Jaguar has developed two F-TYPE Convertible rally cars, with design cues from the F-TYPE Chequered Flag Limited Edition, to continue its celebration of 70 years of sports car heritage since the XK 120 was revealed in 1948.The one-off F-TYPE rally cars also pay homage to the legendary Jaguar XK 120 registered ‘NUB 120’ which, in the early 1950s in the hands of Ian Appleyard, completed three consecutive Alpine Rallies without incurring a single penalty point, and won the RAC and Tulip.Both rally-specification F-TYPE Convertibles are powered by Jaguar’s 300PS 2.0-litre Ingenium four-cylinder petrol engine. With modifications overseen by Jaguar Design and Engineering, both cars were built to FIA specification, with comprehensively uprated brakes and suspension fitted alongside a protective rollcage, race-seats with six-point harness, bonnet-mounted light pod and fire extinguisher.

You may have seen the Atlas robot from Boston Dynamics, but did you know that Russian robotics engineers have come up with their own humanoid robot? This is FEDOR the android robot that can drive, saw, drill, weld, use keys to open locks, and even put out a fire with an extinguisher. FEDOR, which stands for Final Experimental Demonstration Object Research, was designed and tested by the Fund of Prospective Research in Moscow and may be the first robot sent to work in space. FEDOR's secret specialty is that, apart from being able to function autonomously, he can also be controlled by a human from an avatar suit. A human operator can transmit movements to the robot for especially delicate procedures, such as turning a key in a lock. The FEDOR project was started in 2014. The cyborg was originally conceived as a rescue robot. However, as the project developed, engineers announced that the machine could be used in various environments and potentially for military purposes and education. It's reported that Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin saw the project and decided that FEDOR is the perfect candidate to be the first Russian robot to be sent to work in space on the International Space Station.
