If you're a gamer, than you might remember Mad Catz Cyborg R.A.T. 7 gaming mouse that we covered a while ago. If you liked that mouse, we're happy to inform you that we have a new model coming from Mad Catz, so let's have a closer look at it.

Latest mouse from Mad Catz is called Cyborg R.A.T 7 Contagion, and just like the R.A.T.7, this mouse features 6400 DPI twin eye laser sensor that reads each axis separately providing you with the best accuracy. In addition to that, we have to mention that this laser sensor can track up to 6 meters per second. Another interesting feature that Cyborg R.A.T 7 Contagion has to offer is the Rocker Switch that allows you to toggle between your custom DPI settings, and it has five programmable buttons. Just like with the previous models, you can adjust the length of the mouse, but you can also change pinkie grips, palm rests, and weights. This model also has Precision Aim that lets you slow down your mouse movement to a desired value while you hold the Precision Aim button pressed.

Mad Catz Cyborg R.A.T 7 Contagion is a great mouse for gamers, and we should see this mouse in North America and Europe, but the price is still unknown.

New and improved ASIMO from Honda

Posted: 16 Nov 2011 02:03 AM PST

After seeing Primer-V2 robot that drives a bicycle, we have to wonder what happened to the older robots such as ASIMO. In case you're a fan of ASIMO, we're happy to inform you that Honda Motors has introduced new and improved ASIMO robot, so let's see what new ASIMO can do.

According to the creators, the new ASIMO will be able to change its behavior and to adapt to the current situations. Unlike the previous model, new ASIMO uses pre-set space sensor, so it can predict direction in which people are going, and it can use that data to avoid collisions. In addition, the new ASIMO also comes with face and voice recognition, so it can speak with multiple people simultaneously. Despite these improvements, we also have to mention that ASIMO also features a highly functional multi-finger hand that allows it to work better with certain objects.
