2015-03-24
on today's show a Japanese company is showing off a bionic limb that you control with your smartphone and one of the best sci-fi shows of all time is making a triumphant return that show it rhymes with x-files didn't think doctors know you really didn't and we have a robot that might change the way phones and tablets are assembled in factories here we go it's gonna get exciting tomorrow daily fruiting citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best geek talk show in the known universe I'm your host Ashley skala joining me as always kill anonymous happy Saturday said oh he's a happy died but again no this is the tube well new releases Santa too yeah it's Tuesday Tuesday we can find out what all our money is going to this crazy it's been a crazy day like we were joking around on the internet with the x-files thing it was like if you had any news today just try again tomorrow like because this was the big story yeah this is yes getting all dwarves I know it discovers miracle cure forget it sorry xbox yeah so let's let's talk about robots and X Files right now you weren't supposed to spoil what my story was gonna about I think I'm 3 X Files sorry like spoilers guy I guess so yeah tell us about these uh tell about these this is a very interesting bionic limb so we've discussed prosthetics before on the show at length we saw recently the really cool 3d printed bionic limb before the little boy that was like iron man's arms it was amazing you should i watch that episode we should you totally should so this is from a japanese company called eggsy a TX III and they have handy which is aj md III okay so they talked about in the video so problems with prosthetic hands obviously they're expensive and they also rely on really big kind of custom complex computer setups to control this on the other hand handy works with a cell phone so it's it's processed all of the signals are our scent processed and sent back to the arm via phone the future is now features now everybody in it yeah that's fantastic that's a really big price sale mejor and then the other part of it is the hand is 3d printed so easy to repair easy to expand easy to customize you can make it all different colors you can switch out this the fingertips which i thought was cool you can switch out no oh first day yeah finger parts so like you can do like a screwdriver no like they have all these different types of her tips that you'd be able to use what dr. gadget knows where you are it's amazing yeah this is in movies anytime soon as a robot arm have it good like exchanging yeah hearts you're like now now is the time you're gonna die or I need to pick a lock and they switch it out it's like a saw blade although okay like a Swiss Army knife this is what a lot of us were hoping is the people that had the arms are gonna have better better options yes okay so enter than our dumb thing it's run by the phone you can select custom skins and stuff right we do print it so basically how it works with the smartphone is it hasn't eat there's an EMG sensor on your arm it takes that information so you're kind of telling it what you want it to do it sends that info to the smartphone that processes translates of data and then sends it back to the hand-to-hand e to complete that action wait how do you tell it what to do so there's a sensor that's on the arm oh alright but like on your actual here and your phone is the process your phone is the processor for this instead of a large third computer setup that is kind of common with bionic limbs like this but they were showing it off at South by Southwest and so here it is they were checking that out that was at South by I don't know if you got to see it maybe you didn't I didn't get to go to the floor unfortunately yeah so they're doing a lot of really cool stuff with this and I think that what they the coolest part of this is that eggsy wants to make this hamp handy open source totally open source so they want to put out all the information the 3d printing info the the programming information the software stuff and they want to have people just iterate on the design and make it more functional they want it to make it more beautiful they're like just go for it like we want to make an open source we're gonna give this to everybody to improve on and you're welcome so super awesome I would like to give them a hand no that's great I love that anything anytime they say open sores I like that the most exciting thing especially if it's already made really compounds yeah exactly by the way that was a huge crowd around that booth huge crowd yes sir sorry South by Southwest booths that today yeah tell myself less interactive like usually you see maybe like five people like maybe milling around a booth one of them is on a cell phone not really paying attention that like this had a very rapt audience who are the guys that are doing this they're called eggs eex III okay they're from Japan which is I mean it's just so cool so nice job XE let it go no just that we need to make baymax and then we're good I know so close to the pinnacle of our species okay can we talk about x-files now I mean if you're nice piece yeah we're all talking about x-files x-files coming back yes okay hopefully you're jumping in your chair or you can your car don't jump at your car so basically Fox is bringing back the x-files this is not good it's not gonna be a whole season but it is a six-episode miniseries who remember they did that with 24 yeah all right yeah they did this special like it was a big to-do where they brought that Jack Bauer I met him this weekend by the way that's a weird name drop but yeah that's that's that's what bar better be as cool as I hoped but the even more amazing news is that Dave de company jillian is it's Gillian Anderson thanks Jillian it's Gillian Anderson and executive producer chris carter are coming back so they're all coming back for 6s for six episodes uh oh my god yeah it's gonna be great um yeah that's gonna do TV I like I like the quote that Carter released it goes I think of it as a 13-year commercial break it's that's a really long commercial break but okay the good news is that the world has only gotten that much stranger a perfect time to tell these six stories which I was like like successful sci-fi shows that are happening right now like black mirror and spring this is there's never been a better time in and thanks to netflix a lot of people have caught up with all the stuff they've missed now an x-files speaking of Netflix and X Files this is an important piece of advice for you I am assuming because X Files will be coming back to Fox get in your viewing now because it's not gonna be on those networks very for very long yeah like I don't think it's gonna be on netflix and I think it's hulu I think they're both on both of those I would highly recommend if you have not caught up get it done sooner revving later but that I mean we thought this was gonna happen with like there was like rumors about David company was gonna be involved and and like with it this was happening but it was confirmed say that they're filming the summer so that they're there's there's a reality folks official it's actually happening so again if you haven't watched X miles make sure to catch up like ashley said now a small piece of trivia Oh Vince Gilligan creator of Breaking Bad yeah wrote for the X yeah yes he did I'm really curious to see if maybe they bring him back to write in episode you know they're gonna do that'd be so great I'd put money on that I sure got some really good writers to come back and be I hope so too I really hope so I'd be fun so so that brings us to our hashtag a witch uh we're gonna read in two days and I'll explain why and user feedback okay our hashtag of the day today is TV TV event mm-hmm and the question is what cancelled show do you want to see brought back for a small mini series of special event miniseries run whether it's like one episode like 24 they did like two of them I think they did a couple or if it's something like this a six-episode miniseries but like can't be any more than six episodes you get like half a season all right what show what show is it obviously I know a lot of you out there gonna say Firefly I'm gonna make that exempt because that's always the number one answer right no fire fair enough yeah you're absolutely right we don't fire why I mean and I agree with you I agree and now that it's Fox maybe you never know but let's just guys really you've got what I feel like you've got an answer or loaded up so why don't you get down go ahead and start you get started it's the winner of Esquires the data bracket this weekend about like which canceled show need to be brought back I voted pushing daisies was number one oh wow six more episodes of pushy jay-z's was number one they beat Firefly they'd be perfect so I see pushing daisies folks we got a brother love pushing daisies we paste and the pie we had bring at the pie maker and we got to bring Nick olive snook and the darling mermaid mermaid darlings that show is the best show and it was cancelled too soon it was a it was a terrible casualty of the 2008 writer strike and we need it back but please travel travel boutique yeah was one of the coup de coeur buggered up in the city the cool decor I that was great about Charles that was a great show it was Bryan Fuller who is currently busy doing Hannibal I don't know if you know but he was pushing pushing daisies harsh and pushing daisies he was pushing our and dev like me and wonderful yeah like I just love down like me and nobody knows what her falls amazing grace don't pretend like anybody knows what I do what're Falls is very so good amazing right person cases that's what I say what do you think I want to know what else is on the list but I I want Clone High to come back for sure Clone High won't I if you don't know was an animated show that was on MTV of all places and it was done by Chris Miller and phil lord they did the lego movie they also did 21 Jump Street they did cloudy with a chance of meatballs they have a very good sense of humor it started Will Forte as Abraham Lincoln mom and I forgot the rest he's always busy right now in the last man on earth yeah but you know do you want my second choice yes cop Rock what you remember cop Rock cop Rock was a I think maybe one person is gonna be like look kill you deliver it and something and everybody else is just like gonna skip this one there's a reason it was awful it was it's more like Denver the last dinosaur that's what I want that let's a pic obscure shows it was a cop like a procedural show like a rock no no it was caught but it was a musical it was a musical cop procedural and it was awful there is it guys I'm telling you look up the baby merchant cop rock there's a musical number girl the baby it's awful is the worst thing ever this you're gonna cut out so funny I'm not going to okay well then I'm getting one last one in to God buchinsky it's about that's called Poochie yeah it's about a cop that dies and inhabits a pit bull s to solve crimes as a dog seriously if you love weird internet crap Google pooch in ski oh yeah buchinsky and Kyle I'm gonna go look at copper right way we has a ruin people's technic you're well no we just made your day so much better ok so that was x-files TTT TV event that's right so tell me about Sawyer ok so let's talk about Sawyer really quickly Sawyer comes from this company called rethink robotics and they have this robot right now called Baxter and Baxter is kind of he's huge he has like two arms he's really wide like we here's some footage you're back haha thanks to the rock is ginormous Baxter looks like a bouncer at a robot nightclub ok so he's huge but the cool thing is is that Baxter paved the way for Sawyer so here's Sawyer and you can see Sawyer as they go through this video is a lot more svelte then maxtor and he only has one arm and you might think that robots with one arm might be not as good as robots with two armed but not the case with Sawyer there's better so why your isn't that better so his focus is actually tending machines testing circuit boards and doing these really tiny little small precise tasks that you might see on an assembly line so you might see people and we've seen probably footage from electronics factories in China where they're putting together everything and they have these people like testing out the circuit boards doing all these really precise small tasks and they're literally lined up right next to each other very tightly if they're packed in like sardines yes so what they're saying is what they want to do is because labor costs are rising for people like that because obviously it costs money to take care of them um they want to sell these robots and have the robots to it because the turnover rates and these factories are very high they can be up to twenty-five percent so twenty-five percent of your workforce is just constantly turning over that's a quarter that's a lot okay there's a lot of economics it's a lot of mash is so much figure out job loss but it's not job wise people quitting they're quitting they really don't you think is right for the product right profit I so it's just supply and demand yeah yeah it's all very complicated but so Sawyer fits into a two by two by five space so it's just a two by two space and five foot high and then his arm can reach down and his his hand like the where his hand is there was a camera there so somebody can supervise what the robot is doing and then there's another camera on the face of Baxter that can actually have a better overview of what's going on in the factory smaller it's faster smaller more precise I does cost more than Baxter costs about twenty nine thousand dollars but it gets 30,000 lifetime hours of use which is pretty good and it is also sealed against dust and sprays which is something that obviously a lot of factories would like um but yeah you're kind of taking you on the costs of you know like I said turn over and all this other stuff but that's their goals rethink review didn't watch at home why did it have eyes why did it have creepy cartoon eyes that i hate this for more fun and no I get it makes people more comfortable when it's a friendlier looking robot like it's maybe a little bit more easy factory oh he's cute though like I got adorable ya know he's got the paperclip eyes from the Microsoft the paper cutter gloopy ICS uh guys that's a great video though they nobody's really showed off what you know the kind of stuff you can do so so you're coming to a factory near you yeah good job there there I think they're saying like they're selling them in i think was North America Europe Asia like they pretty much like almost everywhere they want to sell them and like install them and see how they do and factories which is pretty cool cool I'm sure somebody's gonna correct us on the whole taking the job thing they're gonna be like you don't understand no cannolis well it's just like Charlie the chocolate factory where it's like his dad loses the job doing the toothpaste caps of the factory cuz a robot can do it but then he gets a job at the end of the movie fixing the robot that does the toothpaste caps so they're making see you there's jobs I kept seeing the robot is like Charlie unshy like Willy Wonka the Chocolate Factory fair enough here we go we're back to pop culture that's okay all right we're gonna take a quick break and duke it out over those over those movies and we will be right back with your bets with new releases you look like the Fighting Irish logo for Notre Dame feel like I should get you a little bowler hat and we'll be back with new releases and your user feedback and of course our phone talking for today so don't click away it's tomorrow daily welcome back to tomorrow daily uh you okay are you okay I was to say your first punching then then rock concert I thought maybe you were driving a car for a second the evolution of dance oh oh okay all right good uh well it's Tuesday which means it is time to talk about all the things that as kill said will empty your wallet it's new releases some really good stuff this this week smell a small group of things only three things but the number one thing everybody's talking about on the internet is blood blood more blood borne is out finally here hey guys all your money for this game a lot of people arguing this is the this is a console selling game oh really that maybe you would buy a ps4 to play this this is sort of a I would say a spiritual successor to Dark Souls like the Dark Souls franchise I have heard it is very difficult yeah what are the reviews uh I know gamespot gave it a nine I read the review today 99 saying it's a lot of people saying this game is very good very very good but also very frustrating oh good what's a new thing these days you know it's I'm well it's like ninja gaiden black remember that it was like that game was so freaking hard but you know was it everyone was excited to see sort of this like revival of really difficult game so I think this is kind of the same the same in the same vein very you know obviously very visceral it's called blood-borne you guys you know what you're getting is what I'm saying yeah you got a ps4 it's like you have to you have to buy your exclusives when you have a console do it like uh yeah good even if I don't do it for the exclusive ah but I yeah this is definitely one of those ones I'm very excited to check out on Twitch ya see cuz you get that taste of like this is what it is yeah my kind of game yeah and I think a lot of people are already you know really on it like people I'd like I thought I saw well twitch said to change your passwords today because they got hacked but is that what happened I they said there's some kind of breach so we got all everybody got either passwords reset producer Logan are you gonna buy this game yes or no no reason to Logan says no I guess not not really snotty back wasn't so busy with GT I'm saying he's busy hi Steve it's either he's doing either doing homework or playing GTA that strip which is also homework or doing homework to do highest in GTA it's like he's doing his heist homework ice not work ok what's the other one what else we got I've never heard of this I thought this was very interesting so this is a game on iOS it's called rebus re be us and if you've ever heard of Rita it's like riddles like these sort of visual puzzles and so they have this some trailer video so they'll show you exactly what a revis is so you can see I love when you find this stuff because I wouldn't have found it otherwise oh god I was I was looking and I'm like okay but what do we have today so here's Olga em over the word day obviously the solution is monday cuz it's em on day 0 0 these puzzles I remember doing these in elementary school yeah they're kind of like that and so they have the one what's another hundreds of puzzles what's this one it's a tea made of rain so train oh boy and then like the word the letter L and the Annan amber sand is land l and they're like little worried you take other people on and doing it no but there's I think that's like role puzzles like you're supposed to click cross a bridge a troll would be like what is it G with the top right that's in your life Rivas I've got you here okay so having a troll your pocket it's like having a Rivas bridge troll in your pocket that's exactly that's pretty cool how many hours have you logged I've played it a little bit uh because I have the flight test or the test flight demo but it comes out on the 26 so it's in a couple days like the official version comes out a couple of sorry um and then also in theaters home is out this week for those for those of you looking for an animated film to enjoy I thought this looked really cute it's not getting amazing reviews it's not getting like ninety percent on rotten tomatoes but it does look fun it's about aliens a race of aliens and their leader whose voiced by the guy who does Sheldon Cooper oh oh you can be all right there as your head you know where do we have CBS executives they can come in here and tell us yeah I mean they really should um but yeah the guy who plays Sheldon Cooper is gonna he plays the alien and then Rihanna plays a character like it looks really cute and I thought maybe if you were so inclined you would go see you this weekend are you gonna look it up right now I'm trying to don't I keep it I don't think of I keep trying to think of when he won 21 Emmys for playing Sheldon Cooper but I just associate him so deeply with Sheldon Cooper that it's it's like oh I just remembered it's Jim Parsons Oh Jim Parsons yes of course which we were on this screen when I was writing it up well yeah Jim parson nobody noticed it's all good it's all good so there's gonna be a scenery goes penny penny penny yeah exactly um so yeah I thought are you gonna go see this I probably know what I probably cannot I don't think so i think everybody is waiting for the i forgot what is it inside the disney movie oh yeah inside out inside out yeah I think everyone's waiting for that that looks really you look at this movie and you're like that's not that movie no it's waiting for that movie wait that alien kind of looks like the inside I'm know it's kind of slow kind of some movie yeah okay we're building up to the the summer season so everything's kind of whispering today whittles its way down and then explodes and then avenger explode so um okay guys it is now time to discuss a user feedback that is going to extend for not it for two days so we're gonna get a new user feedback you guys and your AR vs. virtual reality oh do they go really mad people went to town right let's hear it I want to hear we got so much feedback you're gonna have to bring in some tomorrow from YouTube because we got so much feedback I could only pull from Twitter and email and even then I couldn't pick everybody and we're gonna do this over two days that's why I was saying we'll get to your TV event tweets on Thursday but for the next two days we're gonna do t.t DVR VAR which you guys in a lot say let's hear it tom says AR for sports giving players interactive information while they're on the field or court is a game changer oh it also seems kind of cheap didn't even think about that that would be cool though you're like you got your you know you guys come up with a plan the huddle but you think he changes yeah and then it's all of a sudden just changed like in everybody's you get it your headset lappy yeah but then it's gonna be there's no no like roller ball or something I don't know there won't be any audible anyway okay what else you got Neil wrote in and said I'm more excited for AR but not all the broken bones I'll get from punching real trees while playing Minecraft like that that's true yeah killing chickens and what yeah cortland wrote in and said I would want a are just because I wear glasses but if VR was like in dot hack or sword art online than I would vr do you realize that was bad they got locked into the game and if they died in the virtual reality headset and sort online they die in real life I think I think you mean you want AR and not sort out online but yeah okay but you're you're crushing it on a are like choosing a are so most people okay most people pick they are but sort our online i would want to do that too so fantasy book Rick Rhoden said I'll go with AR cuz someday it's gonna replace every device we own one device to rule them all I hope hololens hits the mark I think a lot of people feel like that I feel like I want any any AR that pulls it off to be I want a competitive market a little bit too yeah I want a competitive market let's do this Chris wrote in an email and said I'm much more excited about AR because of its potential to be useful throughout the day the tipping point for me will be when the AR headset is not much more than a pair of horn-rimmed glasses that can offer various levels of augmentation I do not want the device only to lay images over my field of vision i also want to tilt my head back have the lenses go opaque and be able to fully go online or watch media i like that the lens is going opaque when the headset is a combination of google glass of musics headset and transition lenses i will be totally on board and even pay Google glass prices what are going 1,500 bucks I will not pay 15 hi if it did all of those things yeah well I prob yeah my phone is like a thousand dollars got off contract yeah that's true so maybe yeah maybe okay um and then also just as a side note my friend desiree uh who never talks to me about this show sent me a message about the show and said and she said she thinks that AR is like the consumer friendly the more mainstream consumer friendly product as opposed to vr she's like AR will she feels like AR will be for everybody in VR will be for like gaming like specific niche applications until until we start living in a digital world meaning when we put it on we exist in like Facebook is kind of a crash ya know kind of her I just started reading that ok ok don't spoil I recommend it we're ready player one but you should read that one I am reading that that got it in a loot crate oh ok right but until that kind of thing starts existing it's just gonna be kind of a toy so you kind of like this fun thing that makes us think about all the possibilities but it's still gonna be like not a thing that my mom is like I gotta go get one of these did you see it on the Today Show she doesn't talk like that I like that I like that though but yeah so so how is this what the tomorrow is gonna be all the VR ones no no we're just gonna do more for tomorrow cuz it was a win there was no people that were like VR a hundred percent VR all the way no no no buddy I which was shocking to me because I really felt like but somebody made a good point and said with a are you could look at a wall or you could you could have a screen and resize it to anything like you could resize it to any size you could fill up your your view you could be could make it small if you remember one week when we first did the hololens video that was the thing I was most excited about was I could be watching a TV and then just make it small a lot of companies are gonna go to business I need a TV I think I always need a TV be on the toilet just watchin nope nope always need a television I always need television um okay guys it is time for our last piece of user feedback of the day
