Some hunters like to show their prized kills as an eternal showpiece. You’ve probably seen the home of a hunter who has an assortment of taxidermy head plaques around their home. These hunting trophies were never quite alive. The Robotic Hunting trophies come in your choice of 11 of the most frequently trophied kills/

When you move close to a Robotic Hunting Trophy, its head looks in your direction thanks to the infrared sensor on the modified I-Cybie robots and their eyes light up with an aggressive glare. The closer you approach, the more vicious the robots become. (more…)

Robots have been so widely used in Afghanistan and Iraq that there have surely been thousands of lives saved by the mechanical wonder dogs. Boeing and iRobot have joined hands in tech harmony to create the SUVG Early, a next-gen reconnaissance robot capable of even more than previous models. The SUGV will be faster, lighter, and smarter than its older brother, the Packbot.

Featuring a video camera, commercial electro-optics, an infrared sensor mounted on its manipulative mechanical arm, and track-driven chassis, the SUGV Early is all around more advanced that any recon robot currently in use. The Early is expected to have a large and diverse customer base and is expected to be ready for delivery by 2008. — Andrew Dobrow

With a name like “DeathAdder”, this mouse pretty much guarantees to bring the pain to all the orc’s and various villains in the gaming world. What can make a corded mouse earn such a sinister name? The DeathAdder comes equipped with a 3G infrared sensor that packs an 1800 dpi resolution. Enough power to pinpoint your dwarf character’s hand to smack the fly on your monitor with an accuracy that would make marine snipers cream their pants with envy. With a response time at the almost non-existent 1ms (possibly even faster then the time it takes for Anna Nicole Smith to clean her plate of cheese cake?), and the Razer made 1000 Hz “Ultrapolling” technology, the DeathAdder is fast enough to be an Olympic gold-medalist.

Razer also adds rubber-coated buttons to the top, to protect from any late night gaming marathon sores (or jerking marathons for you porn-addicts). Sadly, for left handed gamers, the DeathAdder is only available for righties for now. Look for the Razer to be available closer to the holiday’s, and for a relatively cheap price of $59.99, a gamer would be in gear heaven with this wrapped under the tree (or under the menorah for you Jews).
