Editor's Notes
- highlights this year's biggest technology trends and what it means for 2018. What changes are on the horizon? What technologies should we hold out for? From drones to virtual/augmented reality, to creating, to innovation. Find out what is on the cusp and what will be the biggest trends of 2018.
- Smart fabric company Xenoma is looking for ways to integrate its technology into our lives, specifically in medical scenarios. The Japanese firm is showing off a set of smart pajamas that can be worn by patients in a hospital, with a specific focus on dementia patients. The idea is that, rather than confining people to rooms or keeping them under observation, the clothing can do the job automatically.
- Little rolly ball toy that you can control with your smartphone. You could roll one of these little things up to people you want to engage with—maybe an easier way to approach people than walking up to them. Attracts attention, people want to talk and know about it. A great way to break the ice with kids and teens.
