on today's show an ice robot in Antarctica might turn into a nice robot on the surface of Europa I can't wait to show you this full-size Titan from attack on Titan that's you know just like your nightmares just like my nightmares and also a really cool contest that is Disney joining up with x prize for a glimpse into the future samar daily greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the best ski talk shows new universe I'm your co-host Ashley scale attorneys always kill anonymous sake from Titans safer well for now for now for the time yeah it could just walk right across the ocean and come right to California you know completely naked I'm ready to go I got some pretty good news stories for you today yeah we do alright i I'm I'm pretty jazz so let's not waste any time let's say the headlines okay this is pretty cool it launched a few months ago actually technically so launched late last year but I'm going to tell you a little bit about and explain why it could be really important to kind of know that it exists so this is called the ice Finn robot and it's from the georgia institute of technology they deployed it back in let's see he was december of last year maybe november and cnet was covering this and I thought this was so cool they dropped this robot you can see what it looks like right here they dropped this robot through a foot wide hole so not very big hole at all in the ice and they had to go through 65 feet of ice cuz they're in Antarctica and down then they went down sixteen hundred and forty feet to the seafloor so it's it's way down there oh boy way way down to the bottom of the sea floor name are they doing down there so they were checking out like what life was like down there and they were they were actually expecting I think some people are expecting to see like very sparse life because it's very very cold obviously and they said it was filled with life they said there were see stars anemones sponges they're all kinds of stuff down there and this robot in particular is very special because it weighs under 300 pounds which is very lightweight considering the you know that a little submarine that James Cameron I think he might own it yeah he like goes down as a deep diving to go check out things like the Titanic wreckage Cameron does what James Cameron he really just does whatever he wants i think it's called like the auto sub there's one like it and those wait tons I mean they're really really heavy thousands of pounds this one is under 300 pounds but has a rain and comparable instruments to larger vehicles like that err sub so most underwater kind of robots like this have one camera and maybe one other instrument maybe and this one has 80 so there's quite a few instruments on board study and it's super portable now here's why it's important so they're saying that this research and this development of this technology may someday come in handy for NASA if they want to check out and explore what's under Europa's surface like because they're saying you know a lot of water there it's an ice they could go and drill in and then drop something very not very similar but similar to this Burleson base it's possible that the research and development of the ice fin robot may someday lend a hand in exploring the ICC's of Europa which is pretty amazing I think this is so cool and I really love that there they have a lot of video for this which is fantastic like you can really watch and see kind of what they what they were able to see and their explorations up in Antarctica which is how thick was the ice again they said they had to go through 65 feet of ice and and down through the water 1640 feet so it's quite a bit that's a lot all right well cool pretty awesome so Georgia Tech a great great job well done pretty neat um you may all right you want your titans of mine switching gears switching care years to pop culture and AR which I love is one of my favorite things so there is a very popular anime called attack on Titan it's it was very popular in Japan I was very popular over here I love it it's great it's about these gigantic Titans that come and kill people that you don't know very scary very hey game away also um but basically one guy decided he wanted to make a full-size Titan in augmented reality no and I and here is here it is check it out full-size augmented reality I tighten a now this guy's name is camo see and basically what he did was he used you know that AR technology where you create a shape and you're able to project based on that shape and he did it with Hatsune Miku Miku sorry hatsune miku who's a very successful yeah very popular fake digital musician it'll pop lover love you Japan love you so much youtube and so basically he made it so that the computer would recognize that that particular shape then he made a gigantic version of that shape got his got his drone flew up really high and then simulated a giant a giant giant Titan so this is it was a big no 50 meters tall is how big this Titan is really different size titans honestly ok so is about 150 feet high we're stories tall yeah for sort cheese and so okay so they're making right now in the video they're like making the AR marker right yeah they're making the shape that the computer recognizes that would reject me to show the image yes so there he goes and then he laid it out enough giant filled with his friend this is ridiculous I love this so much oh is that I don't like a DJ yeah he got it you got a drone up there now what's crazy is you know obviously he didn't just make the drone he also like made it so I can dance I think we have the footage of Italians answers yeah the Titan does a terrifying I think it does it I think it does a hatsune miku i should say is it an original yeah good yeah she has their little dances there it is hatsune miku tightened terrifying Wow but anyway there you go I really love ya look it even has a shadow on it that is indeed the stuff of nightmares so it's uh yeah it's really cool to see somebody using using that sort of AR technology in such a large space he could recreate a scene from attack on Titan that's pretty scary but very cool and I just I'm always by don't know if he has AI don't know if he's made this available but that would be pretty cool if anybody could could like make that that shape if he could release the program so that I can like put it tighten behind us or whatever we should do that right in the middle of the show just have a giant title game gets is scared of titans we don't know will you do a giant Genghis i went to get sued only we own the rights to get like rice buzz anyway so that is pretty they go that is your pop culture AR he didn't really have any goals he just wanted to make a full size now the goal was a target is so fun Titan we got a contest that's uh that's happening it's not ours but it's a pretty cool contest it's really cool uh so I heard I heard about this contest I wanted to talk about it a little bit cuz I think it really fits in with sort of ours the spirit of our show uh this is called the taupe Disney's create Tomorrowland XPrize challenge so we're look we're gonna watch some footage from the train Tomorrowland's coming out i'm really excited about it it looks cool like I'm really interesting tomorrow looks cool one of my flute amazing one of my favorite locations in disneyland tomorrow land um so this disc ondas is pretty fun so what they're doing is they're it's for kids so if you're oh you or someone you know is between the age of 8 to 17 you can enter this contest I know you're so close you're just okay so just turn eight so kids so very smart kids very smart or very just very creative kids because here's here's what the contest is all about so d your if you are entering you have to imagine an innovation or an invention from the future and you have to report on that thing to us here in the presence you have to imagine that you're in the future you have to think of some amazing innovation or invention and you have to tell us in 2015 about it as if you were in the whoa that's really cool so you could be like hey I'm here doing the traffic report the flying cars are backed up all the way to here here's the reason like the technical thing if you buy this new card this innocent so it's got to be some sort of so like flying cars you could take it a step further and be like that's sorting on this amazing GPS that you we just never have to worry about flying cars like being in traffic again like they all are gonna blow each other whatever which is so cool and they are allowing people to do it in one of three ways like if because a lot of kids maybe your camera shy or maybe they are better artist than they are you know speakers and so they're doing three different types of entries you can either make a video you can do artwork you can make a drawing or take a photo and you can also do you can also do a short story so they're giving you three different options and they're gonna pick a winner in each category in two age groups so if you're like eight or nine years old and you're thinking oh I don't want to enter because some 15 year old kids gonna beat me like all the older kids are gonna be better than me no not the case because they're gonna split it eight to 12 year old age bracket and then 13 to 17 well what do they win sounds cool the prizes are pretty good especially if you're a kid $3,000 your they're gonna pick one winner in each age bracket for each category so six winners total you're gonna get three grand a 3d printer from 3d systems you're and you're also going to get an invitation to participate in the Disney creativity summer mentorship program which is going to be operated by X PRIZE Foundation which the Disney is doing this contest in conjunction with x prize which is a foundation kind of dedicated to futurism and helping humanity through futuristic sort of inventions and things like that um really funny dozen a 3d printer and you get to intern when you get a mentor with mentors and x prize is like we're the mentors they said we can't tell you we can't announce it yet but they're amazing so we thought that would be a good opportunity to let you guys take the hashtag of the day which is TD prize and tell us who you think the mentors should be fictional or non-fictional you can say a real person or a fake person I would like to suggest zyburg from futurama why not I think why not zoidberg and also I think of learning learning some science from Zoidberg good pretty amazing or completely wrong or awful yeah I could go Terry with humans I don't understand dude I'm terrible i can't do I think JK Simmons would be pretty good i like yeah that's a good one too are you Russian yelling your dragon track you just actually how about Tony Stark Tony Stark when you're just Robert Downey jr. cuz Robert just Tony Stark just have to show up that would be amazing so I guess that's our hashtag of the day yeah TD prize so titty prize tell us who you would you'd want to be in this mentor like who'd you would want to be mentored by fictional or real actually real dead or alive at our lives ok I have anything anything you want to I really would say well Disney I know this sounds so like that sounds corny I don't know I but I'm on evolve Walt Disney I love his like anytime he would like it when he was Disneyland he would sit down with the people they're doing construction any but like stop doing construction let's go to sit down and have an orange juice and he'd find out all the information about what they were doing and then make suggestions even if they were wrong and they and then like he would I love it it's such a great way to mentors to like learn yourself but also yeah I know it's very true and so I think this is such a cool contest I really wanted to talk about it today you can go over to X PRIZE challenge org that has all the details or contest rules all that stuff contest is happening right now but you have plenty of time to enter the contest ends May seventeenth so you have time a lot of our viewers some of our viewers have kids yeah what are you like perfect get your kids involved get your kids involved just hope that like it inspire they get to do whatever they want you predict the future yeah they can predict the future it's it sounds really fun it's something I would have entered when I if I was that age like my kid won't win super into that Mike it would win totally start Mary kids and stop your kids your kids wouldn't have a chance yeah but I don't have a kid so your kiddo now you have a chance you're welcome you're welcome everybody drunk a little Timmy all right on that no we're gonna take a quick break we'll be right back with a really weird back at her hackett that might help you wake up in the morning a little bit better and it's a new take on alarm clock and of course your user feedback and our phone talk for the day so don't click away it's tomorrow daily one of the maxim to show everybody we've returned uh I got a gripe and I I mean this not with you let our style but I have a gripe with my husband so that's our style yes sir I'm gonna complain a little bit about my home life so in the mornings my husband usually wakes up about an hour before i do his alarm goes off he hits the snooze button and then lets it go off again and then he hits the snooze button again and then he gets up but i get woken up because this stupid phone is like going but it didn't really do like it's ridiculous and it makes me very annoyed and this morning he left his phone liked and didn't like shut off the alarm yeah so i had to listen to it go off for about 10 minutes before i had to search the house and hunt it down and shut it this is a true story i had to hunt down that phone and shut off the alarm which made me very mad cuz i was asleep okay so that's probs a home so that brings us to back at her happy I promise this is all relevant so uh this is called wakey its wake with a long e so wakey is this really weird but kind of awesome looking alarm clock it's not really an alarm clock scaring me can I just serve an alarm system yeah I heard Ezra hair lucero labs makes this uh this is the thing that you mount on your ceiling that's what I look like every morning oh my god that's me we just slam the pill on my face like I hate everything that's wakey it's a little box you mount it on your ceiling right there and what it does is it silently rotates towards your face and when your alarm is supposed to go off it shines warm LED light on you as if a sunrise is happening in your face but but not too intense and then also sends a very specific sound wave directly at you it's directed at you so the person next to you cannot hear it so it heats you up to it looks like now it tracks you your body positioning based on your body heat it's an IR sensor there's an IR sensor on the inside and it tracks exactly where you are and it shines a little light in your face it's like look at sunrise get up your body is supposed to like wake up better with sunrise rightfully exactly it till it helps your circadian rhythms and all that other stuff um okay so all right don't wage no age alarm clock no camera in there so you don't have to worry about some weirdo hacking into your Wi-Fi or whatever and like watching you like those weird baby monitor hackers like you've seen those stories so yeah that's really creepy but um so and yeah you and getting out of bed just shut it off so the second you get up and it notices you're not there it's it shuts off that's done okay so that's how it works directed sound gotcha targeted audio right simulated sunrise right in your face okay what are we what are we looking at here ok it's $249 it's a little pricey yeah however you only need to charge it a few times a year so it you don't have to like plugging in every night it would be ridiculous because you're mounting it on your ceiling be insane um they want a hundred thousand dollars they're about halfway there a little under half way marseille they're like between 45 and 50 thousand right now and they have 53 days to go um but this is kind of the cool thing about wakey is that they're hoping that in the future wakie would be expanded in the sense that they could use this as sort of a hub of home automation so when you get up in the morning waking recognizes you've gotten out of bed and it sends a message to your smart coffee maker and it says hey somebody's out bed they're gonna need caffeine soon in your then your machine starts making coffee or maybe the temperature goes up in your house because you're just describing the internet you're getting in a bed yeah it's like the inner thing so they want to be a part of they want to be kind of a hub of the internet of things in your house I wish they'd just started with that that would be really cool so that was they don't have that as a functionality yet but they're saying that's where they would like to go with wakey if they can get this funding and continue developing it they're raised here in LA we should ask him for a demo I like that I like the Internet of Things it's like I will I like the the alarm thing like I do enjoy that but even more so i think i'm with you like I'm more excited about the Internet of Things part but I also Mike will do I want to back it now in the hopes that that will happen cuz it's not a guarantee I feel like I've seen this technology before the like light up thing a friend of mine told me about it when I was in high school there was an alarm clock type of thing I think there's I think there's even one kind of on thinkgeek but not to the not to the degree of it turning and not to bring it right now you sound like none of that stuff um I like the internet of things like I wish you all right now tell me about that cuz now I want that and there's like an app that basically like so you can you know you'll be able to sort of you can snooze it if you need a snooze button you just see you back it for how much 250 250 and then you get it September of this year that's their target delivery day to September of this year so this one is at I'm not I'm not someone who has a problem getting up so this is gonna be like on shark tank if you've ever watched charging all right they go look it's nothing against your product this is just the way I do my business and I don't know enough about your business to back you up so I'm gonna say no all right kills kills a morning person you can get up in the morning I just need to put on a song and it goes off and I go I gotta get my stupid bump a butt up so I gotta get up perhaps so i would say that for my own personal use i would not need this because i tend to be a morning person and can get up immediately when my alarm goes off but being that this is the day in the morning where i was very annoyed by my husband's alarm this morning i was very into this and was like I will pay any price did never have to hear that stupid alarm again yeah I think word of mouth would really do this some good like if I had a friend that was like yeah you gotta check this thing yeah you gotta try you got shine some light on your face we wake up so yeah it's like a beautiful sunrise alright well ya know I think I see this if they start connecting it to start it'd be pretty good like if you had it to like your nest thermostat where its senses hey like somebody's getting out of bed like please turn the temperature up in the house like 78 or whatever you've seen have you seen the episode of black mirror for the holiday the Christmas episode this is very similar to that too okay I gotta watch that but yeah that's uh that's it really wakey so its wake it's the word wake but with a long e if has a line over the day yeah let us know what you think on it too I'm really curious so that being said people letting us know what they think it's time for your feedback last week we asked you guys to tell us what you thought about ya are you what's going on your husband's on the phone he's very upset she's very mad and tired is he crying yeah he's crying alright I'll have to call you back okay all right i'll see you on star citizen by I'll overtax universe soon um oh yeah we did we asked about the dash button okay first of all we mentioned pizza a one-button Pete's ordering I can't tell you how many of you guys sent us a link to this website which is like one button pizza ordering you just click it's thank you I really appreciate that but I was talking about button you take with you all the time looking you don't have need a computer oh it just shows up Scott GPS tracker in it pizza just shows up where you are I don't want that um so I'm taking it a step further yeah uh we asked you guys about TD dad amazon dash buttons how would you use them how would you use them a lot of you guys said pretty much the exact same thing it was kind of amazing tons of responses all pretty much said the same thing except for except for two people what they say Neil said what is the point of these buttons if we're all gonna be too fat to get up and use them I hate this hashtag extremely lazy okay now we get into the people who all said the same thing and I'm not joking there were more of you but I just picked like 30 should Nicholas says toilet paper it would be perfect with an Amazon drone delivery when you're sitting there noticing the obvious plus a GPS they'll be cool guys right in your window Justin wrote in said I honestly need a toilet paper button because my evil cat Snooki and Gaga love destroying my toilet paper okay good North it because this is a cat problems is not a bathroom issue rather have problems uh and then Shannon wrote in said TP cuz no one wants to run out LOL we have an epidemic here people California is running out of water and everyone's running out of toilet paper Syrian need to go to Mars right now and solve this is office so there you go toilet paper was like the nut literally if it was family feud 98 people what is that toilet paper out of a hundred it was incredible I'm glad it was unanimous though pretty I didn't see that I didn't see that on the on there amazon list of things so no that wasn't one of the buttons which I was kind of shocked by bounty the paper towels not toilet paper we're Charmin where's quilted northern continent use bounty to no se very coarse um Chris wrote in to us lastly and said hey gang the Amazon dash button seemed mildly convenient if at all I feel it that if these buttons are a poor use of plastic wireless radios and batteries if my smartphone or computer is easily capable of ordering on amazon than the dash buttons just add another layer of complexity amazon dash the Rube Goldberg machine of easy on light order so he had a he had some other stuff to you about status Sega CD and all that stuff but that was the that was the gist it's a branding thing it's really what it is it's not it's not an evolution it's a branding thing they're like hey tide you can people just order time in order no I you know I'm I wasn't excited about it was looking seem like an April Fool's joke because it's kind of stupid cuz it's a little weird and well I mean I get the one where it's like we're not usually negative but we're analytical weird uh but I mean I get it where it's like okay coffee in an office environment but even then it's like you have one person that usually does that ordering the secretary usually does it so somebody does ordering jaw the secretary yeah we're out of coffee does seem a little off or is it that's her job that they hire us to do like that sort of like Nene office work I agree i think i think if you could tell him sorry maybe take it with you and you click on something like i said customizable buttons would be good or like you know i like GN gps tracking so basically it's like it knows where you are without having to like and it could just a drone this finds you I think that drone is the missing piece of that equation yeah like if you click on it you're like oh my god I need a lightning cable for my iphone i forgot it and you click on it and you like tell what Amazon echo you talking to as a little microphone you I need a lightning cable and then it just charges your Amazon account it like reads your voice algorithm knows it's you charges your account and the little drone comes like 10 minutes later brings you your cable and flies away that's that's the future that's what i want to see that's the future for me that's lazy supervising whatever that guy said look what if I'm traveling and I don't know where what is the best buy's nearest best buy's like 20 miles away like what if I don't know where to I had that problem at pax self I had to go like I had to take a sixty dollar cab ride to buy a ten-dollar square card reader cuz i forgot it at home see that's that would have been really useful amazon i knew that i'd want some like I like there's a dot there's a dog in Fallout and you just tell it hey I need some more bullets and it runs away a and it comes back I just want to draw and following me around oh I thought you were gonna say I just want a dog that can oh that's me i want a drone I'll be like hey man I'm real hungry I need a roast beef sandwich I'll even let you know what no roast beef grilled cheese then it flies away and it just brings back the grilled cheese I like it that's the future that's the pinnacle that's that's the thing I think we need um are you ready for our phone tired for the day oh alright let's do it gotta gotta phone tog refer from China come on hear about it this is from
