New Bionic Lenses Enable On-Demand Mechanical Zooming
We have covered quite a few different contact lenses here on Bit Rebels. Some of them have been on the edge of technology itself. But I don't think many contact lenses will have the chance to impress when compared to what a team of American and Swiss engineers have been able to achieve with their bi ...

Mechanical Gaming Now Available For Donkey Kong Fans
Do you remember the first time you played Donkey Kong on one of those handheld monochrome things you could get as a child in the early '80s? They had pre-etched characters positioned on the LCD screen, which made it look like your character was actually moving, jumping and climbing ladders. It was a ...

Star Wars Steampunk: From A Whole Nother Perspective
This Star Wars siege must have been deeper in me than I initially thought. I urge you to keep reading since this one will truly mess with the essentials of the whole Star Wars genre. We have seen quite a few Star Wars modifications, creations and designs by now, and we're always on them like they we ...
Lipstick Enigma: A Lipstick Installation of Geeky Goodness

It's always something that makes us geeks either go, "Wow, I want my room to look just like that!" or "That's not how it works cau ...

A Robot Fish Can Help Save The Environment!

I am sure everyone is already aware of the oil spill that has caused so much damage to the environment and has killed so many of the animals (birds and fish) living in the vicinity of ...

Bugatti Veyron – The World’s Most Advanced Lego Build
There's been a lot of Lego chatter here on Bit Rebels lately, and we know it. There is just no getting around the awesomeness of that block. I am not even going to go into what makes it awesome anymore cause if you don't get it by now, I am sure you never will. As we have concluded, there is Lego ...

Musical Paper
Imagine being able create music by just punching some holes on a specially designed paper kit and viola!
Found this Mechanical Music Box Kit. You got to admit that we've always had a soft spot for these little music boxes, especially the ones that play "Imagine". But this one is truly special. It ...
