Antistress balls ?

DEMONEX · Mar 29, 2011

Flaming juggling ball, kevlar.
I'm sure.

A new for you:

Kevlar · Mar 29, 2011

@demon, Ion fan.

DEMONEX · Mar 29, 2011

Yeah, it's a fan without blades. Ion I don't know.
I promise to find something more hard next time

It's the work of Mr Dyson.
It's your turn

Fire Juggling Balls: Serious Juggling

Kevlar · Mar 29, 2011

I have to defer to someone else for now. Im on my droid at the hospital. My little girls is having her tonsels and adnoids out today.

HIMNL9 · Mar 29, 2011

LOL at fire juggling for serious users ..... wondering when they start to sell "random-time frag grenades for also more serious jugglers" .....

In the meantime, have fun with this one:

Must be easy, it's a very common object for PC users, just seen from a different angle (try to be more specific possible

)

Bluetooth dongle

Hell, i know it was too easy ..... next time i will post something really evily

ped wins :beer:

EDIT: i just acquired a new curiosity for my collection, and want to post it ..... not for the game itself, cause i think is discretely hard to guess this one ..... just for the fun to see if anyone may have meet something similar, and for see if someone can guess its use.

As i've said, this is NOT part of the current game, it's posted just for the fun ..... looking at its shape, it's relatively easy to say what is its function, but let me see if someone can guess where it was used and for what purpose ..... as help, i can say you that you probably may have never seen one of these, except if you was working for Grundig when they started to sell their first car radios with CD player

car movement detector
to adjust the reading of the CD, if too violent movement

HIMNL9 · Mar 29, 2011

Close enough, congratulations :beer:

This came from the first cd player for cars produced ..... in that time, the technology was not able to "store" the audio stream and recover from the right point, as now they do, when the bumps and vibrations was causing defocusing (at least, not more than half second), so they integrated this 2-axis accelerometer as "active vibrations canceller" ..... it was reading the vibrations at which the reading head was more sensitive (the diapason-shaped forks was "tuned" for resonate at the same frequency of the mass of the reading head), and actively correct the driving signals, trying to minimize the displacement.

Not a bad solution, considering the age of the thing

..... you can also see what i mean looking at the inside of the RISC CPU that was controlling this player:

It's production number is LA1, so i suppose it's one of the first produced models ..... wondering if someone of you may have guess it, if i had posted it as "guess what is" object, LOL

ped · Mar 29, 2011

ok have this.

HIMNL9 · Mar 29, 2011

Uhm, at first sight, it looks as some sort of scrubbing device, like those brushes for clean inside the bottles ..... but it appear made in silver ..... and also, the fact that if you "close" it, it ends in a smooth shape .....

Does it have something to do with "medical" use ?

Very nice champagne "blend" (I don't know the name in english)
we said "touilleur à champagne" in France.

ped · Mar 29, 2011

I suppose i'll have to give it to DEMON

Its for removing the bubbles out of champagne or fizzy wine before serving.
