Portal T-Shirts Simulate Teleportation

portal_shirts

The cake really is a lie with these Portal T-Shirts from ThinkGeek. The pair of shirts work in tandem to create the illusion of teleportation, using LCD TFT displays and an embedded 5.8 GHz wireless pinhole camera.

The t-shirt only comes in pairs and are only available in blue and orange, but I don’t think that will stop you from having some amazing Portal fun for only $100. Yes, expensive for a pair of t-shirts, but with the display and camera added into the price, I’d say it’s a pretty good deal.

DIY: Your Very Own Portal Gun

Ever since playing Portal, I’ve always wanted my own Aperture Science portal gun. When the feds are chasing me, there is no getaway cleaner than teleportation. Instructables member Chiok feels the same way and hopes to get into the props and special effects industry by creating this replica of the famous portal gun found in Valve’s puzzle game, Portal.

Using some wood filler and a mess of plastic, foam, paint and chicken wire, Chiok created a near exact replica of the gun. If only it shot portals, then my wildest dreams would come true.
