Analyst: Voice-based GPS turn-by-turn directions for iPhone coming within three months

"Apple’s online App Store for the iPhone, with hundreds of programs available so far, has been a big hit since it opened July 11. But one thing that’s conspicuously absent is a navigation program with voice-based, turn-by-turn directions that utilizes the iPhone 3G’s new GPS receiver," Suzanne Choney reports for MSNBC.

1920s SatNav Out-Performs iPhone

1403361.jpgAnybody disappointed by the iPhone's lack of turn-by-turn navigation should take a humbling look into the past. The Plus Fours Routefinder, released in 1920, took on the work of many of today's devices, but in a rather handsome analog form.

Judge dismisses iPhone suit against Apple

As the old saying goes, the wheels of justice turn slow…I think there’s more to it, but the wheels of aphorism actually turn even slower. Last year, a man by the name of Jose Trujillo—whom, as we noted, was probably not a reader of our blog—launched the first (but far from the last) class action suit against Apple over the iPhone. Now, according to Bloomberg, that suit has been dismissed.

Indian-American programmes robots to follow the leader better

An Indian-American professor of engineering has programmed a robot that can sense your head turning left a fraction of a second before your body makes that left turn. That turn of the head is the cue it will pick up to keep following.

Robots Learn To Follow

Rather than have the lead robot signal the follower directly, the research team sent "behavioral cues" to the follower via wireless link. Effectively, the cues told the robot, "the leader might be about to turn right" or "might be about to turn left." To develop a decision on how to move, the follower robot was programmed to take into account the lead robot's behavioral cues and the follower's prediction of the lead robot's movement, based on the leader's current speed and direction.

Meet the Characters of Dokapon Kingdom

Like most RPGs worth their salt, Dokapon Kingdom allows players to choose from a variety of job classes in the development of their ideal adventurer. At the beginning, players choose from one of three job types - Warrior, Thief, or Magician - each with a unique bonus ability or trait. For example, the Warrior can randomly receive a boost to his or her attack at the start of a turn, although the Warrior insists that no illegal performance enhancement drugs are involved. The Thief can steal one random item or field magic from another player when he or she passes through them on the play field (and they really don’t care what they snatch, so long as their target has something to lose). Lastly, the Magician can cast two field magic spells prior to their turn, whereas other player classes can only cast one.
