If you’ve never heard of a Roomba, it’s basically an autonomous robotic vacuum cleaner that utilizes a set of sensors to navigate the floor area of a home and clean it. These sensors can detect the presence of obstacles, dirty spots on the floor, and even steep drops to keep it from falling down stairs. The one downfall is that it can’t actually climb up stairs on its own, that is unless…you’re talking about engineer Peter Sripol’s latest creation.

There have been no shortages of Tesla Cybertruck knockoffs and parodies these past few weeks, but this one, spotted in Khimki, which is 30 km northwest of the center of Moscow, just might take the cake.

We’ve seen the Cyberphone, the LEGO Cybertruck, and then CyberNUC’s PC case, but now, one pickup owner decided to troll Tesla by creating their own Cybertruck knockoff using duct tape and painted cardboard. What makes this so special is that the sighting occurred directly in front of a Tesla showroom. Just a week after launching the vehicle, Tesla reported to have received over 250,000 pre-orders for the Cybertruck, with 42% choosing the Dual Motor, 41% selecting the Tri Motor, and the other 17% opting for the Single Motor.Read more for the full image.

When 15-year-old Madelynn Sumpter broke the rules by sneaking in boys at a sleepover party, her parents, Tawnya Ford and Larry Sumpter, gave her a choice of handing over her phone for a month, or giving them access to her social media for two weeks.

Drones are already changing the commerce as well as food delivery industries, and soon, we could be seeing them in the world of luxury. How so?

You’d think a police robot would always be ready to help those in need, but that wasn’t the case when Cogo Guebara tried to summon one’s help. She rushed over to press its emergency alert button after seeing a brawl break out nearby in Salt Lake Park, Los Angeles, but rather than alert actual police offers, HP RoboCop loudly said “Step out of the way,” and then continued to roll away playing an ‘intergalactic tune’, while pausing periodically to say ‘Please keep the park clean.’ Read more for two videos and additional information.

We know that the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max feature textured back glass that provide an elegant look that is also tough, slip resistant, and feels good in the hand, but what about cleaning the triple rear camera system?
