SPYSHOTS: Sony Vision-S sighted on test in Europe

First unveiled at the 2020 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, the Sony Vision-S electric prototype was revealed as a test bed for its imaging and sensing technologies, built on a modular platform that is engineered by Magna Steyr. After its showing in Las Vegas, the Vision-S returned to Japan where it continued development work and to start testing on public roads.
Now, despite previously stating that it has no plans to put the Vision-S into production for consumers, the dual-motor EV has been sighted undergoing trials at a test facility in Europe, with bodywork looking close to that of the show car, which in turn looked very much like a finished product.

Food technology is no longer the preserve of lab-bound boffins. These days innovators are taking products to market themselves – and cashing in
It’s hard to pin down the precise moment when food tech went from the concern of a few product specialists in lab coats to a mainstream source of excitement.
It could’ve been way back in April 2003, when scientists first mapped the human genome, paving the way for personalised DNA diet kits. Or 2011, when US scientist Patrick Brown founded Impossible Foods, crafting meatless patties out of modified soy and heme. Perhaps even as recently as December 2020, when regulators in Singapore green-lit lab-grown chicken, built from cells and bathed in a growth serum.
