THE FUTURE — It's Super Bowl Sunday. At least, I think it is. I don't really follow that stuff.
If it really is Super Bowl Sunday (it is), you may be loving it and will not see this because you've already been enjoying pre-game festivities for hours. Or you may be rolling your eyes as far back in your head as you can in reaction to all the sportsing talk jamming up your social media feeds.
If you're an eyeroller, I offer up this humble video from YouTube user Simone Giertz, who describes herself as a "robotics enthusiast" and "non-engineer." She is single-handedly working to make your future brighter with her novice robot builds.
OK, not really. In fact, if you've ever seen any of her videos, you know the only use her robots will likely ever have is pure entertainment value, just like the bad infomercials she sometimes emulates with her videos.
That being said, I for one would clamor to get my hands on this handy robot that expertly applies perfect lipstick every time. What a time saver that really shows us the future is now.
If a lipstick robot isn't really your thing, also check out her chopping robot that slices and dices as well as any professional chef.
