If you've ever wondered what a Kinect with DSLR image resolution might be like... well, you'll have to wait. But for now, this is the next best thing: called RGBDToolkit, it's a project designed to layer HD video over Kinect's depth maps. And it's pretty neat. More »

Newcastle University preps in-car GPS for the elderly, helps grandmum get home safely

Most Engadget readers will have grown up with GPS, but the UK's Newcastle University has realized that many in the older generation might be first-timers and unfamiliar with all those keep-lefts and turn-rights. Development is underway at the school for a new satellite navigation system that would be easier and more intuitive for your grandfolks, with features that include calling out direction changes by landmark names, limiting turns to the safer variety and keeping the route off of high-speed motorways. When this might come to your local high street shop isn't known, but the university has a £12 million ($19.5 million) research grant to help sort that out.

Britney Spears: Sort of Dissed By The Wanted!


Just a few days after calling Christina Aguilera a bitch (a total bitch, to be more specific), The Wanted is dishing on Britney Spears in less-than-glowing fashion.

The British boy band said in a radio interview yesterday that they were told "not to even look" at the pop princess when they opened for her in concert.

Spears' camp denies, and is far from pleased with the claim.

Britney Spears, The Wanted

"What's even more interesting than these false allegations is the fact that they have claimed to be picked on by two female pop stars in just a few days," her rep says.

"Look out Lady Gaga, there are still three days left this week."

The Wanted said the Spears incident happened while Siva Kaneswaran and their tour manager were looking at a laptop in a hallway. Security ordered them to turn away, supposedly, because Brit was about to come through, they said.

"We faced the wall for about 10 seconds until she got really far away," Kaneswaran said.

When the DJ said they were probably just "messing" with the group, Kaneswaran insisted, "It was serious." His band mate Jay McGuiness did acknowledge that "When we actually met her person to person she was so down-to-earth."

It sounds like Britney had zero inkling of any bad blood here. Spears even tweeted a photo of them together (above), saying "Love them!"

More like loved them.

Josh Barnett: ?I was born for this?

On May 19, Josh Barnett will take on Daniel Cormier to decide the winner of the Strikeforce heavyweight grand prix. When he walks into that cage, he'll bring with him the experience of 36 fights, including eight wins in his last eight bouts. In the video above, he says he was born to fight, and has a mean streak no one else has. Will that make a difference against Cormier, who has elite wrestling and knockout power? Tell us in the comments, on Facebook or on Twitter.

A Professional Recording Studio in an Unbelievably Tiny Room [Where The Magic Happens]

Paul McCartney, Bruce Springsteen, and The Foo Fighters have something in common with Brooklyn-based musician Neil Shah—they all made great music in a basic home studio. McCartney and Springsteen had a four-track cassette deck, and Dave Grohl used a garage. But Shah's setup is even more limited—his whole studio measures all of 66 square feet. Here's how he made it work. More »
