Kawasaki Z125 Pro Monkey Bike
Sure it looks like a green Honda Grom, but there are a few differences other than the color. First off there are two versions, one with automatic (Z125) and one with a four-speed manual transmission (Z125 Pro). Apparently the Z125 Pro version is the one coming to the United States. Yippee. Whether this is a youngsters […]
Tiny Fuel Cell To Keep Drones In The Air For Over An Hour
Imagine having your personal drone in the air for over an hour instead of just 20 minutes. Yep, longer runs, better videos, and more fun. Not to mention the commercial aspect of package delivery and search/rescue missions. Researchers at the Pohang University of Science and Technology (Postech) claim they have created a miniature solid oxide […]
Amazon Tap
Amazon has been super busy. They are launching rockets, flying test delivery drones, delivering packages the same day they are ordered, and continuing to improve on existing products. The latest product improvement comes to the Amazon Echo in the form of a wireless version, the Amazon Tap. The Amazon Tap is basically the same as […]
DJI Phantom 4

Scribble Pen Scans And Draws In Any Color
Sounds almost too good to be true, and from the level of funding they are aren’t receiving that just may be the case. The Scribble Pen is a crowd funded project that just isn’t getting off of the ground. The idea is pretty darn cool though. Video of the Scribble Pen, which can scan colors […]
Japan May Start Recognizing Bitcoin As Actual Money
Bitcoin is getting more interesting by the day as governments switch to negative interest rates, discuss removing large currency bills from circulation, and over-print their FIAT currencies. 2016 is shaping up to be interesting on many levels. Is a recession coming? Are we already in a recession? Are we going to see any currencies collapse? Are we […]
EasyJet To Begin Testing Hybrid Planes
One way the budget airlines are able to offer such low airfare is by cutting costs. T’his means luggage fees, tighter seating, and now hybrid airplanes. How much can a hybrid fleet save a small airline like EasyJet? 35-million per year! This isn’t your typical hybrid though. Don’t expect an Prius styled airplane running on […]
Eagles Being Trained To Take Down Illegal Drones
Remember the Tokyo Drone Hunting Squad? Dumbest idea ever. Well, the Dutch are going to give Japan a run for their money. A new trial is underway using an amazing bird of pray, the eagle, to intercept drones that might be in the way during an emergency. Is this really that big of a problem? […]
Misfit Ray
Another fitness band. But wait, this one is pretty cool. Misfit isn’t new to the game and already makes a great tracker with a pretty good sleep tracking algorithm. For me, sleep tracking is just as important as activity tracking. So what makes the Misfit Ray stand out? A stylish aluminum design that look more […]
Yamaha Takes The Clothes Off The R1 And Calls It The MT-10
The Yamaha R1 is a venerable super bike but doesn’t satisfy the needs of riders who prefer the “naked” bike look. You know, like the BMW S1000R or the Aprilia Tuono. The MT-10 is a thing of beauty and also a bit on the ugly side. Depends on the viewer or the angle I suppose. The 2016 […]
