Very rare Schuco bear that is also a ladies compact with face powder, a mirror and a section under the head that once would have held lipstick, a small trace of which can be seen.
SEER is a compact humanoid robot developed as results of deep research on gaze and human facial expression. The robot is able to focus the gaze directions on a certain point, without being fooled by the movement of the neck. As a result, the robot seems as if it has its own intentions in following and paying attention to people and its environment. Using a camera sensor and eye tracking, it has an interactive gaze. In addition, by drawing the curve of the eyebrow using soft elastic wire, I was able to enrich the emotional expression of the robot. The purpose of my research and development is not to answer the philosophical question “Will a robot (or computer) obtain a mind or emotions like mankind?” but to portray the sense of conscious human emotion. I think it is possible to represent human-like communications by constructing an adequate interaction system between emotional sensing and expressions. If we understand and identify with robots that can learn the functions and usages of emotional expressions from interactions with people, get a good command of them accordingly with situations and context, could we distinguish them from those with real minds and emotions?
As the first step to realizing this, I thought two conditions were necessary: the eyes to detect the appearance of another's face, and the face to be made appealing to the viewer’s eye.

One of the more subtle senses we have is that of smell. When I opened my mums powder compact, and again when I took the lid off her lipstick - it was as if she was in the room with me.
The compact has a photo of her when she was 17 instead of powder, the blotter has the stain of her lipstick on it. There is a piece of her blue chiffon scarf, printed with the image of a Christmas card dad had sent her over 50 years previously. An antique perfume bottle stands in the corner, it now hold fragrant rose petal beads, made from her funeral flowers. Lastly the mirror reflects a single pink rose - one my own daughter gave me for mothers day the year I lost my own mother.
Another awsome Sport Compact event at WSID.Loads of cars made the trek from all over Aus to compete.Almost capacity entries on the track & a great selection of hot cars on show.
The presentation standard of Sport Compact drag cars has really amazed me so far this year, with a lot of the top runner track cars looking like prestine show cars with candy pearl paint jobs,tastefull air brushing and graffix and tuff drag spec rims all round. these guys have definatly stepped it up a notch!
Took a whole lot of photo's throughout the day, but unfortunatly forgot my memory backup so was limited to 4G worth of space...Ahhhrr.
Anyway, enjoy and please let me know what you think.

Composizione compact con due letti allineati. Ideale per risolvere le situazioni " a cannnocchiale".
My pen is too big for the pen loop (located on the left side of the binder) even though it is partly made of elastic. I hook my pen to the closure.

Warners' Stellian Operations Director Bob Warner loads a dishwasher box full of Styrofoam packaging taken from appliance deliveries into a compactor, which will convert it into reusable material. The process is part of Warner Stellian's comprehensive appliance packaging recycling program.
Today Olympus announced the E-420, a refresh of their "world's smallest" DSLR: the E-410. The E-420 retains about the same weight and dimensions, which makes it roughly 20% smaller by volume and lighter than the entry-level models from Canon, Nikon, and Pentax.
But the real news is a new 25mm f/2.8 pancake lens, only 23.5mm (0.9 inches) long. Pentax already offers an even smaller 40mm f/2.8 pancake lens, but the larger size of the Pentax mount means the new Olympus ends up significantly shallower (25% shallower than the smallest Canon or Nikon setup). Olympus seems to finally be delivering on the promise of Four-Thirds: DSLR quality in a smaller package.
More choice is always welcome, and combined with the soon-to-be-available Sigma DP1, we are now starting to bridge the gulf between DSLR and non-DSLR digital cameras.
At the bottom end of the digital camera marketplace we have cameraphones, which essentially take no space and cost nothing, since you were buying and carrying your phone around anyway, right?
Next are the ultra-compacts, or "pants pocket" cameras. Here you'll find the camera I just bought, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35, as well as its slightly larger competitors, the Canon Powershot SD870 IS and Fujifilm FinePix F100fd. The Panasonic weighs about 50% more than my Motorola KRZR K1m, and is correspondingly larger, but still fits in my pants pocket. As a rough indicator of image quality, these ultra-compact sensors range from about 2.5x to 5x the size of a typical cameraphone's sensor. That's a big difference, and it's obvious in the pictures.
Until recently (with one exception), the only cameras with sensors larger than Fuji's were DSLRs. The smallest DSLR sensor - the Four-Thirds sensor used in Olympus and Panasonic DSLRs - was almost 5x larger than the Fuji F100fd's 1/1.6" sensor. Still larger were "full-frame" sensors used in higher-end Canon (and now Nikon) DSLRs. By my rough calculations, full-frame sensors are about 3.6x the area of Four-Thirds sensors, 17x that of the Fuji 1/1.6", 35x that of the 1/2.5" sensor most commonly used in ultra-compacts, and a whopping 89x the area of a cameraphone's sensor. The overall situation was that there was a smooth progression of compact camera sensor sizes from 1/4" through 1/1.6", and a spectrum of choices among DSLR sensors from 4/3" to full-frame, but a massive no man's land in between.
The exception was Sony's groundbreaking DSC-R1. For a number of reasons that particular model didn't set the world on fire, but it did point the way to a better future. The concept was simple: put a DSLR-sized sensor in a non-removable-lens compact camera. The actual product was a tough sell though: Sony needed to provide a wide zoom range, since this is what people expected in this category, but since lens size is directly proportional to sensor size, the camera ended up significantly bigger, heavier, and more expensive than an entry-level DSLR. It didn't matter that they included one hell of a lens for your $999; the rest of the camera just couldn't compete with cheaper DSLRs, and, in my experience, most people don't factor the cost of the lens into their camera-buying decisions.
Sony didn't follow up - soon afterwards, it entered the DSLR market. For the next year, there were no new products for those who wanted a compact but weren't satisfied with typical compact sensors.
Then came Leica digital. The Leica M8 sported the same relatively compact (albeit dense) dimensions of its film predecessors, but with an APS-H-sized (1.3x-crop) sensor. Although it was longer and weighed more than an entry-level DSLR, it was much shorter and shallower, and more importantly, rangefinder lenses were much smaller than equivalent SLR lenses. Assuming your stitches didn't burst under the strain of all that metal, a Leica could fit in your jacket pocket. And the image quality was at least on par with most DSLRs. There was only one catch: it cost $5500, with lens prices to match.
Fast forward another year-plus, and we're about to have two more mainstream options in the larger-sensor compact camera market. As I've already mentioned, there's Olympus' E-420 and its pancake lens. Then there is the truly groundbreaking Sigma DP1.
While the Olympus pancake kit is impressively compact, it's still almost as deep as it is tall. By contrast, the Sigma DP1 is only slightly larger and heavier than the impressively compact Panasonic DMC-TZ series of superzoom digicams, and is within the same "jacket pocket" class. The Olympus kit is 50% deeper, longer, much taller, and weighs almost twice as much. There is a catch, though, and again it is price. Probably like most people who owned a 35mm compact, my main reason for doing so was not compactness, but price. The Sigma DP1 has a street price of $800, which is $100 more than the Olympus pancake kit and 2-3x the price of a typical compact digicam.
So the current choices for a large-sensor compact camera are:
Leica: biggish, heavy, $7100 w/ 28mm f/2.8 lens
Olympus: big, fairly heavy, $700 w/ 25mm f/2.8 lens
Sigma: small, light, $800 w/ 16.6mm f/4 lens
As you can see, none of the three are direct competitors, even if they're all trying to fill the same need. My opinion is:
Leica: ludicrous price; not compact by my standards
Olympus: not small enough to make a difference in use
Sigma: the right choice, for the right price - which is under $500
You already know my actual choice: a conventional ultra-compact, the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX35. Price was the primary consideration. As I am generally happy with my DSLR, a compact is a second camera. Accordingly, I am not willing to pay as much as I did for my DSLR, and I want its features to complement, not duplicate, my DSLR's. Unlike the other choices, the Panny goes wider than my DSLR standard zoom, can go with me places I can't take a bag or jacket, and takes 720p movies. Yes, I am going to pay the price in image quality - but from what I can tell from sample photos, Panasonic doesn't give up much at small display sizes. I'll just have to adjust my expectations and only print small - isn't that how we were supposed to use miniature cameras before the rise of the megapixel?
As for Leica: you have to admit that a big chunk of the price is brand premium. But what is that brand worth when it's slapped on the front of every plastic wonder that comes out of the Panasonic factory?
