Tesla unveils 'Cybercab' robotaxi | Tesla boss Elon Musk has finally taken the wraps off a robotaxi that he says you'll be able to own and also send out for ridesharing trips, enabling you to recoup the cost | Elon Musk performed the unveiling at a special event at the Warner Bros Studios in Burbank, California, on Thursday after being driven to the stage by the autonomous robotaxi. The Cybercab sports a futuristic look and comes with so-called "butterfly doors" that open upwards.

Motorola might be making a foldable unlike any we’ve seen before
| The company recently filed a patent for a new type of folding phone, and it's something we've not seen before
| Motorola’s patent features a phone that can automatically adjust its hinge position to help keep the user in the center of the frame during something like a video call. It’s similar to Apple's Center Stage feature, except that Motorola's idea is based on hardware, not software. The patent, spotted by 91Mobiles, shows a series of small motors controlling the hinge of the phone, tracking the user’s movements and shifting accordingly to offer the best viewing angle. So if, say, you’re taking a meeting at your desk during the workday, the phone can tilt up or down if you change your position, ensuring that you can still see the screen and that the other attendees can still see you ... | |

Apple releases immersive Submerged movie for Vision Pro | The 17-minute film features a lot of water and a lot of panic, so don't even think about watching it in the bath
| Apple has just debuted the first scripted film captured in Apple Immersive Video and made especially for the Vision Pro headset, Digital Trends reported.

Downsides, however, include the machine’s plastic build, and a keyboard that “isn’t the best.” But despite these shortcomings, it’s considered a decent option for gaming on a budget ... | |
