Google is prepping a fitness band to beat the screen-less rage that is Whoop

Just as Apple Watch has the consumer fitness market firmly in its grasp, Whoop has the athletic fitness market cornered. Google wants a piece of that pie, and the company has been quietly cooking up a screen-less Fitbit fitness band to challenge Whoop’s stronghold. NBA star Steph Curry teased the device on social media this week, saying it will unlock a “new relationship with your health.” According to Bloomberg, Google confirmed that Curry has been “working with the team to cook up something special,” with more details coming soon.

Next-gen AR tech turns any surface into a touchscreen without any specialized gear

Typing on a virtual keyboard floating in mid-air sounds cool until your arms give out. That’s the reality of many AR (augmented reality) and MR (mixed reality ) headsets today. You’re either fumbling with handheld controllers or holding your hands up for too long, causing fatigue.  Researchers at Tohoku University think they’ve found a better way. The team has developed a system that turns any regular flat surface into a touch input area for AR and MR headsets. No extra sensors. No special markers. Nothing to set up. How does it work? When you press a fingertip against a hard…

Razer has always been a gaming company at heart, so when it quietly steps into the productivity segment and launches its first-ever split ergonomic keyboard, we’re going to talk about it. Introducing the Razer Pro Type Ergo, and yes, it comes with a dedicated AI button (similar to the recent Windows Copilot PCs).  How is the Pro Type Ergo different? At its core, the Razer Pro Type Ergo is a wireless split keyboard built for people who type for a living (like me) and whose wrists have paid the price. The layout physically divides the traditional QWERTY arrangement into two…

This device looks like a smartwatch, but it measures something far more sinister

Most wearables promise the usual things: heart rate, sleep tracking, maybe a stress score you did not ask for. This one is after something far more unsettling. Researchers at the University of Tartu’s Institute of Computer Science are working on a smartwatch-like device that could help detect micro- and nanoplastic particles in the human body. The work was published in the Proceedings of the 27th International Workshop on Mobile Computing Systems and Applications. The concept is striking as it takes a form factor people often associate with wellness and turns it into a tool for measuring one of the more…

What’s on the menu for NASA’s Artemis II moon astronauts?

NASA’s Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, and Christina Koch, together with the Canadian Space Agency’s Jeremy Hansen, are less than 24 hours away from flying to the moon. The Artemis II mission is on target to blast off from the Kennedy Space Center on Wednesday, April 1. Once NASA’s powerful SLS rocket has lifted the crew to space, they’ll spend about a day in Earth orbit checking the Orion spacecraft’s systems before changing trajectory and heading for the moon. The mission doesn’t involve a lunar touchdown. Instead, the astronauts will fly around the moon before heading back home in a voyage…

Apple finally teaches Siri to handle more than one thing

Apple is reportedly giving Siri something users have been asking for since… well, forever: the ability to handle multiple commands in one go. Yes, in iOS 27, you may finally be able to say, “Set a reminder, text my friend, and check the weather,” without Siri mentally collapsing after the first task, according to Mark Gurman of Bloomberg. Revolutionary? Not quite. Necessary? Absolutely. The “Wait, It Couldn’t Already Do That?” Moment Let’s address the obvious: most modern AI assistants – and even some that weren’t particularly “smart” – have been able to handle multi-step commands for years. Meanwhile, Siri has…
