We couldn’t find any sources other than this Tennis ball throwing machine patent and a simliar device called GoDogGo!. We think it’s basically a tennis ball throwing machine that can be used for your dog.
Even better, you could probably hack one up yourself if you were a good hacker.

Zedomax Christmas DIY - Voice Activated Christmas Lights!
Click Here to View in Full Screen Mode
Here’s Zedomax Christmas DIY #2, a “better” version of Christmas Light Controller.
Garrett has been building this cool voice activated Christmas Light controller.
It’s a Christmas Light Controller that can be voice activated or set your Christmas
lights to different programmed modes. Garrett explains the source code in detail.
The source code is open-source, so you can skip programming and simply copy
and paste his code.
Basically the Christmas Lights respond to the sensitivity of sound. You can easily
set your Christmas Music on and watch your Christmas tree sync to the music or
set it to automatic blinking modes.
Slightly different from the Music syncing Christmas Lights, you can connect up to
48 AC devices by hacking it even further, but we will leave that to you.
Check out the DIY on our wiki for better viewing.

Automatic Pilot Helicopters - MIT profs create autonomous UAVs
The MIT Team is using DraganFlyer helicopters, Gentoo Linux, Gumstix, and Vicon Motion Capture Systems and has sponsorship from Boeing.
Creating a robot that can manage to fly around a room on its own without hitting a wall is a mean feat to pull off, but that’s exactly what a team of professors at MIT have managed to do. Their multiple-UAV test platform is capable of complex tasks like following moving ground-based objects with little or no direct control from a human — yup, unfortunately that geek dream of a cockpit will no longer be required if these guys get their way. The current test setup is made up of $700 four-rotorblade helicopters, monitored by networked computers, which could theoretically allow a single person — or even a bored student with an internet connection — to control several UAVs at a time. Current flying drone systems require a team of trained personnel to keep a single UAV airborne and on target, so this endeavor is certainly a step up in software terms. How well the test system will transition from tracking radio controlled cars in a lab to lets say, a stolen car going at 125MPH, remains to be seen.
