Plexidor Pet Door is an electronic doggy door with vertical sliding [...]

Kochi, India has a pretty bad traffic problem it seems — bad enough for them to try a novel way to control the chaos. Police have recently begun installing remote controlled traffic lights in the most problematic areas. While every major city has its issues with traffic, I don’t think anyone has tried this before, [...]
