  1. So just how tiny can we cheaply make an INS? on Cheap, Paper RF ID Tags To Replace Barcodes? · · Score: 1

    Apparently it is currently feasible to embed an Inertial Navigation System in something as small as a computer mouse -- (http://www.aspy.demon.co.uk/#_Toc480990320) Wedded to a RFID tag and given a little memory, you could make little capsules that, when scanned, divulge precisely the path through space they have taken. There's gotta be some way to have fun with a box of those... Possibly a way to do Inverse Kinematics in an unrestricted environment?

  2. legal fund on The Kid Who Wouldn't Be King (UPDATED) · · Score: 1

    I think one of the best ways to combat violence in our schools is to encourage respect for the rights of those who are imprisoned in them. I have already sent my objection to the principal of the school -- c/o the school's webmaster. Now I am interested in contributing a little $$ to whatever legal fund the Griffiths may be getting together. If anyone knows how to get in touch with the Griffiths, please post so we can show our support.
