Pretty Cool - Real Life Halo Suit

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

You read right ladies and gentleman, this pretty cool Canadian guy - famous from the movie, Project Grizzly - has turned his bear suit into a Halo replicia. Don’t ask us how or why or when, but after the crazy stuff he got up to in Project Grizzly, you can’t expect anything else. So this pretty cool Halo Suit he says can handle some Ballastic shots. Yet there doesnt seem to be too much proof that it can handle it

I still can’t figure out if this guy is completely serious, or if people actually take him up on it. But pretty cool exo-skelton suit. He wants the Canadian Government to take him up on the offer, but we highly doubt they will.

So he makes a cool cult movie, we didn’t really like it when it came out, but he has taken the crazy bear suit, and turned it into the real life Halo suit. You tell us, is he for real or just playing around?

Pretty Cool - Multi Touch

Monday, May 5th, 2008

Seth Sandler has created something pretty cool. With all the hype about touch computing, especially Multi-Touch due to iPhone and iTouch, here is a pretty cool low budget way to take a normal laptop, a webcam, and turn it into a custom laptop with touch software.

Seth really gives you a true step-by-guide with is pretty cool, as not too many guys out there would do the same. All the cool software he uses is open-source (read: it can be used for free) so as long as you have a spare webcam lying around, you can achieve the same pretty cool effect.

I think its great that everyone is customising laptops and customising software to further push forward touch technology. Sure its mainly the computer geniuses that have the time and the ability to do the pretty cool hacks, but all that means is that it makes it easy for the rest of us to do the same.

So sit back and watch this pretty cool video, and if you try it out, leave a comment and let us know how you go!

Cool Car - Cool Motorbike

Is this a pretty cool car or a pretty cool motorbike? Well, technically its a trike, but who really cares, because it looks absolutely awesome! This machine is on limited runs, but everyone wants one because of how cool it is. Would I use one everyday? If it is as cool to drive as it looks, then I would have to say yes. Unfortunately, we here at Yeah, its Pretty Cool can’t afford one and I doubt any of us would ever get the chance to drive one.
