Berkeley Ridiculously Automated Dorm (BRAD)

Ah, college, it's a time when most of us gain our greatest life skills (like figuring out how to pass a class without actually attending). While we devoted most of our time towards social achievements rather than scholarly (sp?) ones, we did pick up a bunch of knowledge we've implemented in our…

Cavemen didn't complain about sore muscles after hunting all day (we assume), but recently we've developed things like "iPad neck" and FaceTime shoulder cramps. Luckily, while we shrivel into a breed of girlie men, we happen to be getting smarter and smarter,…
