Zero just revealed something new from its California garage, a machine that can slice through downtown traffic without a single drop of gas. Unveiled at EICMA 2025 in Milan, the LS1 electric scooter is Zero’s entry into a world where two wheels means quick escapes and even quicker savings.
Expedition trucks typically start as military surplus, but few end up feeling like mobile hotel suites. The Maniac takes that concept to the next level, with a MAN-KAT truck, one of those old German army beasts designed to move goods over mud and mountains. Turkish contractors at Sya Mobil spent nearly two years converting it into a people mover before delivering it to the Atik family in 2023. What they got was a 4×4 home on wheels that sleeps four but shines as a couple’s escape pod, with 215 square feet of living space in a shell that can withstand tough terrain.
Manual LEGO sorting has always been the barrier to endless building fun. Each piece requires one to look manually, make a decision and then drop into the right pile. Spencer is a software developer / engineer by trade, so he decides to roll up his sleeves and begin designing a machine that could change everything.
Aditya Sripada still gets a kick out of those all-night robot build marathons where time just slips away, and you’re completely fixated on getting that next piece to fall into place. Back in November 2022 he found himself spending every free weekend at Nimble, chipping away at a whole robot for fun, in a bit of a makeshift junkyard space with no lab of his own to call home and a pretty tight budget to boot. At first, it seemed like a simple idea: take the famous robot sidekick from Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar, TARS, and bring him to life using good old fashioned 3D printing.
Valve has always developed gear with a purpose in mind, and the Steam Frame is no exception. This portable VR headset promises to bring the whole Steam library into your living room without a tangle of cords or a PC tethered to your waist. The developers discussed the design in a recent video session with Gamers Nexus, revealing the choices they made to balance power, comfort, and transparency.
Motorcycles have a way of pushing the limits and Honda just showed the crowd why they’re at the forefront. They unveiled the V3R 900 E-Compressor Prototype at EICMA 2025 in Milan, an incredible machine which takes their signature V3 engine and teams it up with an electric compressor. This isn’t some far-fetched fantasy of the future; Honda engineers have been experimenting with the concept since last year’s show, wow everyone with a bare engine before revealing the finished product. If you’re one of those riders who craves quick torque, the kind that gets you going from a standstill, this thing has a lot to be thrilled about.
Black Friday waits for no one, but Amazon clearly couldn’t either. The Meta Quest 3S Cardboard Hero Bundle landed on the site this week for $249.99, down from $299.99 and it’s already selling like hotcakes.
Star-themed coffee tables have long been a staple of design catalogs. But just a few of them have attempted to fit a whole planetary arrangement within, replete with a sun that simply erupts into view on demand. This one goes all out, transforming an ordinary piece of furniture into a small cosmic drama with stellar implosions and endless orbits.
Joby Aviation has just completed a surprisingly quiet revolution in the skies over a California airfield. On November 7, their latest model, a turbine electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft, took off for the first time from their Marina facility. This aircraft has combined the clean lift of electric motors with the constant leg-up of a gas turbine, resulting in longer flights and heavier loads than anyone could have dreamed.
Just over a week ago, film teams arrived in Wellington, New Zealand, and an area of ferns and pine trees in the bush was converted into the lush environment of Hyrule. You can only image the situation as a camera records Bo Bragason, playing Princess Zelda, standing among the trees with two horses close.
