TEDtalk reviews: Vehicle & Robot

1. I liked the visuals and concept behind these vehicles, however at first when the speaker was describing the contraption, he inflated the idea and made it sound like it was going to be something revolutionary. However when he showed clips of the vehicle, all it really was, was a longboard with a remote control. Not to say that the idea isn't cool, but it was lacking innovation. It also just provides a way for people to skateboard around lazily.

2. This robot toy was incredibly cute and smart, but overall the contraption is useless. The speaker also inflated the concept of this toy. It didn't seem practical that the device seemed to have to be an Apple product and that the device had to be hooked up to a box in order for it to work if trying to connect to another device. It looks a toy useful for kid's spy adventure movies, but for everyday use it's impractical.
