Jake Carlini literally wore an electric bike on his body for this latest stunt. Yes, he built a wearable machine that’s cool to watch and terrifying to ride by using his own frame as the backbone of a disassembled e-bike.
Evan Monsma’s studio in Indianapolis is where broken gadgets are reborn into something incredible, rather than tossed out into the trash. His latest project – turning a smashed iPhone into a seriously capable cinema-grade camera by slapping on some old C-mount lenses – is pure proof that imagination really can meet DIY skills head on.
The 8Bitdo Ultimate 3-Mode Controller looks pretty familiar because it’s officially licensed for Xbox. Not to mention its price has dropped to a much more reasonable $37.09 from the original $69.99. It’s 6.3 inches long, comes with a charging dock, a USB-C cable, and two spares for when you break a joystick cover (because let’s face it, that’s bound to happen at some point).

Every city block is speckled with streetlights leaving Penn State researchers to come up with a new idea: turn these everyday fixtures into electric vehicle chargers. It’s a pretty straightforward solution to a problem that has really stumped urban planners and EV drivers – getting charging to be accessible to everyone, especially those who don’t have a garage or driveway and can’t afford to install a charger at home. This technology got tested out in Kansas City, Missouri and has the potential to revolutionize how cities help the transition to electric vehicles.
At the RAI Institute, a team of engineers have given Boston Dynamics’ Spot a whole lot more to offer than just its nimble walking abilities. They’ve managed to turn it into something that can not only pick up heavy objects but actually manhandle them with the same level of coordination you’d see from a pro working in a warehouse. The magic happens by combining two smart control methods : one that figures things out through trial and error, the other that simultaneously tries out dozens of possible paths.
Ferrari’s F40 is a sacred automobile in automotive history, as it was born in 1987 to commemorate the company’s 40th anniversary, and was the final project approved off by Enzo Ferrari himself. Its twin-turbo V8, carbon-Kevlar body, and lack of driving assistance enabled it to become the first road car to reach 200 mph.
Supernova Games Studios has just unveiled their latest installment in the Assetto Corsa series, and it appears that Assetto Corsa Rally will be a crazy trip to say the least. On November 13th, 2025, it will be available for $29.99 through Steam’s Early Access, marking the second game in the series to be released this year, following the launch of Assetto Corsa EVO in January.

Phone Repair Guru disassembled an iPhone 17 Air to remove the rear glass and reveal what’s inside – a more difficult task than normal due to the phone’s curved camera region, which required a delicate touch. He documented every step, turning a rather simple disassembly into a nail-biter that eventually paid off with some pretty spectacular results.
Atari just breathed new life into a legendary console from back in the 1980s that went head to head with the original Atari 2600. Behold the Intellivision Sprint, a redesign of the classic brought into the modern age. Its history is a well known one – it battled it out with the 2600, and now four and a half decades later, Atari is reviving the brand, teaming up with Plaion to launch this latest incarnation.
