Sure, you can have it as a toy, but the U-boat Worx C-Researcher 3 is not just made for fun, but primarily for serious work. For scientific research, to be precise. And thanks to the many tools he owns, he can collect samples and organisms, analyze the seabed and water, and draw underwater maps. In addition to the helmsman, it can carry two more passengers and dive to a depth of 1,700 meters, where previously only documentaries on programs such as National Geographic took us.

Sometimes I walk around the keyboard, sometimes in nature. One time I twist the heels, the other time the kitchen. I press the trigger once, the pedals a second time. And one time I play the role of a moviegoer, another time a nanny. Life offers such a wide range of things that it would be pointless to dip your brush in just a color or two, right?
Every year we get a series of new and unusual trends that attract a lot of attention. With some they reap great enthusiasm, while others can't wait to go to the dustbin of history and sink into oblivion. The 1990s were a champion when it comes to this. Crocs, square diamond earrings, necklaces made of gathered shells and snails, bleached hair,... Here are fashion trends that should never happen.
On the market, electric bicycles are growing like mushrooms after the rain, so their price is steadily falling, and their popularity is increasing. But in order to be able to talk about the "e-epidemic" of e-bikes, the price - in addition to weight, the main minus of such bikes - will have to drop a bit. Even before that, customers have a great alternative - ONwheel. A device that turns a regular bike into an e-bike in seconds. The battery and 800-watt brushless electric motor weigh just over 800 grams, which makes ONwheel kill two birds with one stone - weight and price.
In the Danish capital, Copenhagen, in the Christiansbro district, a newly built bridge for pedestrians and cyclists Cirkelbroen, or the so-called circular bridge, was recently opened, under which the famous Icelandic architect Olafur Eliasson signed. It is reminiscent of ships, as each of the five circular platforms has its own mast, which is a metaphor for river traffic, which here is almost as dense as bicycle traffic.
Artist James Champan, a master of cute illustrations that show how words and emotions sound in different languages, will publish an illustrated guide to international onomatopoeia on the subject, ``How To Sneeze in Japanese''. The book will try to follow in the footsteps of the success of his debut album, Soundimals, and Champan raised the start-up funds for it through a Kickstarter campaign. Ka-ching!
More and more people are deciding to eliminate food of animal origin from their menu and switch to veganism. By definition, veganism is not only a way of eating but a way of life, so vegans also do not buy leather and fur products, in short, anything that involves the killing/exploitation of animals to satisfy human hunger and vanity. Despite the fact that the "movement" has more and more followers, there is still a general belief that these are people who are intolerant of meat-eaters and label them with insults and harsh words such as murderers. But the truth is far from that. Let's see what the stereotypes are about vegans and what vegans actually are.
The basic task of the eyebrows is to protect the eyes from sweat. But now that the fashion trend from the nineties is back - thin lines or "notches" in the eyebrows - they will do it a little harder. But we humans, especially girls, are ready to do a lot for beauty. A good example - shoes with a high heel. And while the stripes have resurfaced, they've never really gone away in hip-hop culture.
Just when we thought that flip phones had finally gone to the eternal hunting grounds, both LG and Samsung announced its return. If the move doesn't seem logical, it seems all the more so as the flip phone of industrial designer Allan Ospina, who redefines this type of technological toys in a new way, i.e. according to Sony. Namely, they created the Lunark Phone smartphone with two screens and a special hinge that connects them into one.
Photoshop has become synonymous with beautifying photos that were incomplete without its intervention. In some cases, this is acceptable if magazines and online media get the consent of the person in the photo. But recently, a Facebook group called Project Harpoon (which has since been shut down) appeared online and drew a ton of criticism for posting photos of "plus-size" women who had become thin with the help of Photoshop. Despite the controversy, the #ThinnerBeauty movement lives on, and websites and subpages have grown on the FB site that continues its mission.
The two biggest problems during video calls are lighting and field of view. The light may be ideal, but it doesn't help you if all you can see is your friend's chin. Because these small problems, which are so typical of video communication, got on the nerves of the team from the Swedish company Frankly, they created the ViW attachment. ViW boasts a dual lens and provides a 50% wider field of view than conventional webcams. It does this without distorting or "distorting" the image in any way.
And you thought keyboards couldn't look sexy?! The company LG Electronics, which, among other things, manufactures excellent peripheral units for computers, has produced a foldable portable keyboard compatible with various operating systems (Android, iOS, Windows Phone), which is exactly that. Folding mobile keyboards are nothing new, but the LG Rolly Keyboard is a different story altogether. Although it is made of silicone, it does not look "artificial" and although it offers a whole set of keys with a relatively high structure, it measures only 25 centimeters.
The duo The Chemical Brothers have never left us indifferent with their videos, and it's no different with their latest product for the track "Sometimes I feel So Deserted". It is the second single from the album "Born In The Echoes" after the video for the song "Go", where they were joined by Q-Tip. The apocalyptic video, which is a mixture of The Walking Dead and Mad Max, was directed by Ninian Dogg, who is responsible for many videos of the music group Kasabian.
