Beagleboard takes Martin closer to Machine

GM belt computer2.JPGOn his blog Becoming Cyborg, inventor Martin Magnusson has revealed his own wearable computer.

Much Velcro means he can reconfigure it - inside a CD carry case, or spread out on a shoulder belt - which is not pretty, but damn fine for a prototype.

Who is Magnusson?

"I'm a researcher and entrepreneur on a mission to advance the state of artificial intelligence in computer games towards the level of a human actor."

An iPhone handles communication.
