This delightful couple is celebrating 60 years of matrimony with a duet of the theme to Pixar's Up on piano. They have been playing piano duets together since they were first married, so what better way to celebrate their love? If they aren't a real life Ellie and Carl, I don't know who is.
Is somebody cutting onions in here?
Whoops, yep, that might be the cutest thing I've seen all week. Okay.
Pixar technical director Alonso Martinez made this adorable little robot that's sure to give you the awwws. Described as a "desk companion," Mira is capable of tracking faces in order to play a game of peek-a-boo with the user. According to Martinez,
Mira is a desk companion that makes your life better one smile at a time. This project explores human robot interactivity and emotional intelligence. Currently Mira uses face tracking to interact with the users and loves playing the game “peek-a-boo”. As her understanding of the world and people's emotions get richer so will her ability to interact with people in a more meaningful way.
When Mira sees you during a game of peek-a-boo, she wobbles and chirps with excitement, which surely makes long days stuck at a desk easier. There's no word on whether or not Martinez plans to bring Mira to the consumer market, but if he does, you can bet I'll be first in line to buy one.
What's that? More LEGOs? Why yes, we have plenty! Check the gallery below:
Singing Pup-ductions is working on a shot for shot recreation of Toy Story 3 in real life, which means they have to recreate all the sets from the film from scratch! The attention to detail is absolutely incredible; these Pixar fans didn't miss a thing. Check out photos from their version of Andy's room, his little sister's room, and the daycare below.
