Being an ER doctor seems like a completely stressful job. Amidst all the chaos, they have to figure out what’s wrong, and how to fix it before it’s too late. I’m sweating just thinking about it. To try to speed up the diagnosis process so that doctors can do their jobs better, WRIXO invented a cloud-based medical ID bracelet with a QR code that can be scanned to quickly check medical records and access emergency contacts. It’s especially useful for the elderly, or people with existing medical conditions.
Speaking of lifesavers, this next device is a lifesaver in the kitchen! Klove, a smart kitchen timer can fit on any stove knob fixture and also fraternize with the likes of Amazon Alexa and her lot. Through its app, you can get recipe instructions so that you can avoid getting raw chicken or pasta sauce all over your cookbooks.

Every time I get a coffee I have the following thoughts: is this cup compostable? How many zillions of cups are piling up in my local landfill because people like me wanted an iced Americano with almond milk? It’s no wonder coffee gives me heartburn. A very logical solution is to BYOC(up). Even better than the standard travel mug you get at Target, is a reusable cup that’s made out of waste products from making coffee! Huskee is making fun cups that you can use for your warm bevs so you don’t have to have the daily landfill freakout anymore.
