Coolock VillageCoolock Village's Water Pressure Problem Is a Fire Safety Risk
Coolock Village and the surrounding areas have had dangerously low water pressure for over 40 years. Firefighters have already been forced to call in water tankers. Now a 6-storey apartment complex is opening on the same network, and nobody will confirm it is safe.

MactonexStayed in the Tower Hotel in London recently and the water pressure in the bathroom was insane! Filled the bath in just under 30 seconds. It took longer to empty than it did to fill. #London #TowerHotel #WaterPressure #bath
Dave Portnoy π€Well that seals it. No matter what happens the rest of the way. Best president ever. #waterpressure

Why Your Water Pressure Has Dropped and What to Do About It - Alternative Mindset
Low water pressure isnβt something that most people think about until they experience it. While you can probably bear with it as you fill the sink to wash the dishes or do your teeth, it transforms a good shower into a poor one.

hackaday unofficialTaking A Stroll Down Uncanny Valley With The Artificial Muscle Robotic Arm
Wikipedia says "The uncanny valley hypothesis predicts that an entity appearing almost human will risk eliciting cold, eerie feelings in viewers." And yes, we have to admit that as incredible as it is, seeing [Automaton Robotics]' hand and forearm move in almost human fashion is a bit on the disturbing side. Don't just take our word for it, let yourself be fascinated and weirded out by the video below the break.
While the creators of the Artificial Muscles Robotic Arm are fairly quiet about how it works, perusing through the [Automaton Robotics] YouTube Channel does shed some light on the matter. The arm and hand's motion is made possible by artificial muscles which themselves are brought to life by water pressurized to 130 PSI (9 bar). The muscles themselves appear to be a watertight fiber weave, but these details are not provided. Bladders inside a flexible steel mesh, like finger traps?
[Automaton Robotics]' aim is to eventually create a humanoid robot using their artificial muscle technology. The demonstration shown is very impressive, as the hand has the strength to lift a 7 kg (15.6 lb) dumbbell even though some of its strongest artificial muscles have not yet been installed.
A few years ago we ran a piece on Artificial Muscles which mentions pneumatic artificial muscles that contract when air pressure is applied, and it appears that [Automaton Robotics] has employed the same method with water instead. What are your thoughts? Please let us know in the comments below. Also, thanks to [The Kilted Swede] for this great tip! Be sure to send in your own tips, too!
