on today's show mi tease robo cheetah can now recognize and jump over your corpse and a book made of skin has a really good use surprisingly well uh and our full recap of Google i/o and some of our favorite stuff from the conference sera daily greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk show in the known universe I'm Ashley skellige enemies always Disneyland a fishy and auto kill anonymous haha twas good this weekend that's my aficionado voice oh look a good time I ran into a few viewers not necessarily from this show but the van to pay off fans I day mate as I call fo case F ok oh I don't wanna I can't say it can you just say it anyway but yeah I was really cool I think we all had a pretty eventful time since last time but then I get to talk about yours for sure right yeah yeah you talk about videos no I oh yeah I oh let's talk about it right now okay first things first technic you want on a technicality yes there is everybody I know you didn't see them with a cockpit I got the cherries IQ unsuccessfully periscope okay so I again technicality I did say by noon so you won based on the fact that I could not get a periscope out in the keynote room it was impossible so hard once the keno started could not do it the service was so bad but delicious Tim Stevens and I did do a half hour long keynote after or we did a tour of the show floor after the keynote was over so we did get a periscope in but it was afternoon and I felt like you won so I babies cherries it's tough to periscope at large events I even tried to periscope at Disneyland and it worked once out of the million times a little choppy is a little choppy alright what let's talk about what you did there yeah it's a google i/o so they had the keynote on Thursday it was really cool i was like front center like i was the first row behind the google employees like right in the middle oh wow nice awesome had great seats great seats and there was so some people are saying this was kind of a less a little more subdued I oh there wasn't it wasn't this like crazy no skydivers nothing like that but there was some interesting stuff to us because we had some VR VR news there's some really cool futuristic wearable stuff not like watches but like Drew jeans like I will talk about and then also a google google photos which is a big thing people are talking about i know you're just you dying to get under those so try not to eat too many because those poor ITV's those poor itunes listeners are gonna be delicious chomping down on chickie from their car so all right so what are we starting with all right so we're gonna start with VR so go guard board got an upgrade uh which I have I've right here google sorry board what about how do you upgrade cardboard well it only takes three steps to put together now there's not like a washer in here it's like literally just a very self-contained oh is this the actual heads is the new headset so you just take that out I'm gonna show everybody right here so you open it up you take the side so you flip them around like this like so and then you put your phone in here and then you just push that and then there that's it that's it to cardboard Wow okay there was a problem before that I couldn't use like my iphone 6 plus yes and now cardboard Google cardboards official cardboard app is available for iOS as as like one of the resident VR junkie in this office I was really impressed with this thing yeah I'm a little button they added a little button like this is not it's great so that to me is like an evolution can you can take things I like present videos it presses yeah Shapps your screen which is fantastic um it's it's really cool and and I picked one up and I wait I wanted to bring it back down for ya check out and then they also had so not only iOS support they talked about expeditions which is like a virtual field trip that's the one thing yet every when people use this thing it gets so gross like 10 10 or 15 people use this at i/o and you guys I don't know if you can see that yeah you can totally see there's a staff or head grease stain from everybody I used it so yeah so you said a virtual classroom virtual classrooms that are saying we want to give classrooms the abilities or go on these like virtual field trips or the teacher can control exactly what the students are looking at all at the same time which is really neat and then also they had jump google which is a collaboration with gopro to create a 16 go pro in the round here it is oh that looks really cheap virtual reality can't really chat to obtain why said ok so for hero fours or 16 hero forces like eight thousand dollars think it's so expensive but the one thing about Google jump that I thought was interesting and they did mention you're going to be able to kind of view this content now on YouTube right but but they said it was only for select partner so you're not you you will be able to cobble this together yourself but on YouTube the people who are going to be publishing this stuff or like select partnerships at first before they roll it out to everybody so this is like a yay with a question mark yeah like yay like that would be what it would sound like so but it really cool and interesting and definitely I mean between cardboard and this like VR that runs the gamut of like the cheapest possible VR experience and the most expensive possibly are capturing experience but they did have some really amazing footage that you saw a second ago with the depth calibration and stuff I mean some of the algorithms are insane I wasn't impressed with google i/o you were not I wasn't at all guys weren't because honestly this guy we already had this guy I know it's nice it's really nice that they made it easier and the whole you know a GoPro thing we also people we're already doing already doing that extremely the important thing from this is I think that they are only voice that there vr is opening for everyone Google is interested in doing that yeah I agree so so I think that was that was the good news not necessarily although a little yeah no no new a lot people were surprised no new hardware at all so no new watches no new phones and tablets um no nothing no google glass updates which some people thought maybe we'd see oh no no google glass updates stop it sarcasm uh but you know some people just wanted more from google so I that actually brings us to our hashtag of the day which is TDI oh uh huh and I want to know what product you were hoping for that didn't happen so what's the thing that you were hoping for to see it I oh that you didn't see obviously for you google glass yeah I wanted google glass for sure no um I don't know I don't know I was I don't know what I was hoping you were just whelmed dwer you not under whelmed not overwhelmed just whelmed yeah I don't know what is hoping for us hoping for that like a big announcement because I feel like everybody like Microsoft did hollow lens that blew everyone away yeah you know even you know the Apple watch even though I don't care about it that was a different thing Google didn't bring anything they've had smart cars and they've got all kinds of stuff but this just was less that's like it that's the thing I was hoping for is more self-driving car stuff i mean i'd like some i think i agree with you and that there was no real like mike drop announcement so then that's usually the thing that these key notes are kind of reserved for ya you almost wonder if maybe like something they felt maybe they had something but they felt wasn't quite ready after prime time which you know Google's got google labs and they've got you know they have all that crazy stuff that they have in there like secret x labs so maybe but you know at the end of the day it it was good and there was Android M which a lot of people are excited about there's a lot of really nice tweaks and upgrades to the features of Android there and then they also had android pay which is a new version of similar to Google Wallet and stuff like that but yeah no real hardware updates I'm with the exception of cardboard which I wouldn't necessarily call hardware so um yeah TDI Oh tell us what you would have liked to have seen at the conference last week um Cal please tell me about this book made of human skin because I only know of one really and it's the Necronomicon and I don't think this is it how do you open the Necronomicon I don't know don't you have to say something I think you do okay well this book you don't have to say anything special to open it so this story is more of a kind of like uh this is really interesting and now I might want to share it with other people because it's a really weird story you should share this so this is a book made of artificial skin from front to back excluding the covers from front to back artificial skin to ret to replicate different parts of the human body now why is that because tattoo artists mean a place to display their work yeah and also there's a big issue if you don't know if you need a practice how to do a tattoo not practicing on me can't do you have to do it on somebody so this book works for multiple reasons and and this is a now this isn't actually a book that's per se coming out it's like this is this video is made by tattoo art magazine and a Brazilian ad agency Lou Laura tbw they work together to create this like video for this concept for this book where artists could you know practice doing tattoos and or show off their arts so smart yeah so I mean yeah it's it's a it's a huge issue my cousin has a terrible tattoo on her back it's a it's a juggalette tattoo so I already started off bad but then it just looks like a blob um but yeah it's not done well over time that things just gonna spread underneath your skin and look just terrible so this book is really cool it's not really for sale but it's a really cool concept um no I first official state ID anything to do so could you imagine if they started doing stuff like you know how they're growing skin and labs like basically they could 3d print out these books and just 3d print out this like synthetic skin in a book and then just bind it and then ship it out to you maybe this is a Kickstarter ya book Kickstarter who knows we might might see that someday I like it skin book I think it's uh yeah I think it's good I mean maybe sometimes you know you have an idea for a tattoo maybe I'm like would really like Roger Rabbit you know and I'd be like okay well let me see what it would look like on skin right like I mean usually sketch and everything but there is something to being able to say like I have an idea but I don't know how it's gonna work like maybe new inks maybe you want to try new inks that's another thing like there's constantly new inks being released out on the market and stuff so maybe that's the thing test our new ink see if you like them so tattoo art magazine it's a great idea but somebody's got to do it I know you're not going to you too busy making magazines why don't you print your magazines on artificial skin that seems like a great idea had to your magazine pages even the actually fully tattooed that would be so skinny hey one is special edition issue honey your skin magazines showed up Lou he's like playboy she's like no its actual skin it's the hairy edition all right anyway so that was our ridiculous story that is to follow up are serious google i/o now we have a scare citing story so we're just running the whole gamut today of emotions mi tease robo cheetah which we've talked about on this show before we love this thing we've report on this thing three times it always involves like it's like once every what three four months before mancilla ok so this water now better is not better but go ahead uh it can now run five miles an hour on a treadmill and jump and and recognize time and jump over objects all right then is awesome it's so close to being a cheetah it's so terrifying new algorithms are letting this robot see obstacles the way a person would and then so detect an object estimate the object's height and then figure out the distance away so it can time a jump over it so there's three different algorithms at work here it can leap over objects up to 18 inches tall it can do that while maintaining its average runs beats here you go what right over hurdle and it's gonna be the hurdles it's gonna be robot Olympic hurdles and noticed by the way these are not perfect drops of these obstacles like when you drop them on their date their gay could be sideways that's not like really timed or anything yeah it's really taking a look at like okay here's this thing here's how it looks tears without a safety harness by never get running around we talked about it being untethered that was the last update now it can jump over your dead body after it murders you can just keep on going kill mighty is killing it hey litter so good finest is so good now another thing to keep in mind you can't tell the video but it is loud really loud it sounds like uh and like a go-kart like a homemade go-kart it's so it's a gas-powered which is great because now you can hear coming in the night when it's chasing after you very true so it cleared on a on the indoor track this indoor track it cleared about ninety percent of obstacles which is pretty good it's untethered as we mentioned and the next want to have it leap over objects on softer terrain like grass so they want to teach it to chase you in the grass now apparently i want to know their exact layout what they want to do for like the next twelve twelve year yeah I might actually ask them that question because the Robo cheetah will be present at the DARPA Robotics Challenge out in pomona this weekend so I might get to swing by and check that out so we may or may not be able to go we're trying to get press access we'll see if here's what I want to know I want to know what they are project like by the project what they have set up as goals okay as far as they can say and then I want to know what each of them would secretly personally make it do okay all right because I want to know like each of them had their own idea but they're also working together so I want to know right i'm sure they all have their own like little dream for this for the rowboat Rita but yeah it's um I mean like I said scare siding so cool to watch but also like wow if that thing ever turned on us like no good no good at all I mean I can barely run five miles an hour so that thing is definitely gonna take me out k i'll probably better runner than I and we'd probably survive oh yeah I can't run that thing how fast gonna go five miles an hour oh okay so yeah it's printed you'd be able to yeah till run outta gas so you gotta wait for drone yes that's it for the headlines we will be right back with back utter hackett your user feedback and of course our photogra for the day but until then don't click away it's to our daily welcome back to the show kale has the cherries it tastes like victory Oh real quick we didn't get to we didn't get to do it because um we weren't here but Logan's birthday was last week I know Logan's birthday was last week so happy birthday I'm sure Logan and everything producer Logan feel free to tweet him at Logan boy uh you can do send him your birthday wishes please what do you want the hashtag to be TD what Ruby on the spot I know that's what we do TD TD TD u TD feel more money more problems Mo Money mo problems yes oh my god even one version does that it'll be a success please hashtag more money problem ok so we got to do a thing now I we gotta do it yeah we got to do a thing we got to do it's monday so we gotta do becker hackett let me ask you a question uh so when you wake up like let's say on a saturday morning we have no trash cans here so you're gonna have to just yeah sorry um when you wake up let's say on a weekend and you wake up to like let's say what is it good to wake up to me the smell of coffee or breakfast cooking like is that a thing that you would like yeah like okay so it sounds pretty good alright so that means because you said yes we're going to talk about the sensor wake which is an alarm clock these as cartridges to wake you up with what is technically smell-o-vision which I find very fascinating so this company or an this product was created by an 18 year old kid who took it to the Google science fair last year and it was named one of the 15 inventions that can change the world and all right let's not get too crazy well Google named at that now it's on Kickstarter it's a cat it's a little box and you have these capsules that you pop in there with different scent profiles and each capsule works for about 60 alarms and they have all kinds of smell combos so one of them's continental breakfast that's espresso and response oh cool qua sont yeah sweet peach and strawberry candy which i think is called sugar rush seaside and jungle which is like fresh-cut grass ocean tea tree and aquat ginger and peppermint and even bacon and orange juice because they just hit their strength first stretch goal very cool congrats small-batch testing they tested this with about a hundred people at woke up on ninety nine percent of the people up in under two minutes whoa like and softly not like but like a big okay so okay so it can't change the role a little bit the idea is they want people to wake up happy relaxed and ready to tackle the day and they fear the best way account hungry and the bet they feel the best way to do that is through smell and there's been a lot of research done us to like the positive effects of smells on your like chamomile eucalyptus on route you know relaxing like you see a lot of that stuff in massage places where they say would you like an oil that's like a eucalyptus oil to help relax you or whatever same type of concept just transfer it into this like little alarm clock okay so that's what they want to do um if you maybe let's say your sinuses are acting up we got allergies we a little sniffly can't smell anything if you don't wake up in three minutes after the alarm goes off and the smell like releases then there's an actual audio alarm so you're there covering your bases for you they're making sure that you don't sleep in because you didn't smell the eight wakey wakey eggs and Bakey yeah um but yeah so they want fifty thousand euros they already have Oh for a hundred thousand euros nice with is that him by the way is it that is him I believe that is him tease get there's 29 days left in the campaign and about 88 US dollars 880 euro gets you an early bird sensor wake and if you missed the early bird they're saying it costs about 30 bucks more um retail okay so it's gonna be 120 for you to buy it how much are the cartridges did they did they say that I didn't see how I decided whether the back it or not so I no longer I didn't see how so you get a cartridges and they last for 60 alarms so 60 is not terrible not terrible but if you wake up every single day to an alarm like seven days a week it's only like that's less than 10 weeks so that's like nine weeks okay celery this alarm that alarm is free but you're not waking up to smell yeah and it's not gentle and I see yeah exactly this is meant for you to be like relax and more energetic in the morning and more peaceful but their thing is is that you can also get packs so if you pay a little bit extra over the ad euro I want to say it's like maybe 10 5 or something you get extra capsules that you can pick so they have like deals where you can get them in like bundles and stuff like that alright so cool we can check that out and I once again it is called sensor wake all one word I honestly think I'd probably wake better if it was a bad smell like if it was fart I know I was gonna say like sulfur rotten eggs yes skunks just dirty dog dirty dog wet dog just the gross pack can we make the gross back you know like that would be sort of like jelly bean flavors where they're like Bertie Botts every flavor beans like they got the good stuff like popcorn I'd wake up for popcorn that's me movie pop you're saying I'm away you don't know what you're putting in there's all the mystery one yeah you like a mystery smell pack and it could be something really Pleasant or something really distant what if they have like girlfriend like they have one that smells like you have a like a girlfriend line next to you it's perfume but you don't have your single you like oh oh forever oh yeah and then you wake up sad and nobody said hey just like every other day but you don't need an alarm clock with a girlfriend smell for that yeah oh but that sends her wig and I thought that was really low I'm bakit I think I'm kind of in on it like I feel like I'd back it to its fine by 420 though I i would say 81 the 80 bucks like feels like that's appropriate but I want to know how much those cartridges are gonna be to replace but how much would you pay I want popcorn cartridges for cartridges yeah for the four little pods I would say a cat per capsule it pay like 10 bucks how much do you um the little fresheners in the house cost like about six seven dollars well if you bite well here's thing if you buy like the actual full thing it's like you know ten dollars but then the cartridge is like a pack of 3 is usually like eight eight dollars Logan would you back this yeah yes yeah I'm kind of on the fence but I'm just trying to be helpful because I think it would be cool I'm kind of in on it just cuz it seems like one of those futuristic things that they predicted from like the 1930s like we're like well you're going to wake up to the smell of bacon in the morning even though there's no breakfast you mean those crazy guys from the 30s they were like just put a bunch of wings on your arms and jump off a building yeah we're gonna wear phones as hats like yeah just totally that's that is exactly what I'd imagine this this is that future which is kind of fun okay you're ready to talk about user feedback uh-huh let's do it all right so with two years our feedbacks get through TD flag where we asked everybody think of like new earth flags and then people didn't like that question they didn't and then we also have we also have TV eco cap which is where would you want to take the little eco capsule and simpler people like that question all right so get a real mixed bag for the flag Ricky wrote in and said TV flag if it's good enough for Captain Kirk is good enough for me hey the united federation planet yeah look it's all point wait but this is this is just one plan there's our planet that's the Star Trek United Federation though so okay but that was like multiple planets but funny pinned then sent us an email and was like hello ashlyn kill I suspect that many viewers will suggest using Star Trek's United Earth flag or the United Federation of Planets flag I will go one step further and proposed not only using the flags from Star Trek but also uniforms and insignia yo pen come on man wouldn't it be a hoot if some intelligent extraterrestrial who's been monitoring earth television broadcasts encounters NASA astronauts or unmanned spacecraft so the whole gamut of Star Trek flags uniforms and insignia and thinking Star Trek is real immediately dispatches an ambassador to earth to negotiate membership in the United Federation of Planets I can see the news headline NASA's Star Trek cosplay because okay alright that's enough of that in order to shout out that's good it's fine we've all been a comic con we know what that looks like now I love it done okay like then he wants to general aliens lion patrol them with started I love it forms I pin I love it I'm not wearing a red vest was not weird sure I do around you're at a red shirt elbow I'll go gold on the world shirt ok so then on the other side we had eco capsule people so eco cap arnold wrote in and said I'd live in the lap lands it's Sweden and have dogs pull my eco capsule here's hi first person view dogsledding pic that I love that yeah person I like that you just living loving your life and the dogs are doing all the hard work there's pulling around face all wrote in and said the Amazon jungle which I also I think that's a good one keep it keep it real all right and then Kota wrote in and said on a barge or small ship live off the sea go to port for supplies now I just want a boat with this tech like where your head's at yeah you want to be a pirate that's what you just saw eco capsule in the ocean have it float that would be really cool wait he was just gonna be floating around in the end of cab should there be well no cuz if it's solar-powered maybe you have like a little solar powered engine cuz he wants a boat version of it so you'd have to have like some sort of propellers oh man Barcelona solar sails you can sail okay cool wind power that's cute it's a good idea but you guys came up with some good stuff and then of course we have our very last piece of user feedback which is always our phone target for the day friend of the show and viewer antonio road in friend if friend of the show meaning this is the first time we've ever
