There was a time in the '70s when a moped company called Famel was ruling the streets of Portugal. Fun, easy-to-ride 50cc mopeds with zippy five-speed gearboxes were all the rage back then. However, by the '90s, with the influx of European manufacturers entering the fray, Famel soon went bankrupt.

One of the most interesting concepts revealed at this year's Japan Mobility Show was also one of the simplest. It was even buried within a big, bold Toyota Group press conference in which flashier reveals dominated the world's attention. And while it may not be as posh as a rare Rolls-Royce-level ultra-premium brand or as highly coveted as a tiny Land Cruiser, the IMV Origin concept is potentially one of the most versatile vehicles Toyota (or any automaker) has ever built. Stripped down to the absolute barest of minimums, the flatbed truck (if you can even call it a truck) packs up like furniture so it can be built and upfitted on arrival for all kinds of work and lifestyle duties.

Plants have been part of our diet as long as meat has, with new evidence showing that Neanderthals, early Homo sapiens and even earlier Homo hominins were using and processing starches, grass seeds, nuts, fruits, sedges and tubers hundreds of thousands of years before the supposed “Broad Spectrum Revolution" took place.

Battery-driven induction is starting to look like the next wave in cooking, with its superior performance potential and its compatibility with standard home wiring. It’s also got all the general advantages of induction over traditional electric and gas stoves, such as more precision, better efficiency, lower fire-risk, and the avoiding of unhealthy gas seepage.

Although underwater scooters may offer users an aquatic "thrill ride," many of the things don't go much faster than the person could swim on their own. Such is not the case with the Sublue Vapor, however, which tops out at a speed of 10 km/h (6 mph).

Beyond the myriad complications that come with diabetes, patients have to additionally put up with regular blood sugar testing – which involves either multiple pin pricks a day to draw blood or wearing a continuous glucose monitor patch that needs to be replaced every couple of weeks. If you're not good with needles, this can be awful.

Antigravity just dropped the A1 – the world's first "all-in-one 8K 360 drone." Totally sounds like marketing hype until you fly it and realize how revolutionary this drone really is. As Antigravity's Michael Shabun put it, "A1 takes the freedom of 360 capture and gives it wings."

The Yamabiko is small, even by tiny house standards. Yet despite its modest length of 6.6 m (21.6 ft), this clever model somehow manages to squeeze in not just one but two separate layouts, each mirroring the other and sharing a single bathroom.

Inspired by the humble old greenhouse, a futuristic self-contained food ecosystem was recently on display at Expo 2025 Osaka-Kansai in Japan, offering us a glimpse at a how we might one day have "farm to table" on our apartment block rooftops or in small urban spaces. Think of it as a tiny house of produce.

Scientists have sequenced RNA from a nearly 40,000-year-old woolly mammoth leg, the oldest ancient RNA ever recovered. These fragile molecules could reveal which genes were active in the animal’s final hours and what was happening inside the animal’s muscles when it died.

After years of exoskeletons built primarily for medical, workforce and military applications, the recreational sport exoskeleton is really having its marketable moment. The newest take on the technology, the Irmo M1 brings what's billed as a "world first" tweak, a multi-sensor AI system that automatically adjusts output based on the terrain ahead. It's like an adaptive automotive suspension, only for legs instead of wheels.

The business of paying respect to the dead can be an eco-unfriendly matter, whether opting for a wooden coffin that contributes to deforestation, or a cremation service that produces carbon emissions. Instead, Dutch firm Loop Biotech has found a way to save forests and reduce CO2 emissions with the Loop Living Cocoon, the world’s first mushroom-based casket.
