Hush Little Baby, Don’t You Cry
Halo, Motorola’s new monitor, has a 1080p camera that connects to the side of a crib or cot, hanging over the top so you can keep an eye on your little one. It also features infrared night vision of up to 10 meters. Halo will also project virtual light mobiles and soothing music.
A Magic Wand for Flawless Skin
It had to happen, the answer to every woman’s prayers. The Opté Precision Skincare System from P&G Ventures is made up of a Precision Wand and a Precision Serum, which work together to provide long-term benefits and instant coverage of problem areas. The wand uses four technologies: blue LED scan lights, an integrated digital camera, a Minicomputer Precise Color Algorithm and a Micro Serum Jet Printer. Used with Precision Serum, the wand may just be the next best thing to the Elixir of Youth.
We are waiting for it to pop up here in Egypt.
Snore No More
The Hupnos anti-snoring sleep mask could be solution to a problem that nobody likes to discuss. The mask comes with an app that picks up on when you’re starting to snore. It uses its built-in accelerometer to determine your sleeping position and vibrates to get you to move to a less ‘snore-able’ position. It can also increase the pressure when you exhale or Expiratory Positive Airway Pressure (EPAP) to help open up your airways and stop any snoring.
No More Counting Sheep
Urgonight is a headband and app combo that uses electroencephalogram (EEG) patterns to deliver feedback to teach you how to produce sleep-enhancing brainwaves. Apparently for sustainable results it take three months of three 20-minute sessions a week to achieve. Volunteers?
