The experience of cinema is just going to get bigger with the launch of Philips Cinema 21:9. Movies are displayed in the 21:9 aspect ratio — exactly as the director intended — on its 56-inch Full-HD screen. Cinema 21:9 is the world’s first TV to deliver a true cinematic viewing experience in the comfort of the home, informs Mahesh krishnan, vice president, consumer lifestyle, Philips, to Tech Gadgets. Traditional LCD televisions compromise on the cinematic viewing experience either by changing the aspect ratio to fill the screen – losing the full scope of the original shot – or by inserting…

Universal credit card in the palm of your hand
Do you remember the magnetic card spoofer in Terminator 2? It was a bit farfetched because apparently the device could be swiped through a reader and magically come up with working account numbers and pin numbers. We’re getting close to that kind of magic with [Jaroslaw's] card spoofer that is button-programmable.
Building off of a project that allows spoofing via an iPod and electromagnet, [Jaroslaw] wanted something that doesn’t require a computer to put together the card code. He accomplished this by interfacing a 20-button keyboard and a character LCD with an AVR ATmega168 microcontroller. Card codes can be…

Seawater cooled data centers
Remember Mauritius from High School geography? We didn’t either, but apparently it’s a small island nation east of the southern tip of Africa. It seems they are trying to develop an industry in eco-friendly data centers. The plan is to use a pipeline to gather cold water from the ocean, run it two miles to the island, and use it as inexpensive cooling. Because rooms packed with servers generate copious amounts of heat it’s easy to see how this can reduce the cost of maintaining a data center.
The thing that struck us here is, how eco-friendly is this?…

Often that may be registering for an email newsletter which can then be used to upsell the user on a product or service. In addition to e-mail newsletters, every modern marketer sends numerous e-mails every day and each of those e-mails should be used as an opportunity to drive…

Touch sensitive keypad
[Viacheslav] built a keypad that uses human capacitance to detect key presses. Unlike normal keys which close a physical connection, his project detects touch through the PCB substrate. He uses the ADC capabilities of an AVR ATmega8 to measure a change in capacitor charges for each sensor in the keypad.
He’s posted the schematic, Eagle files, and source code with his writeup. He also points to a document on the theory behind this: QMatrix Technology White Paper (PDF). We’re impressed at how simple the circuit is: a microcontroller, capacitors, resistors, and a homemade PCB.
