A new upgrade kit that adds a remotely triggered backup camera cleaner to your car was announced by a Vermont-based startup, while Ford is focusing on efficiency to make its 2027 $30,000 EV pickup affordable, according to recent reports. Additionally, Qodo, the AI code review startup, believes it has a solution to the "amnesia" problem of coding agents with the launch of what it calls the industry's first intelligent Rules System for AI governance. These developments come as the rise of luxury car theft continues to be a growing concern.
The Lens Lizard, an aftermarket upgrade kit, keeps a car's backup camera clean and usable, according to The Verge. The system is installed using a car's existing license plate screw holes. Meanwhile, Ford is working on a new Universal EV Platform, starting with a midsize truck that is expected to start at $30,000. The company is focusing on doing more with less, using fewer components and less energy to go the same distance, according to Ars Technica.
Qodo's new system, announced as part of Qodo 2.1, replaces the temporary nature of most LLM chat sessions, giving AI code reviewers persistent, organizational memory, VentureBeat reported. This is a response to the critical weakness of AI-powered coding tools, which often forget everything from previous sessions. The new system is designed to give AI code reviewers persistent memory.
In other tech news, the simplest Android app for scanning documents is FairScan, according to Wired. The app allows users to take photos of each page of a paper document, crop out the edges, straighten everything, and combine the photos into a PDF file.
Finally, MIT Technology Review highlighted the rise of luxury car theft, where criminals use email phishing, fraudulent paperwork, and other tactics to impersonate legitimate transport companies and steal vehicles. They then erase traces of the vehicle's original ownership and registration.
