Facebook: Creators must disclose paid partnerships with political campaigns
Mike Bloomberg's ploy to reach voters through bad Instagram memes may be tacky, but it is not violating any Facebook or Instagram rules, as long as creators disclose paid partnerships. "After hearing from multiple campaigns, we agree that there's a place for branded content in political discussion on our platforms," Facebook said in a statement provided to Engadget.
Six innovative tech solutions future-proofing hotel experiences
For the tech-savvy traveller, a hotel room is more than a place to rest at the end of the night – it's a fully operating hub.

The unique racing helmet that monitors the brain
A brain-scanning helmet developed to monitor mental energy and focus is at the centre of a ground-breaking study exploring the mind as the next frontier of performance. A month ago, we brought you a story of the experiment being undertaken by Ford Performance in conjunction with King's College London and tech partner UNIT9. Its purpose was to explore how mental training techniques used by racing drivers and professional athletes – breathing meditation and visualisation – affect the brain's performance. But, more than this, it wanted to see if ordinary people might be able to adopt these same techniques to their own advantage in everyday life.
How laptops are evolving into VR-enabled gaming monsters
There's something of an arms race going on in the world of gaming notebooks right now. Increasingly weaponised designs – brutalist, futurist, angular, plenty of Kevlar motifs – are being matched by data processing power to justify such swagger.

Ground-breaking tech aims to improve mental performance
A cutting-edge brain-scanning helmet is being used to measure how racing drivers can improve their performance by using mental training techniques. The proposed prototype is part of a ground-breaking study exploring the brain as the next frontier of performance and how mental training techniques used by professional drivers could help us all to cope with stressful situations in everyday life.

The future of the smartphone camera: where next?
Cameras on smartphones have improved dramatically since the first iPhone landed 10 years ago.
