Normally it’s not the camera that makes a good photograph, but the photographer. But the Nadia digital camera, created by Andrew Kupresanin, could turn anyone into an Ansel Adams.

Sony is working on a new type of blue-violet ultra-fast pulsed laser for optical disks, one that would be used for a new format of super-high-capacity discs. The only problem? We probably won’t be using disks anymore when they get around to releasing it.
It’s becoming pretty obvious that streaming and downloading are where media [...]

Oriol Guimera and Joan Cinca of Barcelona-based design firm, Guimeraicinca, joined forces to create this “armored” moped.
While the moped is parked, the solar panels charge and protect; when you’re ready to head out on the town, just roll back the retractable shell and go. The SunRed may not be the zippiest vehicle on the [...]
