How do you clean all the crumbs and pieces of food that come out of a deep fat fryer? Which ever way you do it, I strongly suspect that, unlike this restaurant in Japan, you don’t install a fish tank underneath, pop in a few goldfish and simply let them [...]

Some weeks ago we featured an animation called ‘Wii – Hold on Tight’ that caused quite a stir, not only on TFTS but across the net in general (if you missed this first installment, you can see it here). Brent Young, one of the chaps behind the animation has been [...]

The greatest form of camouflage is a cloak of invisibility and these videos show that quite apart from being science fiction, such technology is already science fact. We’ve seen a fair few posts concerning new technologies that, in essence, offer camouflaging by seemingly rendering an item as invisible – such [...]

It’s been a while since we posted a video on TFTS but to be entirely honest with you it’s been equally as long since I’ve watched a video that struck me as worth posting. But there can be little doubt that this video, showing IO2’s M3 holographic display in action [...]

As a result advertisers are persistently coming up with new ways to present [...]

In theory voice recognition is a great idea, allowing us merely to reel off text just by sitting back in a chair and blabbing away. But, like many theories, something often gets lost in the transition from theory into actual practice and our experiments with voice recognition certainly haven’t been [...]

This interesting video shows exactly what an airliner’s wing has to go through before it takes to the air – and, in this case, we are talking about testing to complete destruction. Boeing’s target for this particular test was that the wing should be able to withstand up to 150% [...]
