Midea's New Oven Heats to 350°C in Seconds Using Graphene Tech

Berlin – September 07, 2026 -- Midea unveiled its SpaceMaster built-in oven series at IFA 2026 in Berlin, previewing a graphene-powered appliance set for a global market launch in 2027.

Graphene tech cuts heat response to 0.2 seconds

The oven's core feature is Midea's Graphene Turbo hot-air technology, which uses graphene's high thermal conductivity to achieve a heat reaction in just 0.2 seconds. The company says this allows for precise temperature control, shorter preheating times, and even heat distribution throughout the cooking cavity.

A dedicated pizza mode hits 350°C with a stone included

The SpaceMaster includes a 350-degree Celsius pizza program paired with an included pizza stone, designed to replicate the crispy crust results of a traditional stone oven at home.

ASUS Unveils ProArt AI PCs With On-Device 120B-Parameter LLM Power

Berlin – September 07, 2026 -- ASUS has introduced its new ProArt lineup at IFA 2026, built around NVIDIA's RTX Spark platform to let creators and developers run heavy AI workloads directly on their laptops instead of the cloud.

The lineup includes the ProArt P16 and P14 laptops plus the GR1X mini PC, all powered by RTX Spark, which pairs a Blackwell RTX GPU with 6,144 CUDA cores and a 20-core NVIDIA Grace CPU. ASUS says the systems deliver up to 1 petaflop of AI performance and up to 128GB of unified memory.

On-device AI removes cloud token limits

RTX Spark can run 120-billion-parameter large language models, render 3D scenes larger than 90GB, and generate 4K AI video entirely on the device, according to ASUS. The company says this gives users full workflow customization and private local data handling without relying exclusively on cloud services.

Dyson's New Toothbrush Has a Built-In Camera to Find Plaque

Paris – September 07, 2026 -- Dyson has unveiled the CameraJet, a toothbrush with a built-in camera designed to locate gaps between teeth and clean them with a targeted jet of mouthwash. The company says it is the first brush of its kind to combine camera-guided detection with precision fluid dynamics, and it goes on sale September 1, 2026, priced at 479 euros.

A tiny camera tracks gaps between teeth in real time

A 100,000-pixel macro lens camera scans the mouth during brushing, using a machine-learning system Dyson calls Gap Optical Targeting. The algorithm processes 28 live images per second to detect, track, and predict interdental gaps, then fires a cone-shaped mouthwash jet at the identified spot within 100 milliseconds. Dyson says the system runs on 16 million lines of code and was trained on 470,000 images of teeth.

Austria's Tiroler Zugspitz Arena Puts a Live Webcam on a Moving Boat — and the Views Are Stunning

SHERIDAN, WYOMING – July 19, 2026 – A tourism region in the Austrian Alps has found an unusually clever way to let travelers preview a holiday before booking: a live webcam mounted on a passenger boat sailing across one of Tyrol's most scenic lake landscapes. The Tiroler Zugspitz Arena has installed what it describes as the first live webcam on a moving passenger vessel in Tyrol, streaming real-time footage from the Heiterwanger See as the boat glides between sheer rock faces, forested shorelines, and crystalline alpine water. Unlike a fixed mountaintop camera, the view shifts almost every minute as the ship moves — giving prospective visitors something far closer to actually being there.
