Sony just launched a mini air conditioner that’s smaller than an average smartphone that you can wear on the go called the ‘Reon Pocket’.

The device itself may be small but in order for it to work properly, it comes with a specially designed shirt that has a small pocket behind the neck for the gadget to seat itself.

A single unit of the Reon Pocket costs $130, which is approximately ₹9,000.

​Is Google Maps a ‘security threat’ to India's sovereignty, Delhi High Court asks government

Google Maps can peer into any country in the world and while it has made navigation extremely convenient, India’s Delhi High Court thinks it might also be a ‘security threat’.

The two judge bench of Chief Justice DN Patel and Justice C Hari Shankar have asked the central government to look into the issue and decide whether or not Google should be allowed to continue posting maps on India online.

As an alternative, the PIL filed by Kisalya Shukla also requested that the Indian government launch India’s indigeous navigation system, NavIC, developed by the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) available to the general public.
