    You can power Panasonic’s new professional camcorders from a USB-C cable.

    Despite the popularity of shooting on smartphones, today Panasonic announced four new professional camcorders.

    Ranging in price from $1,299.99 to over $2,199.99, according to PetaPixel, the cameras can capture 4K at up to 60fps and can live stream at 1080p over Wi-Fi or ethernet. The most useful upgrade might be a switch to USB-C, providing more options for powering the cameras.

    You can now preorder the snake-like folding projector that debuted at CES.

    The Aurzen Zip — a tiny pocket-friendly projector with a tri-fold design making it easy to aim without a stand — is now available for preorder through Kickstarter. The earliest backers were able to claim one for $199, but its $399 price tag is still discounted for those who preorder. The company expects the projector to ship as early as March 2025.

    The Aurzen Zip projector unfolded on a table while projecting.

    The Zip projector’s tri-fold design allows it to be positioned and aimed without the need for a separate stand. But its brightness is limited to 100 lumens, and battery life maxes out at just 90 minutes with the brightness reduced to 60 lumens.

    Watch this ultra-maneuverable self-balancing bike roll around on big red balls.

    After building a miniature walking Star Wars AT-AT, James Bruton is back with another custom ride-on that reminds us of the Audi RSQ concept car featured in 2004’s I, Robot.

    The Audi rolled around on four spherical wheels, but Bruton’s bike manages to self-balance on just two using five electric motors that transfer power to big red balls through omni-directional wheels.

    Custom handheld emulator cosplays as a Switch with Joy-Con compatibility.

    Hong Kong-based BBoHK has shared a video and images of a handheld emulator they designed with an impressive level of finish.

    It’s built using a combination of 3D-printed parts, a custom PCB, a 2,500mAh battery, and a compact Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5, according to Tom’s Hardware. It can almost be mistaken for a Nintendo Switch thanks to compatibility with actual Joy-Cons.
