Dental Floss Finally Got the Premium EDC Upgrade It Always Deserved.Everyday carry culture has done something interesting to the way we think about the small objects in our pockets. Lighters, pens, and multi-tools have long been redesigned with premium materials, tighter tolerances, and better finishes. Oral care, however, hasn’t really gotten the same treatment. Most dental accessories are still disposable, plastic, and designed to be forgotten the moment they’ve served their purpose.That’s what makes TiFloss from TIKZER feel like a time...

A new kind of nuclear-based power production, now being tested in space for the first time, could pave the way for long-term electricity generation on the moon’s surface—and therefore, human habitation. These nuclear “batteries” could survive the long, bitterly cold lunar nights with ease.On July 7, a 1U CubeSat, just 10 centimeters (about 4 inches) on a side, was rocketed into space aboard SpaceX’s Transporter 17 mission. The satellite, named BOHR, for Betavoltaic Orbital High-Reliability, was developed by Florida-based City Labs, a co...

The market for artificial intelligence application-specific integrated circuits (AI ASICs) is expected to expand rapidly over the next several years as major technology companies increasingly develop and deploy their own custom AI chips.According to Counterpoint’s Cloud AI Service forecast, annual AI ASIC shipments are projected to rise from approximately 4.07 million units in 2025 to 18.06 million units by 2029, representing more than a fourfold increase over the period.Google Leads the AI ASIC MarketGoogle is expected to remain the larges...

Seoul-based industrial designer Jisu Yoon introduces Re-flat pack sofa, a furniture system that explores the possibility of repeatedly folding and unfolding a sofa through the use of shape-memory materials. The design replaces conventional foam upholstery with nitinol, a nickel-titanium alloy typically used in medical stents and aerospace mechanisms, allowing the material to function simultaneously as the structure and cushioning system.The project begins from a limitation of traditional flat-pack furniture: while existing systems simplify t...
