No, that is not a joke. Do you see Chuck Norris anywhere? See. The lovely team of element 14 presents did just do that: They developed their version of a working Tricorder. 

Ha! Should not you know, what a Tricorder is … No, it was not Star Wars!

James - your host for the next 19 minutes and 17 seconds - builds what he calls the Baldcorder 👨‍🦲. Inspired by the Tricorder’s design, his device can measure light levels and temperature. Decide, whether this is for you. It is definitely funny.
