This video will blow your mind - or your hair, if you’re in a flying boat or a car - trust
us, you haven’t seen it all until you’ve seen this video.
So power up your walking-powered devices and close your electricity-generating blinds and
sit on down.
Ocean Flyer Seaglider- From the land of sheep and hobbits comes a
new mode of sea travel.
Look!
Several meters above the water's surface!
It's a boat!
It's a plane!
It's a… boat-plane?
Well, kind of, anyway.
Think of it as the sequel to Pixar's Planes.
Or like a Tesla, but with fins.
It takes off and lands exclusively in water, but it doesn't even touch the water when flying.
It uses a "wing-in-ground" effect, or "WIG" - Did you just say 'wig'? - and uses foils
to launch itself out of the water.
Really takes the concept of 'cruise control' to a whole new level.
Needless to say, it's making WAVES in the maritime world.
Or skimming over them.
And the best part is, you get to feel like a Bond villain.
Robotor- Do you ever find yourself staring at, like,
Michelangelo's David and thinking, 'I wish I could recreate this, but I just don't have
the skills'?
Well, now you don't have to.
The ROBOTOR is basically a robot arm that can sculpt solid rock into art or whatever
else.
That's awesome because who wants to put in the effort to create art?
That's what robots are for!
The ROBOTOR's creators refer to it as a "milling" tool, so this guy is somewhere between a 3D
printer, an assembly line robot, and an AI art generator.
It's weird - it's like the Stone age, but by robots.
Can anyone prove that these guys didn't jump in a time machine and build the pyramids?
It boasts "Revolutionary Self-programming Software," which is another way to say that
you shouldn't show fear around it and if you have to kill it, kill it fast because it learns.
Well, at least you won't be responsible for its actions - or its art.
JetRacer- If you've ever wondered what an Amazon package
feels like, now you can experience it yourself with the Zapata Jetracer!
Described as the "first flying car available to the public," the coolest part is that you
get a sick-AF Power Ranger helmet to wear with it!
Or at least, he does.
It has 10 jet engines, so you have 0 excuses for being late.
Incidentally, I also have a list of ten people who I would never trust to fly one of these
flying cars.
I mean, "flying car" is a bit generous.
It looks like a very nice flying chair, though.
By the way, it's totally open-air.
Which is a feature, not a bug.
Unless you're talking about the bugs in your teeth.
Cause those are bugs.
Gross.
Well, at least you won't have to worry about climate control.
Because you literally won't be able to.
Who needs a weather app when you have the Zapata Jetracer?
The Zapata Jetracer has got you covered… or uncovered.
You'll know the temperature by feeling it on your skin.
Pavegen- With this one, folks, we're taking a real
step into the future.
Pavegen is a technology company that develops and installs energy-harvesting floor tiles
that convert footsteps into clean, renewable energy.
Because what's more environmentally friendly than exploiting the kinetic energy from pedestrians?
In fact, why don't we just install a bunch of these onto some Dance Dance Revolution
machines and harness the power of dance?
We can finally say goodbye to fossil fuels and hello to foot fuels.
These tiles have been installed in a few cities and airports.
It's pretty well suited to any place with a lot of foot traffic.
They're pretty popular with their users, who generally save money on electricity costs.
The question, though: are they paying all those people?
Turatello SR320- Turatello is not your average trailer company.
Oh no!
The Turatello SR320 trailer is a semi-trailer designed exclusively for hauling race karts.
Don't be surprised if your new Turatello Sr320 Reduced B semi-trailer becomes the talk of
the paddock.
It's like a hotel room on wheels, just for you and your karts.
Because karting isn't just a sport, it's a lifestyle.
It can be customized with a roof terrace or luxurious living quarters.
Why rough it in a regular camper when you can live like royalty in a Turatello semi-trailer?
Apogee- Here's a riddle: what do you call a cyborg
without an exoskeleton?
If you answered "manual laborer," you'd be correct!
German Bionic, the company behind Apogee, sees this product as making manual labor a
little less manual.
Because making art is for robots, but lifting heavy things is only kind for robots.
These suits are mostly designed to take the brunt of the weight off of people's hips and
backs, so they can lift things off the ground without throwing out their backs.
I gotta get one of these for my grandma.
As a society, we must ask ourselves: will the Amazon warehouse workers use their new
super-suits for good or evil?
Clic Light- This wireless light signaling device is perfect
for bikers, scooter riders, segway users, and even unicyclists.
Clic-Light: because signaling with your arms is so last century.
With 6 light signals and high visibility, you'll be seen from 400 meters away in any
weather condition.
Maybe if the Wicked Witch of the West had one of these, she wouldn't have gotten sucked
up by that tornado.
It has 6 different light signals, which is probably enough to do a Disney on Ice light
show.
It's robust, adaptable, and waterproof, with military-grade materials and an IP65 rating.
I know how relieved all of you are that you can now safely bike in the rain.
VinZent- This one goes to all you lumberjacks out there.
You'll be the safest lumberjack in the forest.
VinZent has got you covered (literally)!
Developed by the German company BaSt-Ing, which refers to it as a "Körperschutz" - say
that ten times fast - it's designed to give you peace of mind while chopping down trees.
I'm gonna start wearing this to the beach.
I've never trusted those coconut trees.
Don't worry about falling branches; let VinZent take the hit.
Whether harvesting hardwood or enjoying the scenery, VinZent has your back...and your
head!
I think you'll still have to dodge the falling trees, though.
Robotic Knee Orthosis - Want to dance the night away but worried about
knee pain?
This bad boy will have you moving like John Travolta in no time.
And yes, you'll demonstrate at the next family gathering.
The robotic knee orthosis is a wearable device designed to support and assist individuals
with knee joint issues, such as osteoarthritis or injuries.
If you've been slapping your knees from laughing so hard at this video, you might also need
one!
Aw, who are we kidding?
You'll need two.
The Robotic Knee Orthosis: turning knee pain into knee-slapping laughter.
And it looks pretty cool, too.
Like, they could've made it look really dorky, but it actually looks kind of badass.
You can be the talk of the town...or at least the physical therapy waiting room.
SolarGaps- Don't be blinded by the awesomeness of this
next product.
If you're like me, you're bored by what's outside and hate sunlight.
Well, SolarGaps is the answer to all of your problems, as long as your problem is having
another device to charge.
These smart window blinds generate clean energy through the use of photovoltaic panels.
The blinds can be controlled through an app - because who doesn't want an app to manage
their window blinds?
And the best part is, you can still know if it's sunny outside just by checking your power
bill.
I mean, what's the point of having windows if you can't overcomplicate their coverings?
With great power comes great responsibility (to always have your phone charged and ready
to adjust
your blinds).
