 Yep, Japan still has the creepy robotics market cornered. Case in point is [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhHo6CUq4-o"]this robotic posterior[/URL]. Don’t worry, they’ve included a dissection so you can see how the insides work too. [via [URL="http://gizmodo.com/5909164/the-most-realistic-robotic-ass-ever-made"]Gizmodo[/URL]]

 As promised, [Quinn Dunki] sent in a link to [URL="https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150864209929586.429880.68033379585&type=1"]the photo album from her time lapse camera module[/URL]. In case you missed it, she [URL="http://hackaday.com/2012/03/29/808-camera-hack-produces-a-time-lapse-tic-tac-box/"]built it in a Tic Tac container[/URL] and stuck it to the side of a racecar.

 Didn’t we learn anything from RoboCop? We could totally see [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rT0OhCDBsGs"]this Kinect controlled robot[/URL] (which happens to weigh five tons) going out of control and liquefying an unsuspecting movie extra standing near it.

 [B]Laser popping domino balloons[/B]

 apparently [Scott] has set a world record by [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EzY30Ah8bKY"]using a laser to pop a line of 100 red balloons[/URL]. We enjoy seeing the size of the 1W laser that does the popping… it can’t be long now before we get a hold of handheld laser pistols.

 [B]Laser balloon targeting[/B]
 [IMG]http://hackadaycom.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/laser-targeting-and-popping.png[/IMG]
 If that last one was a bit of a let down, you might enjoy [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JhAw_ws8gAs"]this automatic targeting system[/URL] more. The blue triangle shaped icon is setting a target, the amber triangles have already been targeted. Once all the balloons are identified a laser quickly zaps each in order. Quite impressive, although no details have been provided. [Thanks everyone who sent in a link to this]
