This remarkably vivid home projector has deep inky blacks, without a five-figure price tag. Premium home theater projectors often come at premium prices, usually north of $10,000. The Xgimi Titan Noir Max is different. It's priced at $5,999, well under five figures, but it supports IMAX Enhanced mode and has outstanding picture quality, a 10,000:1 native contrast ratio, 7,000 lumens brightness, and a unique dual intelligent iris system that makes on-the-fly adjustments. Even though Xgimi has been around for more than a decade and is known for affordable home cinema models, the company ran a Kickstarter campaign for the high-end Titan Noir Max home theater projector and raised $19 million.

Children under 16 will be banned from buying high-caffeine energy drinks in England from April, the government has said. Drinks containing more than 150mg of caffeine per litre will be illegal to sell to children and younger teenagers in shops, restaurants, cafes, vending machines and online. Lower-caffeine soft drinks, such Diet Coke, are not affected and neither are tea and coffee. However, drinks including Red Bull, Monster, Relentless and Prime would all breach the limit. The new rules aim to reduce obesity levels in children and prevent issues such as disrupted sleep, increased anxiety and lack of concentration, as well as poor school results.

Hospital staff swapped two babies at birth who were then raised by unsuspecting families... until DNA test 36 years on exposed the scandal, lawsuit alleges Warning to millions as lung-penetrating toxins sweep across 14 US states... with Detroit's air ranked the worst on Earth The detail everyone missed in this photo of Kate and William... and what it reveals about state of their relationship. Scientists at Northwestern University have designed a drone that spins so fast it disappears before your eyes. Called the'Phantom Twist', the drone spins up to 25 times every second, which is too fast for the human eye to see. While it isn't completely invisible, the drone is about 10 times less visible than a conventional quadcopter. Its developers describe its appearance as a'ghostly smudge', claiming it blends'seamlessly into the background'.

Using archaeological evidence, historical records and cutting-edge 3D technology, experts have created the first scientifically accurate reconstruction of Nassau during the Golden Age of Piracy. The digital model strips away centuries of Hollywood myth to reveal what the notorious pirate stronghold actually looked like in the early 1700s. Far from a bustling colonial city lined with grand stone buildings, Nassau was little more than a ramshackle settlement of wooden huts, pirate camps and crumbling ruins. The reconstruction also revives some of history's most infamous buccaneers, including Blackbeard, Anne Bonny, Calico Jack Rackham and Benjamin Hornigold, using AI based on historical engravings and contemporary descriptions. The recreations will feature in the finale of Wreckwatch TV's series about the real pirates of the Caribbean, Mystery of the Pirate King's Treasure.

A new study has warned that Saharan dust has driven up pollution in the UK by 50 per cent over the last decade. Scientists from the Paul Scherrer Institute used AI to analyse the desert dust in the air over Europe. The results showed that dust concentrations have increased consistently across much of the continent between 2012 and 2021. Here in the UK, concentrations increased by at least 50 per cent over this time period. This dust travels to the UK all the way from the Sahara, and can have wide-reaching consequences.

I'm sick of "opt-out" toggles for automatically enabled generative AI features. It's past time to make "opt in" the default setting for sensitive features. In early July, Meta rolled out a new feature where anyone using its AI app could tag public Instagram accounts and generate images using their likenesses. Meta's decision to turn the feature on by default, so that Instagram users had to actively opt out, was controversial. Multiple Instagram creators posted viral videos explaining how to opt out and expressed frustration.
