The iPad can do alot of things, right? Play music, browse the web, play games, control a $15 million dollar yacht, play video... Wait, WHAT?

Yes, you read correct. You probably think this is being made up, but take a look at the yacht:



According to the You must login or register to view this content., the boat is opperated by a remote control that works up to 50 meters away. That remote control is the iPad, Apple's popular tablet. You may even be reading this story on an iPad. The boat is an amazing peice of architecture, designed in China by John Shuttleworth, and owned by shipping billionaire Anto Marden.




My mind is really blown by the fact that the household iPad is being used to control millions of dollars of marine equipment. The people working behind this must be confident in the iPad to be a relaible controller. If it were me, I wouldn't be taking the chance. With that being said, it reflects how powerful these tablets are getting, and there is almost no limit to what they could do in the future.

Anyway, feel free to take a look at the You must login or register to view this content. where you can see the yacht's specifications like maximum speed and height.

If you think about it, its not that amazing. I mean the ipad outputs a signal and the yacht receives it.

Mind=Blown, blows my mind even more knowing that in about 10 years when technology is even more developed which types of things are being created.
I just want to know what the world is going to be like in 10 years. Will there be robots doing stuff for us, more money in the economy its amazing whats happened in the past 10 years.

:lol: You liked my post. :happycry:

So will you be rushing out to buy one? It may be out of your price range, but who cares :p




I'm glad you liked it. :lol: . I saw the story and just had to share it.

Nah, not [s]quite[/s] yet.

Looks like one of those ships from whale wars.

with enough money any boat can be controlled with a ipad
