For some urban deliveries, a conventional cargo bike is all that's needed. In cases where a bit more of a vehicle is required, however, the modular-loading pedal-electric ONO may be just the way to go.

Looking to attract more people to the world of ebikes, Dutch outfit VanMoof has refreshed its lineup of electrified two-wheelers to include its first step-through frame, while also bringing some new bells and whistles to the table.

Promising research raises the possibility of treating diabetes without drugs. Across three animal models researchers have demonstrated how bursts of ultrasound targeted at specific clusters of nerves in the liver can lower insulin and glucose levels.

While the recycling of paper is all very well and good, reusing it is even better. A new pollen-based paper was designed with this fact in mind, as text can be printed onto it and then chemically erased multiple times.

Two of our biggest environmental problems are the tons of unusable plastic waste, and the tons of carbon dioxide which are released into the atmosphere in smokestack emissions. A new process is claimed to use the former to trap the latter.

Teledyne FLIR Defense has developed a multi-role laser designator called the StormCaster-DX. The military targeting system can be attached to a quadcopter small and light enough to be carried in a soldier's rucksack.

Following 10 years of construction, OMA's ambitious Taipei Performing Arts Center has now finally been completed. The eye-catching building takes the form of a large cube, with three bulging theaters protruding out from it.

Back in 2014, Seatylock turned a few heads with a folding bike lock that was built into the underside of a saddle. The company's new Foldylock Forever is not seat-integrated, but it is claimed to be the strongest folding lock in the world.

Stents can make a life-saving difference for people with vascular problems, as they open up narrowing blood vessels. An experimental new one goes a step further, by actually transmitting blood flow data to an external computer or mobile device.

Shanghai's TCab Tech has become one of China's leading eVTOL contenders, claiming it's now made many test flights validating its 50-percent scale prototype air taxi design in vertical lift and hover mode, as well as transitions to winged cruise flight.

Powering medical implants can be tricky, but tapping into the body’s own fuel source could keep them going long-term. A new design for a tiny fuel cell converts glucose into electricity to power implants more efficiently than any other so far.

As the number of electronic devices grows, we have to get creative with our energy sources. Cambridge researchers have now demonstrated how an algae energy harvester can use sunlight to power a microprocessor for over a year without any intervention.
