We might be a ways off having buildings pop up at the push of a button, but on construction sites around the world flying robots are already carrying out surveying tasks more efficiently than we can. And experts say that when it comes to automating construction, that's not all they have to offer.

The company behind the one-off Ferrari P4/5 by Pininfarina has unveiled its latest creation. Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus (SCG) has developed road and race versions of the new SCG003. SCG says it has downforce and engine torque that are "unknown in the supercar world."

If autonomous delivery drones are ever going to see widespread use, then they can't simply fly around with no regard for other aircraft. That's why researchers from RMIT University have developed a system that lets drones communicate with air traffic controllers using a synthesized voice.

Scientists have developed an approach that could lead to a muscle-targeted injection therapy that enables people to take a shot in the arm or leg, go about their daily tasks or engage in mild exercise and lose more weight than they would otherwise.

If you wanted to design a shelter that's stripped down to the absolute minimum, you could do worse than the Nomadic Shelter, a modular shelter that sleeps up to 12 people. It's currently installed on the Norwegian island of Sandhornøy, in the Arctic Circle.

Samsung and Motorola made two of the most eye-catching smartwatches you can buy today. We have the Moto 360 and Samsung Gear S in house, and have a few thoughts on how they compare.

Paddling lakes, bays and rivers by kayak is a rewarding experience, but it can also be quite tiring. That's why Klepper offers paddlers the benefit of a solar-powered electric drive in its E-Kayak.

Harnessing wave power can be a tricky business. It's one thing to build a device that simply moves up and down with the waves, but another to build one that's efficient enough to be cost-effective. Swedish company CorPower Ocean claims to have done just that, however.

Even the most dedicated bicycle commuter could be forgiven for taking a look at the weather outside every now and then, and deciding to drive the car to work instead. LeafxPro aims to cater for such occasions with what's most easily described as an umbrella for your bike.

Scientists now have a new source of inspiration in the form of limpet teeth, which are made of a material researchers say is potentially stronger than spider silk, is comparable in strength to the strongest commercial carbon fibers, and could one day be copied for use in cars, boats and planes.

Planning Korea has unveiled a proposal dubbed L’air Nouveau de Paris (New Paris air). The concept features futuristic egg-shaped towers that take up an area of 3,891 sq m (almost 42,000 sq ft) in the city's 17th Arrondissement.

Back in 2013, two NASA probes were in the perfect position to observe a solar wave as it hit Earth’s magnetic field, gathering data on the event. That data has now been analyzed by teams of scientists, revealing the process by which high-speed particles are generated in Earth’s radiation belts.
