Paris in June hums with innovation during Vivatech 2025, and this year, a peculiar vehicle steals the spotlight. AEMotion’s Dual, a four-wheeled micro EV, zips through the city’s narrow streets, tilting like a motorcycle yet promising the safety of a car. This prototype has been a decade in the making, and designed to turn heads.
Tesla’s Optimus, and other humanoid robots, may soon be able to feel, literally. How so? A newly developed robotic skin capable of mimicking human touch. This marks a sensory leap forward, as in a single-material marvel that detects pressure, shear, and temperature in one seamless package.
The 27″ Sony INZONE M10S OLED gaming monitor is designed for both professional as well as casual gamers alike, and you can get one for $714 shipped, originally $1,099.99. A 1440p OLED panel running at a blistering 480Hz refresh rate anchors the M10S, and its 0.03ms gray-to-gray response time means pixel transitions are near-instantaneous. Product page.

A Tesla Model Y hums along under the control of Full Self-Driving (FSD) software on an Austin street, where a school bus sits parked, its red lights flashing, stop signs extended like a warning hand.
