​When studying wild animals, having a 3D model of the creature would certainly help. That's why a University of Massachusetts Amherst team led by biologist Duncan J. Irschick created the portable, 3D-scanning Beastcam.

The connected car was a theme we saw again and again at this year's CES. Toyota is currently exploring satellite technology that could be the key to the smart cars of the future. Its Mirai fuel cell car is now more high-tech than ever.

Insurers and health care providers are increasingly relying on fitness tracking data to offer incentives, reduced premiums and keep tabs on clients behaviour, so one team researchers is developing an activity tracking smartphone app to detect when the user is cheating.

A team of researchers from the University of Michigan has developed a new technique to aid bone repair, using polymer nano-shells to deliver microRNA molecules. The method could one day have a big impact on regenerative medicine, directing cells already present at injury sites to aid healing.

​There's a challenge when you're developing lie-detection software – you can get people to lie in a lab setting, but their behaviour won't be the same as it would be in a real-world scenario. That's why scientists have turned to videos of courtroom testimonies.​

Colorado-based F9 Productions recently created Atlas: a solar-powered, rainwater-collecting tiny house retreat that boasts generous glazing and a strong connection with the outside.

Yet another major barnfind has come to light with the discovery of eight Brough Superiors in a Cornish village. Mostly in parts, the bikes will be offered by Bonhams on 24 April 2016 and will be certain to create global interest given the recent prices achieved by basketcases.

It was three years ago that we first heard about the PumpTire – it was a prototype bicycle tire that used wheel motion to keep itself inflated. Well, its designer has now come up what sounds like a better alternative: the PumpTube.

Life loves to present us with incredible and/or unexpected situations, but unless someone has a camera actively recording, those moments lose the potential for widespread sharing. Mofily is taking aim at people looking to capture just such events, with its pocket-sized YoCam.

A team of researchers from the Bristol BioEnergy Centre at the University of the West of England (UWE Bristol) have developed a pair of socks that use urine to generate electricity and power a wireless transmitter.
