December 17, 1903


This date is a most historic date indeed. It was the day man was no longer bound by the crippling known as gravity and flew. On this date was the first succesful flight of an airplane. Now of course they did'nt know it at the time but the Wright brothers felt that this was going to work. They tested this on the most questionable of days with the weather being so bad and all and winds up to 22 to 27 miles but it worked and now they're known as legends.

Jules the Talking Robot


Jules is a robotic head that mimics peoples facial expressions. It's a break through in human robotic interaction. It can grin and grimace, furrow its brow and 'speak' as his software translates real expressions observed through video camera 'eyes'. Jules is avery unique robot.
Jules mimics the expressions by converting the video image into digital commands that make the robot's servos and motors produce mirrored movements. He truly is an incredible robot indeed.

Gilbraltra Bridge


The Gilbratra Bridge... Another dream becoming. Many say the gilbratra bridge is impossible to build with it being 5,000 meters but nothing is impossible.With it being this enormous length designers are stumped because no one type of bridge can span this length. So designers have to think of a totally new bridge design. Something between a cable stay bridge and a suspension bridge. Alone theses two types of bridges could'nt get the job done but together the best features of these bridges could span this great length.

It measures up to 1400mm long and has a condominium housing up to 30,000 people. It is said that it is like a moving city going from coast to coast picking up many people. Unfortunately this is only a dream until it can be built.Its massive size poses a problem for its consturuction. So until then it remains a dream.
