Engineers at the University of Toronto have combined perovskite and quantum dots to create an ultra-efficient, super-luminescent hybrid crystal that they say will create new records in power-to-light conversion efficiencies.

From smartwatches to dedicated fitness bands, it's easy to get lost in the sheer volume of fitness tracking choices. Moov Now, the successor to last year's first generation Moov tracker, aims to set itself apart by offering a more personal, hands-on experience.

The Stary electric skateboard isn't the first we've seen that features hub motors, but it is the latest to lay claim to weighing less than the others, an important characteristic when we're talking about last-mile transport.

If you're an audiophile and fancy something a little out of the ordinary from your smartphone, then Marshall might have the device for you. It's certainly not the most high-end handset we've seen, but it offers a host of features directed at music lovers and musicians.

The ultra-small Photofast i-FlashDrive Max USB 3.0 combines USB 3.0 and Lightning connectors for fast data transferring between Mac, iOS, Windows, and Linux systems.

On June 28, SpaceX suffered a major setback when its unmanned CRS-7 mission exploded shortly after liftoff. SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk has laid out the preliminary findings of the post-flight investigation which indicate the cause may have been a faulty strut.

In order to monitor their blood glucose levels, diabetics typically have to perform painful and inconvenient finger-prick blood tests. An alternative may be on the way, however, in the form of a device that simply shines a laser on the user's finger.

South Korea's Wifo Corporation is currently crowdfunding the RemoFinger, a foot controller that sits on the floor and can wirelessly activate onscreen stomp switches via surrogate "finger tips" attached to the tablet display.

Most LED bulbs offering wireless connectivity look and perform similarly, but consumer experience still varies as it generally comes down to the execution of the companion app. We lit up the LED bulbs in MiPow’s Playbulb Studio to see how well they shine.

It may be in Facebook's shadow, but Twitter is no social media slouch. There are many things that the platform does better than the rest, such as breaking news, celebrity interaction, and so on. To help you boost your own Twitter skills we've collected the best tips and tricks you need to know.

An exotic particle dubbed the "Weyl fermion", has been discovered 85 years after its existence was first mooted. Able to create completely massless electrons, the use of this particle may result in super-fast electronics and significant inroads into new areas of quantum computing.

Researchers at Tufts University have now developed silk-based inks containing bacteria-sensing agents that can withstand the rigors of inkjet printing, opening the door much wider for printing biomolecules.
