8849 Tank 5 Smartphone Launch
Few devices attempt to blend serious outdoor durability with features that feel borrowed from a living room setup. The 8849 Tank 5 does so without apology. This latest entry in the Tank series arrives as a thick, heavy slab of a phone that carries a built-in 2K DLP projector, a 17,600mAh battery, and flagship-grade internals while meeting strict IP68 and IP69K standards for dust and water resistance.

ART-Glove Robots Touch
Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University built a wearable system that captures both the exact movements of a human hand and the precise locations and forces where it presses against objects. The device, called ART-Glove, or Articulated Tactile Glove, tackles a long-standing gap in robot training. Robots have grown skilled at seeing their surroundings through cameras, yet they still struggle when tasks require careful contact, variable grip force, or coordinated finger adjustments during everyday actions like turning a key or unscrewing a cap.

Anbernic RG 55G1 Retro Handheld
Anbernic designers shaped the RG 55G1 around a 5.5-inch display covered by a single sheet of 2.5D glass. The glass curves at the edges to blend smoothly into the plastic body, creating a more finished look than a flat panel would allow. Anbernic will offer the handheld in Indigo, a vibrant purple tone, Retro Gray with multicolored ABXY buttons, and plain Black. Each version keeps the same layout and materials, so buyers can choose based on style rather than function.

Pepsi Vending Machine Go-Kart
Most people have sat in a go-kart at some point. The seat sits low, the steering feels direct, and the whole thing skitters around with a kind of playful urgency. Very few have ever climbed into one that still carries the shape and branding of a soda machine. A maker known as Mixed Bag set out to close that gap. He bought a used Pepsi vending machine for a hundred dollars on Facebook Marketplace, then spent four months turning it into something that could actually drive.
