Picture this. You've had a long hard day, you've made your boss some money and your parents proud. All you want at the end of that day is to sit down on your couch with a few beers. Introducing an enterprising young man, named Ryan, who just made your life a little more awesome. Ryan's invented an iPhone controlled beer-throwing robot. The way it works is he selects which beer he wants via an application on his iPhone and then selects exactly where in the room he wants the robot to throw, no, hurdle the selected beer at a force of 50 psi to, via a webcam. We know a certain guy who definitely would love this little angel. May the beer be with you The hardware is simple. It's an old mini-fridge Ryan had in college. The application on the phone records every single beer thrown and tweets every toss as well. All I can ask is, where can I sign up for mine? Watch the videos below to see a demo of the beer toss.
