​If you want to own "the world's lightest folding bike" right now, you're likely to end up choosing between the Allen Sports Ultra X or Bike Friday's Pocket Rocket. If a new Kickstarter campaign is successful, however, that will soon change. The Hummingbird is claimed to weigh just 6.5 kg (14 lb).​

Researchers with Florida-based Orlando Health recently determined that HeartBuds – a new stethoscope device/app – performed as well as traditional stethoscopes, and better than a commonly-used disposable model.

Astronomers have used the NASA Chandra X-ray telescope to observe a complex three-star system that forms part of the "belt" of the Orion constellation. The new data tells us a lot about a system located in one of the best-known constellations in the night sky.

he Guitar Triller offers players a different way to attack a stringed instrument. It can help bring a hammered dulcimer vibe to a bass guitar, give shredders some new ways to speed-pick or add some expressive tap and scrape power play to ukes.

Trunki's ride-on suitcases are a great way to make airports more bearable for kids, but why should they get to have all the fun? The company's new carry-on sized Jurni does the same for grown-ups. You can sit on it to rest, ride on it when queueing and pull it along like a conventional wheeled case.

A prototype nebulizer developed at RMIT can deliver high doses more efficiently than inhalers, and it could be used instead of needles for new drug treatments such as DNA vaccines and stem cell therapy. The nebulizer could also replace inhalers for many asthma and lung cancer patients.

The Row-Bot, is a water-cleaning robot prototype that sucks in dirty water, "eats" the microbes it scoops up in its mouth, then breaks them down in its artificial stomach to create energy to power itself. In this way, it generates enough power to continuously impel itself about.

​Engineers have used nanotechnology to model a new membrane that can filter salt from seawater at higher volumes than ever before. The membrane, made from molybdenum disulfide, “pulls” clean molecules water through itself. Potentially, this could make desalination plants much more energy-efficient.

Using a soup of molecules that replicates the primordial goo found at the beginnings of life on Earth billions of years ago, scientists have created a coating that may significantly improve the body's acceptance of medical implants.

University of New South Wales scientists have for the first time created two entangled qubits in silicon with record fidelity, paving the way for reliable, massively scalable quantum computers.

We were recently sent a pre-production review unit of Master & Dynamic's latest MW60 Wireless Over Ear Headphones. Inside of a high-quality aluminum travel case from Zero Halliburton, no less.

A team of surgeons at New York University's (NYU) Langone Medical Center have performed the most complex and complete face transplant so far, by replacing every single feature of a firefighter's face
