“Ford has been teasing fans with hardcore versions of the Bronco and has been revealing some interesting design characteristics, and now it has announced that industry giant ArcelorMittal has been selected as the sole provider of steel for the 2021 Bronco. Ford will be making use of the company’s Fortiform 980 GI steel, a third-generation advanced high-strength steel, making the Bronco the first car in the world to use this specific grade.” Read more here.

5. Dancing Into the Weekend
Not everyone can dance, but perhaps there are programs that can help you show off at few parties… At least, your pet robot. “The fun video offers the first glimpse at two Atlas robots working together while also highlighting just how quickly this technology is developing.” A mix of funny and creepy, we’re just going to leave it right here. (“Entire Boston Dynamics robot line-up dances in the new year“)

Have a great weekend!
