If you have recently turned on your PS5, chances are good that you have seen an enormous update for Gran Turismo 7, now at version 1.67, released on January 29, 2026. Along the way, Polyphony Digital snuck in three new vehicles, a plethora of new events, and one of the most surprising inclusions: the Xiaomi SU7 Ultra. Yes, for the first time in more than three decades, a vehicle made entirely in China will be featured in the popular racing game series.
Matty Benedetto of Unnecessary Inventions has created a smart coffee table that can transform everyday items into switches for lighting, music, and warmth. The surface has a large grid of colorful dots in red, blue, yellow, and green, laid out similarly to the old classic Twister mat you used to play with as a child. There is a tiny NFC tag stuck under each of these dots behind an acrylic disc, and whatever you place on that point, the tag will trigger the action linked with that area.
This single circuit board represents the first fiberglass version of the Apple-1, which Jobs and Wozniak assembled in the spring of 1976, before moving the first customer versions out of the garage. Jobs and Wozniak wanted to show their improved design worked correctly on fiberglass, since an earlier, cheaper version made from a low-cost composite had shown serious flaws.
The Rogbid Fusion arrives as a no-frills answer to a very real wearable tech problem: why choose between a smartwatch and a smart ring when you can have both? Rogbid designed this wearable around a compact metal core that measures only 20.6 x 21 by 8.2 millimeters and weighs about 14 grams, a sizable amount of technology in a very small package.
Saudi Arabia’s Six Flags Qiddiya City officially opened its doors at the end of 2025, and one of its rides piqued everyone’s interest, which is not surprising given that Falcons Flight is now the world’s tallest, fastest, and longest roller coaster.
On takeoff, the Cavorite X7’s wings slide open to reveal 12 electric fans hidden inside. Five on each main wing and one in each forward canard accomplish the job, and they are all battery-powered. This allows the eVTOL to take flight straight from a small pad or helipad. Once airborne and moving forward, the panels close over the fans, forming a lovely, smooth seal. A rear gas-powered propeller then takes over, and the wings lift in the traditional airplane manner.
Govee’s TV Backlight 3 Lite, priced at $64 (was $90), system has a neat trick: it attaches LED strips to the back of a 55 to 65-inch television and then places a small camera on top to monitor the screen in real time. Whatever is on television, a movie, a game, or a favorite show, the colors flood out onto the wall behind in real time, creating a larger picture that extends beyond the screen and is much easier on the eyes in a dark room.
NASA’s Curiosity rover has been trudging about in the Martian sand for over a decade now, transmitting an endless flood of information in the bright Martian sunlight. However, on December 6, 2025, or Sol 4740 of its mission, a significant event in Curiosity’s long mission history took place when engineers used its lights to take a series of photos.

Samsung’s Galaxy S26 and S26+ appear in leaks just a few weeks before its official reveal, complete with what appear to be final official product photos and nearly every little detail from spec to spec.

The DS Pico cartridge simply slots into a Nintendo DS slot like any other, but that’s where the similarities end. It’s a flashcart that quietly reimagines what these devices can achieve. Built over four years by the LNH Team, it all began with the Raspberry Pi RP2040 microcontroller, which set the project on a very specific course.
