There’s Torso 2, and then Clone Robotics’ Protoclone, the company’s first musculoskeletal android. Put simply, this humanoid robot was designed to mimic human anatomy with a focus on biomimicry, aiming for hyper-realistic movement and structure.
Your eyes aren’t playing tricks, the McMurtry Speirling, an electric hypercar, made headlines by driving upside down at its Gloucestershire headquarters. This trick worked because of its special fan system that pushes air down, making over 4,400 pounds of suction—more than twice what the car weighs—so it can cling to surfaces even when it’s not moving.

People recently noticed a strange triangle-shaped tower on Google Maps near Area 51, a super-secret military base in Nevada, about a 90-minute drive from Las Vegas. Because it looks odd and is in such a hidden, mysterious place, folks are curious about what this building could be.
This interesting project by Mitxela shows text on an oscilloscope by pretending it’s a sound. The plan is to take words, turn them into a sound wave, and then add audio effects to make cool, eye-catching shapes on the oscilloscope’s screen.

The Google Pixel Watch 4 gets rendered by Onleaks and 91 Mobiles based on recent leaks, and it seems to stick closely to the design of its predecessor, the Pixel Watch 3, with a few tweaks. It’s expected to keep the circular, bezel-less look with a rotating crown and a side button on the right, plus a speaker cutout on the left.
Here’s your first look at Morbid Metal, a fast-paced action roguelite game where you slash through enemies in a sci-fi world after everything’s gone wrong—humans are almost wiped out, and hostile machines are in charge. You control characters who use blades and can shape-shift on the spot between up to four different fighters, each with their own moves, special powers, and signature skills.
WEEVIL is an innovative robotic mine plough that the British Army is testing to keep soldiers safer when clearing minefields. It’s run from a distance remotely to dig up explosives without troops having to get close to the danger, a lot better than old ways that need three people to drive big machines right into risky spots.
These little jumping robots from MIT are tiny, smaller than your thumb, and lighter than a paperclip—like a big ant but with serious acrobatic skills. Researchers at MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science made them to hop over obstacles, move across bumpy or slippery terrain, and even do some aerial stunts, all while using way less energy than tiny flying robots. They save about 60% of the power, which helps them keep going longer.
