USB Laser Guided Audience Acquisition

Striker 2 Laser Guided Missiles

Having seen this in several places now, I finally thought of a way to tie this completely insane USB gadget into aWiderNet. The Striker II is a USB Missile Launcher that allows you to use your computer to adjust its trajectory, point a laser at your intended target, and fire. It has (to my knowledge) absolutely zero work-related merit. It is, however, the best way to get gadget-hounds like me to attend a webcast. Most of your audience has all the MP3 players and USB memory sticks they can stand. This cube warfare device would get them to eat a sandwich at lunch just hoping to score one of these puppies, since they could never buy one for themselves - wives and managers would never approve.

    Wow, this is awesome. Here’s a use: Audience participation at a live event!

    Gaming:
    * Randomly choose an audience member (oh, that’s beautiful if I may say so myself)
    * Integrate it with audience response to illustrate how “on target” a team is based on ARS results. Might as well have the target hit the goal (prize) they will receive.
