This staggering footage from cinematographer Phil Holland shows New York City from above in ridiculously sharp 12K image capture. That means every frame is a 100-megapixel photo. And filming something like this is no trivial matter.

Most batteries have a cathode on one side and an anode on the other, with a separator between them. Engineers at Cornell University have developed an unusual new structure that intertwines the components together in a swirling shape, which they say lets the device recharge in a matter of seconds.

Hydrogels could make for robots that are more flexible, safer to be around and simpler to build and use. Now researchers at Rutgers University have developed a smart gel that can be 3D printed into a variety of shapes, and electrically-activated to make it “walk” underwater, grab and move objects.

Standard Studio was commissioned to turn an old office building into student housing consisting of 218 self-contained apartments. With little available floorspace to work with, the firm drew design inspiration from the space-saving designs pioneered by the tiny house movement.

Way back at CES 2017, Nvidia announced that its G-Sync technology was about to make its way to UHD HDR gaming monitors. A few months later Acer revealed the Predator X27, but availability and pricing was unknown. Now we know it will be landing next month, and that will retail at just under $2,000.

A big challenge humanity faces in venturing off Earth and into deep space is how to tackle the dangers of cosmic radiation.​ A team has now discovered a drug treatment that could not only prevent cognitive deficits caused by this radiation, but actually repair damage in the brain after exposure.

Dyson says its Cyclone V10 cordless vacuum cleaner is so good that it's no longer producing machines that need to be plugged into the wall. So is it really time to toss out your conventional vacuum cleaner?

Disrupted sleep due to a snoring partner has inspired a number of noise-canceling earbuds designed to enable a better night's sleep. The latest solution to cross our desk is QuietOn Sleep, a set of snoring-oriented earbuds designed by ex-Nokia engineers.

The brain may be an incredible organ, but it struggles to repair itself after sustaining damage from a stroke. Now, researchers from UCLA have developed an injectable hydrogel that can coax healthy tissue to patch up damage by helping regenerate new brain tissue, nerve fibers and blood vessels.

The field of optogenetics is all about using light to stimulate cells in the body. Now, researchers from Flinders University have used the technique to shine a light where the Sun don’t shine, stimulating nerves in the gut to relieve chronic constipation.

British company Equipmake, best known for designing Formula 1 KERS systems for Williams, has turned its hand to electric motors and blasted out of the gate with a spoked motor design it claims is lighter, more powerful, easier to cool and cheaper to manufacture than standard electric motors.

​In 2015, a clever invention by two Australian beekeepers turned into a record-breaking crowdfunding campaign. The idea was a beehive with a tap system that can siphon honey without opening the lid and disturbing the bees. The duo has now launched the Flow Hive 2, a new and improved design.
