Logos and cartoons
Simpsons looks dodgy, bugs bunny looks good, logos are logos.

5 interesting restaurants/menus

http://www.inamo-restaurant.com/gallery-videos.php
Inamo restaurant. You can see the food being prepared, touch screen ables. Lots of videos to watch on the website.


Uwink (images speak for themselves)
http://www.uwink.com/
You can play games while you wait(with strangers as well)



Interactive Wine Bar



http://www.adour-stregis.com/
Also has an interactive wine bar.
The interactive wine bars are touch screens, with additional information on all the wines.

A restaurant in Nuremberg has no waiters, order via a little screen thing, the meals go down these cool little tracks. Awesome.

5 New technologies




http://senseable.mit.edu/flyfire/#
Flyfire  - Little flying helicopters with LEDs that arrange themselves to make an image. Its pretty damn cool. Reminds me of the group of fish that make those shapes in finding nemo.

http://www.tabletouch.com/taptable.htm
Coffee table with built in digital newspaper touch screen. It also has other functions, but I like the digital newspaper aspect the most. Excellent idea.

Never heard of this, don't know if it's new(or relevant). TV signal activates childrens toy when the show comes on tv! Crazy. Childrens toys that advertise other childrens toys... genius.

Virtual assistant software. Collects information from various sources and recommends available options. Only relevant because I use it in one of my concepts... Like virtual intelligence.

New motion tracking thing for playstation. Analyzes household objects to be used in game. Playing a baseball game? scan a baseball bat and use that and the playstation eyecam will recognise the bat and track it. Pretty cool.

Homer simpson, Orthotics and Roundup

 
I should do something about those randomly capitalised words... And that should probably be 'Beaten to death...'
