Tesla will unveil a robotaxi today. Here's how to watch

 

Tesla is holding a special event in California today that’s widely expected to focus on its highly anticipated robotaxi, dubbed the 'Cybercab'

 

Many are hoping to see Tesla CEO Elon Musk take the wraps off a prototype of the long-awaited robotaxi, but some recent reports have suggested that we might only see renders.

The so-called "Cybercab" is expected to be a fully autonomous vehicle that, according to Musk’s previous comments, will do away with the steering wheel and pedals. According to Bloomberg, the driverless robotaxi will have two front seats and two doors that open upward like “butterfly wings.”

The event starts at 7 p.m. PT on Thursday, October 10, and will be live-streamed on Tesla’s X account ...

Garmin may have cool new smartwatch screen tech to show off

 

It looks like an exciting development in the smartwatch space

 

Garmin is being linked with the impending release of a Fenix 8 smartwatch equipped with a MicroLED display, which would be an industry first, Digital Trends reported.

Born of a partnership between Garmin and tech firm Vuzix to develop next-generation nano-imprinted waveguide with MicroLED based displays, documentation has reportedly been uncovered that references a “Fenix 8 MicroLED” model, along with the current Fenix 8 AMOLED models.

MicroLED screens are ideal for smartwatches as they use little power while still providing plenty of contrast, brightness, and dynamic range. Garmin already excels at maximizing the energy efficiency of its batteries ...

Horror fans set to propel this slasher to the top of the weekend box office chart

 

New horror flick Terrifier 3 is vying for the top spot

 

It’s hard to say which movie will win the box office in North America this weekend, but Box Office Pro says newcomer Terrifier 3 is a strong contender with predicted earnings of between $12 million and $18 million.

Damien Leone’s slasher, starring Lauren LaVera as Sienna Shaw, runs with the logline: “Art the Clown is set to unleash chaos on the unsuspecting residents of Miles County as they peacefully drift off to sleep on Christmas Eve."

In second spot we could see Joker: Folie à Deux, which got off to a poor start last weekend, while third spot is a toss-up between animation The Wild Robot and newcomer Saturday Night ...

Nintendo just launched ... an alarm clock?!?

 

The Japanese gaming giant continues to spring surprises

 

Nintendo has created an alarm clock that can track your sleep and even tell when you're still in bed, Digital Trends reported.

The Nintendo Sound Clock: Alarmo will cost $100 when it widely releases in early 2025, although Nintendo Switch Online members in the U.S. and Canada can preorder it now.

The on-brand Alarmo is round and bright red with a big white button that evokes characters like Mario. A motion sensor monitors whether you're still in bed, so instead of hitting the snooze button to quiet the noise, it'll only stop once you get out of bed (though thankfully there's also a classic mode that lets you hit a button to shut it up) ...
