Self-leveling technology.  A neat idea. Probably not cost-effective for restaurant tables, but still pretty cool.  After watching their ridiculous ad on their website: flat.net.au you’d think they were selling wine, or a time-share in Monte Carlo, but no, it’s an automatic, hydrolic, table leveler. Yay!

Actually they claim it’s for any application where stability and being level are important.  Depending on what your application was and knowing how much it costs this could be a very useful technology.  On the other hand, unscrewing the foot of the table out a bit to level it, seems like the much simpler and cheaper solution.

If I were to ask you what is the hardest thing about preparing a meal in the kitchen, I’m sure you’d all answer the same thing, right? Opening drawers…wait, what? Yes, it’s true.  What once took you half a second to do now, only takes…well a little longer, but at least you don’t have to do all that pesky pulling. I present Servo-Drive from Blum, Inc.  All the drawers respond, seemingly to any kind of contact, intentional and otherwise.  Tap the cabinet and it opens, bump the drawer and it opens, throw your girlfriend up against counter in the heat of passion.  It opens. video after the jump.
