Egg Drop Experiment
by Peter on Mar.17, 2010, under Stuff, Uni
We had to design and construct a device that would allow an egg to fall from appoximately 4 metres without cracking. It had to be less than 300x300x300mm with 50% of the egg visible and the lighter weight the better. There was a huge range of different designs and some of the really complex ones failed but our simple paper tube ones worked pretty good.
Samsung HMX-U10 Unboxing Review
by Peter on Feb.01, 2010, under Stuff, Videos
This was an impulse buy off Catch Of The Day for $150 but it has some neat features. Mainly being that it can record in full HD with a resolution of 1920×1080 @ 30 fps. It also has some timelapse features and the ability to take photos. It can also record at 1280×720 @ 60 fps.
Below are some test videos showing the difference between 1920×1080 @ 30 fps and 1280×720 @ 60 fps. I prefer the look of the 60fps. I don’t think youtube really shows the difference as they’ve been re compressed but I’ve added the raw MP4 files for download.
