ULTRA HD TVs
Samsung, Sony, Sharp, LG and more all unveiled new so-called “Ultra HD” TVs, which pack in way more pixels on the screen than your 1080p set at home. The result? The most gorgeous picture you’ve ever seen in a living room.
GECKO CAP

Invented by a pediatrician, the Gecko Cap is a rubber sensor that you put on top of your child’s inhaler; when he or she needs to use the inhaler, a light on the cap starts to flash and doesn’t stop until the inhaler has been used. It also syncs with an app so that a parent can see when the child has used the inhaler from afar.
CHARGE CARD
A portable iPhone charger the size of a credit card. One end plugs into your phone, and then a rubber extension doubles as a USB charger, which you can plug into your computer. Ditch the cord and carry around your charger in your wallet.
DISPLAIR
Pure coolness: The Displair projects any display onto a misting wall of vapor, which you can then control with your fingers just like you would any other touchscreen. There’s no great use for this technology yet, but it sure is cool to play Fruit Ninja on a screen made of mist.
