IoT gets interesting with smart party lights, Bluetooth controller
CSR announced a Bluetooth smart solution that places the smartphone smack-center in the Internet of Things’ movement. Dubbed the CSR Mesh, it allows for an almost unlimited number of Bluetooth Smart enabled devices to be simply networked together and controlled directly from a single smartphone, tablet or PC.
Find out more about the CSR Mesh, as well as new home automation products, in this week’s SmartHome roundup.
Truly fashionable gesture control, alerts + digital visualization
There’s no escaping wearable technology but at least now, brands are becoming more conscious of how their products look, and are making devices people would actually wear. Soon, wearable tech will no longer be seen as bulky or only meant for sporty people. Even fashion-forward individuals will enjoy wearing items such as Logbar Inc.’s Ring, as well as Cuff, and apparel from CuteCircuit.
Find out what these connected devices do in this week’s WearableTech roundup.
What will you do while your car drives itself?
Self-driving cars may not be available in the mark for another 10 years, but some companies are already looking into what drivers can do while their car is on autopilot. At the 84th Geneva Motor Show, car manufacturers presented some amazing concept designs for the cars of the future.
Check out what Rinspeed and Volvo have in store for the future in this week’s SmartCar roundup.
Smart toy turns toddlers into programmers + more
If you want your kid to turn into a computing wiz, why not start him or her off with Play-i robots Bo and Yana who will teach kids as young as five years old computer programming. It’s quite unbelievable programming is something even adults don’t easily grasp, but that’s what Play-i promises. The robots teach the kids programming by allowing them to discover how to make the robots do more activities or figure out how make something not working, work, with the use of their parent’s mobile device.
Find out more about the Play-i robots, as well as how you can make your own wine in just a few days, in this week’s SmartDevice roundup.
Tune in next week for more interesting stories, discoveries and innovations in the world of smart and connected things.
