Xshift created a modular racing dash box for simulators that simply clicks together like a set of puzzle pieces, each held in place by a magnet. Each element has its own set of controls and readouts, and they all connect to a central unit for stability and data collection. The end result is a fully equipped control panel that is just as detailed as a real rally vehicle cockpit.
Chargers are often tucked into drawers and bags because most of us simply plug them in and forget about it, but Anker’s Nano 45W Smart Charger, priced at $27.99 (was $40), is different. Travelers are constantly looking for gear that does not take up too much room, and the Nano is a game changer. It’s small enough to put in a pocket or a carry-on, yet it delivers an impressive 45 watts of power via a single USB-C port. The prongs fold up in two directions.
SNK and Plaion introduced an all-new NEOGEO AES+ console, allowing aficionados of the original hardware to play their old favorites in spectacular high definition on current screens. This console hits stores on November 12 and is available for preorder right now through the official website.
One developer modified a popular 3D slicing tool, allowing conventional 3D printers to spew out items in a variety of colors from just four spools. To do this, the software divides the item into extremely thin layers and then determines the exact pattern to mix and match these layers to achieve the required hue. Users select a color, and the software performs the rest, determining the optimal sequence and layer ratio to ensure the color is visible throughout the print.
Set in neon-lit 1993, the new Street Fighter film follows Ryu and Ken, formerly best friends but now estranged, as they are brought back together by the mysterious Chun-Li. Some nefarious powers lurk in the shadows of the World Warrior Tournament, compelling the couple to confront each other as well as some unpleasant memories from their past that they thought they’d forgotten.
DJI’s Osmo Pocket 4 was announced in China today as the long-awaited successor to the incredibly popular Pocket 3, featuring a number of upgrades that sharpen image quality, make the whole thing a lot easier to operate, and provide the kind of stability you rely on on a daily basis. This camera’s 1-inch CMOS sensor has been upgraded to provide fourteen stops of dynamic range and ten-bit D-log color.
Derek Muller from Veritasium collaborated with Marques Brownlee on a wild experiment. They wanted to try draining money from a fully locked iPhone with nothing but a tap and some flashy, yet relatively clever, equipment. Marques plugged his phone into a little reader that was connected to a laptop. The screen stayed dark and locked the entire time, showing no signs of life. Then, a few seconds later, the first charge arrived for $5. They kept going, increasing the amount until they had siphoned off a total of $10,000.
Rolls-Royce debuts its first vehicle in the Coachbuild Collection, as well as its first electric convertible, Project Nightingale. They’ve packed a lot into this $9.5-million two-seater open-top vehicle, approximately 19 feet from front to back, which is the same length as the Phantom sedan. The idea is for it to operate just as smoothly with the top down as with it up. In 2028, 100 of these will roll off the lot and into the hands of their new owners, provided that those owners are invited to commission one of them in the first place, and deliveries will begin following some summer testing.
Adam Savage walks into IMAX headquarters in Los Angeles, hoping to get up close and personal with the raw film that creates those immersive visuals on-screen. First, he enters the vault, which houses hundreds of 70mm prints, a bizarre sight. Then he meets with the technicians in the print assembly room, followed by a tour of the projection booth, which serves as the final inspection before the directors give their approval.
Quantum computers have the ability to solve some extremely tough problems that are virtually impossible for regular computers to crack. There is one catch: those incredibly sensitive quantum bits known as qubits can be thrown out of sync by the smallest disturbance, forcing researchers to spend an eternity modifying hardware and correcting errors on the fly. That has all changed with NVIDIA’s recent announcement, which includes a set of open AI models that anybody may download and adapt.
