    Tangible Tech Episode 7: Drones 101, or “How do those things stay in the air?”

    Tangible Tech podcaster Steve Sande is not only a science and tech guy, but he's a licensed drone pilot. When he's out flying, one of the common questions he gets from bystanders is "How the (#&$ do those things fly without having wings, a rudder, and that other stuff you see on airplanes?" In this episode of the Tangible Tech podcast, Steve explains how quadcopters (those drones you see just about everywhere) are able not only to take off and land, but do some pretty amazing maneuvers as well. Don't worry; you won't need a degree in aerospace engineering to understand what Steve's saying, just an imagination and your hand... You'll understand what I'm saying once you listen to the podcast. 😀 If you like the Tangible Tech podcast, won't you consider supporting it by becoming a subscriber?

    Tangible Tech Episode 5: Google Fines, VR, Intel and a Site

    Hola! Episode 5 of the Tangible Tech podcast is here, and I have some exciting news for you...but first, let me tell you what the stories are about today. First, we talk about Google getting whacked with a $5.1 billion antitrust fine by the EU, including the effect it may have on Android phones. Next, virtual reality may finally have a chance to shine. Steve talks about Oculus Go, the new $199 standalone VR headset that could open the doors to using VR for a lot more than just gaming. Intel celebrated its 50th anniversary by flying 2,018 of its Shooting Star drones in formation, and it's spectacular. Finally, Tangible Tech is about to be more than just a podcast. In the next week we'll take the wraps off of a new, fast-loading and ad-free website. Like Tangible Tech? Leave us feedback and share with friends!

    Tangible Tech Episode 4: Getting Down to Brass Tacks

    Today's episode of Tangible Tech mixes a bit of news with a seasoning of history, and also sets us up for a future episode on a topic that listeners -- and podcasters -- are trying to get their minds around. To begin, we start off with a request for all of you in the Tangible Tech audience to share the podcast with at least one friend...hopefully more! That follows with an odd etymological detour that leads into our first story. Would you believe that model rockets are now getting the same thrust vectoring technology that's used in the "real" rocket business? Steve talks about Barnard Propulsion Systems' new Signal Alpha flight computer. Model rocketry was big in the early 70s, and Steve provides you with a history lesson about a company that made electronic accessories for these little rockets and took a detour into jump-starting personal computers. The latest with drones? How about finding and fixing potholes in roads?! We take a message from a listener...
