New technology products and services are coming on-board faster than people can keep up with them. In this post, we take a look at some of the latest developments and how they are serving both businesses and people.
Interactive Yoga Mat Gamifies Stretching
Poses such as “down dog” and “side crow” are great for balance, posture, and flexibility. But they can be a little repetitive. And, worse still, people can get them wrong, putting them at risk of injury.
For this reason, Solelp, a gadget brand, is introducing an interactive yoga mat. The product will feature a camera-front bar, interactive handles, a screen, smart mat technology and a companion app.
Unlike regular “dumb” yoga mats, this device will provide exercisers with real-time feedback on their posture, hand, and feet placements while also making yoga fun. Users will get help stretching further and a better view of their body shape during training.
Enhanced Chat For Business Websites
Websites can sometimes struggle to engage customers in the way that firms hope. Even if they look great, many lack the necessary level of interactivity required to serve the needs of users adequately.
Because of this, Click4Assistance is improving its live chat services for businesses. The software is more than just a chat app that displays in users’ web browsers. Instead, it is a fully-integrated product that provides additional functionality than other solutions. Reps, for instance, can extend the chat window to provide customers with additional information and links to products. And intelligent chat routing technology makes it easier to connect customers to the agent who can help them the most. All these innovations improve the experience for both clients and reps.
Twitter Announced Edit Button
Twitter has been around for sixteen years. And in all that time, users had no ability to edit their posts. Now, though, that’s changing. In a statement made on the company’s official blog, the social network said that the new edit feature will let users change their messages a few times within a 30-minute period before they become final. After the time is up, a timestamp will appear above the Tweet, confirming that the event took place. Users can then click an accompanying label to view the revision history for full transparency.
Ring Introduces A Doorbell That Lets You Open Your Flat Door From Anywhere
Ring, a global doorbell security brand, is well-known for its products all over the world. Previous products regular family homeowners grant access via their smartphones. However, the company is introducing a doorbell that lets you open the front door to your apartment or flat building via a device that connects to your entry phone. The system still relies on voice input, but it is a step in the right direction for flat-dwellers looking to make their lives more convenient. With the new system, you can let the maid in while you’re out at work, or grant access to kids returning from school.
Climbers And Photographers Successfully Fly A Drone On Everest’s Summit
Every year, thousands of explorers trudge their way to the summit of Mount Everest and spend just a few brief moments taking in the view before heading back down again. But this year, a team of climbers launched a DJI Mavic 3 from the summit which then flew up in the air to an altitude of 9232 metres before descending. The stunt demonstrated the drone’s ability to fly at high altitudes.
JBL’s Earbuds Now Come In A Smart Charging Case
JBL has launched a new set of earbuds that come in a smart charging case. The Tour Pro 2’s case has a small 1.45-inch screen that users can touch and interact with at the same time. Designers say that it eliminates the need for users to control their earbuds from their phones.
JBL will make the Tour Pro 2 earbuds available in black and champagne. They will be available from January 2023.
Sony Introduces A New PS5 Model
Lastly, Sony is rolling out a new PS5 model that is a slimmed-down version of the original console. According to a Press Start report, the model is already making its way into store shelves in Australia and will be coming to the rest of the world soon after that.
The new CFI-1202A is the second such revision Sony has made to its PS5 lineup since introducing the console back in November 2020. Analysts believe the Japanese firm was able to save weight by changing the device’s internal parts.
