While folding electric scooters are now a common sight, most of them still have fully rigid frames that bang over obstacles on the road. The Splach e-scooter is different, though, in that it incorporates front and rear coil-sprung suspension.

We've seen quite a few portable, free-standing hammocks lately, but Pondell's QNUX distinguishes itself in a rather interesting way. The whole thing packs down into a tube-like carrying case, which also serves as part of the hammock.

The Hibear All-Day Adventure Flask keeps your favorite liquids flowing from wake-up to late-night. This all-in-one beverage master's screw-apart design and multi-component system works to fix up coffee, carry water, and shake up a fireside martini.

A persistent scientific mystery over the past century has been exactly how some animals seemingly have the ability to sense the Earth’s magnetic field. A team of researchers are suggesting the magnetic-sensing bacteria could be symbiotically generating this novel sense.

A blood test that reveals the severity of brain injuries in hours through a key biomarker was recently approved for clinical use, but researchers are now setting their sights on a point-of-care solution that can deliver results within 15 minutes.

For the 2020 model year, Toyota totally revamped the Highlander three-row crossover. Significantly, for the hybrid option, the vehicle sheds some cylinders and gains some MPGs as a result.

Scientists in Germany have succeeded in developing the smallest ultrasound detector ever created, which is tinier than a blood cell and opens up new possibilities in what is known as super-resolution imaging.

New research has identified a dramatic change to the nature and purpose of sleep in babies, occurring around the age of two. The discovery suggests sleep initially aides brain building and neurodevelopment before rapidly switching to a reparative role.

Skidmore, Owings & Merrill has previously designed some big buildings, including the world's tallest, but now it's creating a massive waterfront neighborhood with a supertall skyscraper inspired by the Fresnel Lens of a lighthouse at its heart.

Coral bleaching occurs when corals are stressed by high water temperatures and other factors, causing them to expel the symbiotic algae living within them. Given that fact, scientists are now looking into saving reefs by pumping up cool water from the ocean's depths.

For three decades, the Ig Nobel Awards have celebrated the lighter side of science by highlighting research achievements that “first make people laugh then make them think.” And there’s no shortage of amusing projects amid the 2020 crop.
