you cannot really control them in terms of like they have no propulsion you can't tell them to change the certain direction anything like that and in the vacuum of space I mean obviously just they just kind of float there so if you have anything especially using like maybe a camera or a sensor you really kind of need it to do what you needed to do and move in specific direction so this MIT alum and her name is Natalia Brickner she's an aeronautics and Astronautics alumnus from MIT so she's very smart like about eight times smarter than both of us combined she started a company called accion systems and they have developed a device called max one and it's a tiny what they're calling an electrospray propulsion system here's how it works so this is actually inside a vacuum like their they've attached these proposals these propulsion sort of bases to a CubeSat which we'll get to that so but that's what you're seeing on the screen right now so how it works is there's a reservoir tank that has liquid salt propellant in it and then there are these chips and the chips are actually the size of a penny they're tiny okay and they have 500 pointed tips underneath like on the underside of them that soaks up the liquid salt propellant and then there are on top of the base there's a bunch of little tiny holes so when it soaks up that liquid salt propellant then the end they run an electrical current through it they have a whole bunch of charged ions happening and what happens then the charged ions rocket out of the teeny tiny little holes on each of these little chips and propels whatever device is attached to in the opposite direction all right little tank propulsion devices yeah exactly Micro it's like micro propulsion their little thrusters tiny thrusters all right okay so um so brick this this woman she's saying that the thrust on these things are they had eight of them attached there was enough to move the device around a sheet of paper here on earth oh but here's the crazy thing so that's not a lot here but in space a little bit of propulsion goes a really long way right so you get the ball rolling right so they test it out in a vacuum which is this and they were able to produce a hundred micro Newton's of force per square meter and that might not sound like a whole lot to people like us who have no idea what we would be doing in aeronautics whatsoever yeah but the great thing is is according to the report and this is a quote it's enough to stabilize a CubeSat launch from the ISS and to compensate for atmospheric drag so it's enough to get stuff done perfect and that's the important in a very small package yes okay cool they're gonna start making them in July and then they're gonna ship them to people by the end of 2015 are they really expensive I mean I mean I don't assume you'd know that yeah they're really small so that might actually keep the cost down did you just poop a phone I'm so excited Paul yeah no that's cool that it's really cool and so yeah I think this is really neat and I really like that this alumnus like got out of college was like you know what I'm making a difference here here it is here's what I'm gonna do I'm starting a company small change leaves the big thing exactly exactly right so um so you were talking about yes it okay so this is this is a fun article this little article zombie a fun one so basically we all know that we can watch netflix on practically any of the newer consoles pretty much yeah you can watch it on you the original Nintendo Entertainment System oh boy NES this is called darkness now every year Netflix has like a hackathon where everybody comes on these unique ways to interact with Netflix and whatnot what you're looking at is a extremely pared down version of Netflix it is a 8-bit version of netflix so the images look terrible you're scrolling through just text but this was made by Netflix employees a guy at Sierra know Alex Wolff and Karina motion the whole name yeah so as you can see there's they're showing house of cards they're scrolling through that and they're about to play this house of cards I can't wait to see how it is Wow we go bad house of cards you can barely make it out what a drunk nice 56k right yeah 256 K now basically what this is is it's not a mod for the NES okay so they didn't like no it's a modded out cartridge that they put in yeah so so basically on the cartridge you can't make it at home yeah it's all good no I'm sorry guys wait a second it's not working hold on and they tapped on it a little bit and then they blew of the cartridge and then they put then they kind of like very gently press down and then they're like okay it's working don't move anybody Oh for the hero so you watch terrible Netflix game genie or at Netflix so this is this is obviously pretty cool it's all free obviously just pretty awesome I'll larf you know anymore but it's it's it's really it's really fun to see that pared down version to kind of get a perspective of it's fine that's going no do they make other cool things yes I was about to say that I so they did come out with some other stuff including an app called say what in which you can you can pause the video a part of the video and then I'll show you what they said oh I like that hold on my favorite one is the last one okay they have an animated glow showing real-time playback activity around the globe so what people are watching around the globe and then lastly a tool dual pane protection that that you can put on a specific series so your significant other can't get ahead of you on a series and watch it without you oh that clever if you're watching house of cards you know like oh there's no way I'm gonna let my girlfriend watch anymore like get ahead cheat on another if you're just series cheating you're binge cheating you can't do that so that's pretty you have to put in like - pew we had a pin and then your she would get a pin and then it's like to do it you it's like nuclear codes yeah one and two all right I got it so that's perfect but that brings us to our hashtag of the day which is TD rig do you want to know what's the craziest streaming video hack you can think of oh man there's some good one okay well I want you to go ahead and TV Rick what do you got I think streaming video hack like I would love I would love a streaming video hack where you could like this is I like I really want this so bad where you can like pause a scene and like tap on people's clothes in a show and then on the side it would tell you exactly where you can buy it and how much you buy it right there that's actually really like I want that there's there's websites that do this where it's like you know what like how do I find that on TV or whatever it is where it's like and they work really hard and they put together these really awesome like roundup so like here's all the things you can buy like in stores that characters more on this show or whatever but like I want to do it in real time while I'm watching TV so maybe it's a second screen experience maybe it's like I'm watching Netflix on my television I have my iPad or my phone or whatever and then like during the scene I can literally press pause and then my iPad shows the scene and it's like what are you interested in and you tap on whatever it is whether it's clothes and some kind of gadget like whatever and then it tells you like this is what it is here's how much it cost it would you like to buy it but I want that that's pretty great that's what I want actually I wouldn't mind I wouldn't mind some like reaction type stuff like have you ever seen any of those Japanese shows where they where they have people like reacting and they're like oh sure and pictures yeah I love that I would love some of those and you could pick like whether it be like a celebrity that's watching his own content his or her own content or like my friends and it like was light like a live feed of my friends like a record like if I watch unbreakable kimmy schmitt and I'm watching it I laugh then somebody it records it and sometimes actually I love this for like like Game of Thrones where like you can actually check directors commentary you can choose reaction commentary so it's like internet reaction and you just pick it and then basically anybody who has that like option enabled what it would be recording your reactions to shows and then it would you would see the picture-in-picture change like based on people's like craziest reactions so it's like during certain scenes you just see people like screaming and crying this sounds like the coolest and the most annoying feature ever people gonna be like I don't like the record smooth while I'm doing it fun don't really don't instant don't make this Netflix thank you though yeah hack but don't actually show teeny rig what what the craziest streaming video hack you can think of so those in our idea yeah twitter twitter at us or put it in the youtube comments and we'll we'll check that out alright you'll be then you'll be tomorrow daily famous TV famous get you now you can try and drop your name and like out a TGI Fridays straight and fries curly curly string maybe yeah and maybe an accidental curly um so I gotta tell you about this rapid prototyping it's really cool the pictures are like insane I love fashion super into this yeah super new fashion it's Fashion Week right now we just saw Zoolander walk the runway is a Fashion Week at Valentino's runway show in Fashion Week in Paris so this is from an Italian manufacturer and they actually make Footwear molds and other tools that you would use to like create clothes and stuff so it's they're they're not actually a like a fashion house okay so they're more of like a tools prototyping kind of molds place yeah so they've come up with what they're calling rapid prototyping and they have they're saying they have the ability to offer a line of items with realistic prototypes that are built in hours as opposed to like weeks to develop like prototypes of stuff oh okay so there were six items in this line collection that they have I don't think I'll be wearing that it so they had a bustier which is what you're seeing right now which is kind of crazy they also had a about to my birthday party they had three pairs of shoes a bracelet and a handbag okay so these were all concept it like they were all a concept within an hour right and then hours hours so it's like basically these were all designed prototypes and 3d printed within like a very short period of time compared to what you would normally and like these shoes are so cool can you imagine once this is available to you and you're like I gotta go to data whatever and you can download blueprints and you're like I need some shoes I like those shoes I'm not gonna order on Amazon I'm gonna make them or you go like me I love those but maybe I want them in a different color and then they just print out like whatever color you want so and this would work with your Netflix thing you could be like I like look at that Margot Robbie's wearing that is incredible print me out that shoe right now yes so these are some of the shoes okay so most of these are a little fashion apart but I love these Oxford's with like these crazy it's like 3d printed so these are all so this is an existing shoe right there but then they've added 3d printed on to this so what they were saying is and this is what I thought was the most interesting part about this is they're able to make these in one single print using mixed materials so both rigid and soft material especially with the shoes so it's not just like hard plastic like we've seen like hard plastic bangles or you know like that top that we were looking at like it's it's hard material so that there's structure but then it's also soft so that you can wear it against your skin and if you turn it's not gonna like be like a Kate like you're wearing a cage yeah exactly exactly like that everybody at the party so usually you would have pieced together hard and soft materials after making them you put them together manually this not the case they're able to sort of use both so whether they made shoes they made purses they made three pairs of shoes a bracelet a handbag and that bustier okay so there was a six item line of clothing just to be able to show like here's what we can do it's called rapid prototyping we're able to like let's say you come to us and say I want to make this and it's got this and this and I want to see what the prototype looks like like right now and then you can make those quick changes on the fly and reprint a new one so it's not gonna take like weeks to get go back and forth between designer and manufacturer like all these different things there's such a huge process and like making these clothes and I'm the shoes and things like that so so they're gonna make this they're just it's I think they're hoping that fashion houses will pick up on this and sort of maybe try it out I think they should make a consumer version I would like a consumers I wait I just I'm waiting for the day where I can walk into a store because I'm really tall I'm I'm a little 6 feet tall you guys and for me when I go shopping it's like nothing ever fits me right I never feel like anything fits me right and I go in and it's like I might find a t-shirt but it's too short like it's just too short because I have a long torso or like my jeans are too long because it's like I buy them in long cuz I'm tall but they're way too long so it's like I always have problems with this and I would love to be able to walk into a store and be like I love this dress just adjust it by this much in this much and then just 3d print it for me I'll be back in a couple hours and to pick it up and I'm done I'm all-in I'm all-in I like that whole share system do you remember like in clueless when cher had that little thing well they had we saw that it at CES we saw something really similar to that there was a guy I loved this like older gentleman he's probably in his 50s and he was like wearing like dresses and like part cute little like lady parkas because that's what they had there it was so funny and he was just enjoying sexy yeah he was just enjoying himself he's having a great time so anyway we are gonna take a quick break we will be right back with another round of into it because it's the end of the week and then of course we have your user feedback your TV first feedback your first person sports feedback that we got a couple days ago because I messed things up and then of course we have our phone talker for the day so don't click away it's tomorrow daily also watch this welcome back to the show it's Thursday and as always we like to tell you on Thursdays what we're really into this week and hopefully you'll find it just as interesting and obsessive as we do so this is into it are you starting do you want to go first or do you want me to go first oh I'll go you want to go first oh all right all right so um this morning the Austen geek the often warship Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk yeah uh of Firefly Fame launched an IndieGoGo this morning oh really for a web series that they would like to make called conman okay okay let me just run the story of the show by you and see if it sounds a little familiar okay so alan tudyk scare achter is a man who was on a very popular yet short-lived science-fiction series on television that was abruptly canceled too soon and he now spends his time at conventions like signing autographs and doing booth stuff you know and and then one of the guys from the show Nathan Fillion 'he's character has become a huge star a huge star after this science fiction show and and so the story is that it's they talk about like the old show they were on and all this stuff so they're doing this IndieGoGo to like produce this series apparently it's gonna be very funny that's what they say they're saying it's gonna be very funny but that story sounds super familiar right yeah like I feel like I've almost I feel like maybe we've heard it somewhere before but I just I can't I can't put my finger on it or maybe it's exactly Firefly yeah I think I think I love that well I mean if you're they're not getting we're not getting Firefly we're just not getting Firefly back but she did say this is the easiest way to get us bolt back into a spaceship together that was their word yeah they're really playing and are they're really hitting our heartstrings here but so part of this video is alan tudyk going and saying i wrote this script to people like Seth Green Felicia Day James Gunn yeah they all wrote on the same circuit they all run the same circles so he's going around saying I wrote this trip all blah so these people have all I guess committed to like appearing in the show which is very funny oh this will definitely get funded it's doing very well they want they're hoping for I think they were saying like four hundred and seventy-five thousand they'll get that a good run of episodes and and I just I find this adorable yeah and when they said because a lot of the criticism this morning on it was oh well you guys are big stars why don't you go like thunder yourself like you go to any studio and get it funded and they said you know uh maybe we have trust issues but sci-fi series on a network we maybe feel a little weird about that now like so it was kind of so meta I've never like this pull it out of your pocket like you guys are so rich whatever make it well that's not fair if you don't want the show you have a problem with them kind of money that way don't fund it yeah but a lot of people are funding it like people are going crazy about this right now but I I just want to say I just they're right in kudos you I do too I do too I charge Talent it exciting I do too there's a lot of really good character - yeah he's and he's such a nice guy like I've met him a couple of times that like conferences and something he's so nice like I've never remember in a time where I'm like oh that guy was like less nice than I thought he would be like he's always more nice and so he deserves it like this is a cool series I think it's funny they said I love the tag line it was like con man and then it's like because convention man didn't sound as exciting or something like that I got I just love it I like I like what they're doing and I I'm a big fan of you know their work and everything and I love Firefly and they're doing the right what you know thing because they all know about conventions right they know that life it is a cookie cookie world it is so yeah I guess if I guess if you're interested you want to see what it's about that I guess you can go check out the yeah if you just look up if you to IndieGoGo it's like we have to did you give any money yeah I'm gonna give oh I don't know how much I can give them because I just bought the pancake bot I just back the pancake bot but I could kick him a couple bucks okay so can't really do it more about pancakes and you do a button it's a filly of it I want to be able to enjoy it let the record show let the record show that I bought I'm gonna make delicious beautiful pancakes the shape of alan tudyk face so that i can eat it while i whilst i watch con man you're welcome sweet world continue you become what see what are you into this week eating celebrity faces of course no I do this thing we're all find it's it's it's very rare there's a lot of good subreddits out there talk about subreddits but every now and then i'll find the one where i'll just fall into a complete and complete love with it and then for a week just I can't stop interacting with it this week it's commercial cuts commercial cuts is basically people take commercials ok any second commercials that are just like whatever is selling an ad and they'll somehow edit it to make it actually a joke so they recut them they'll recut them for humor purposes ok I've got one for you we have an example right there's a lot of them and but we had to be very selective here's what about somebody's are dark that yeah they always take a turn so here we go here's this one hey we made your own lunch yeah I'm so proud of you the bus is here gotta go mom okay honey have a great day look in your bag made you something it's more than just that great peanut taste choosing Jeff is a simple way to show someone how much you care but anyway if you have that same sort of sick sense of humor as I do there's a lot of really good ones on there there's one that I'm obsessed with called the book which is a Toyota Corolla one Howard gets really surreal it's really weird but salesmen showing these to us like all day today and there you have to have a dark sense of humor about them like most of them are extremely dark they all take like really weird morbid turns most of them but yeah right up my alley because I'm a weirdo so they're I love them yeah hopefully you enjoy those but yeah that's that's what I'm into commercial guts stuff so they go well from what we're into to what you're into it's time for your user feedback all right so we asked you guys where you just I don't anyway we asked you guys I don't even want to know what you're doing over there we asked you guys two days ago to use that Shakti D first to tell us what first-person like what would you want to see broadcast and first-person like what's the thing you want to watch right you said surgeries like a surgery like a weirdo um so Tyler wrote to us and said TD first conventions like CES where they have hands-on experiences and maybe gymnastics I like that that was the that was the side that's a really good way of but like the experiencing everything experiencing like a convention you can't go to or something like that be cool okay Neil wrote in and said mix it with oculus and go spelunking or deep-sea diving I have a massive fear of the unknown this would help beat it I see and that's a good idea where it's like if you have a phobia maybe you overcome like Heights or you would use it with the oculus yeah and somebody maybe skydive so it's like first-person look we have like some GoPro stuff like that so but um but I don't think it would make me any less afraid of spiders to be spiders like you're this big living in a huge nest of spine I would be like oh yeah now I get it they're all night they're all super cool okay that one's name is Jan okay Ali wrote to us and said samurai fights like Coach like the samurai fights it's pretty good I like that I like that word and we're also this apparently we're taking a time machine yeah we also go back in we also go back in time because Justin Roden said medieval jousting or sword fighting right so also with that oh the Black Plague I'd love to see that in first person but you know wouldn't experience a to just be streaming oh that's okay crucifixion of Jesus Christ all these terrible things that way to bring the room down kill wasn't me listen to bring the room back up Frank wrote in to us and said I want NASA to put a 4k camera on their astronauts while they're doing the spacewalk and on an eagle while flying yeah I like those inspirational like a 4k camera on the spacewalk like that would be really fun to be able to put on an oculus and like it's like if you could put in a camera and like their helmet like a helmet cam and you could actually live watch them do their spacewalks like really slowly you'd be like moving really slow I might ask the shirt on for the exact reason all right and then of course we have our very last piece of user feedback we are delirious which is our phone tire for the day I think I think the thing is that our NASA like walk in was really boring it is we're like can you imagine if you're skipping around in the video and you got right to that point you're like I'm gonna die boredom but are they doing better go back to what done with the side of this alright guys our phone Tiger for the day today is Sarah hot and he took this picture with his iPhone 6 and he said this is Sarah hot from Istanbul love watching your show from my Apple TV every evening this year we had lots of snow in here so I got to ski a lot here's a few photos that I took with my iPhone 6 each from different mountains hope you like it for one of the phone tog refer of the day the iPhone 6 still has the best camera it's pretty good I I think that would be really bright and it also has the the flirt sorry I'm about to bite I'm about to buy a new phone we've been talking about phone cameras Oh Samsung gets close but the the one thing that I did I don't like about Samsung cameras is it gets really they kind of like slightly over saturate it through the the camera software yeah so it's like when you take a picture it's not it doesn't look as real some people like that though some people like it just slightly above like a little oversaturated so that you have that richness and they don't have to edit it they feel like oh ok it doesn't need to be edited right I get that like I totally understand the appeal to that and like I know a lot of people who love their Galaxy phones because of that because they're like oh the pictures look so rich and vibrant I don't have to do anything to them but for me it's like I prefer these sort of real very close to realistic tones yeah and then that way if I want to up the saturation I can I'm like an app so but if not what sir had great that's a photo yeah totally love it I like the light on the end I don't - yeah he said it a few and I this one was my favorite so um I think it ripped do you think he ripped down that mountain do you think he like shredded yeah I definitely think he was skiing or snowboarding I think he was skiing but I want to say can I say what I think would make that picture just like just slightly better than no okay does anyone remember ski free for Microsoft oh no the little monster guy oh that would be perfect let's just add him right in there cuz I feel like that it's just it's just off of purpose it's so close to perfect but ski free monster I think is really where it's at something we just somebody will add them and then and then we'll all be happy that's what I'm saying yeah if you want your picture if you want to submit your picture for consideration to be on the show you can email us tomorrow at cnet.com you can also send us show uh show ideas you can send us tips tricks recipes old family recipes we're down with that too yeah if you absolutely big tips fashion tips whatever you got totally good if you hate email you
