iPhone-Controlled LEGO Robot Pours Beer
There is something about ingenious, geeky, DIY projects that sets our hearts aflutter, especially when they involve beer.
An intrepid geek has combined Lego building bricks, the iPhone, and Pownce (a Twitter competitor), to construct an automatic, beer-pouring robot. The Lego arm monitors a Pownce RSS feed for the instruction "pour." That word triggers the robot's arm, tilts the beer bottle, and pours a frothy brew into a glass.
Of course, the contraption needs to be loaded with a beer manually and a glass must be placed in front of it before activating the machine. It's pretty cool, but not particularly useful. We'll be sticking with our RC Cooler, which doesn't pour a beer for us, but it can deliver one from across your apartment. [From: CrunchGear, Via: Textually.org]
