NEW GADGETS

NETATMO’S JUNE BRACELET. There are a few bracelets on the market for monitoring your health or level of activity. The Netatmo’s June bracelet is different because it is designed specifically for people who are worried about getting too much sun. The gemstone bracelet costs

$99 USD and comes in three colours - gold, silver and gunmetal. The bracelet measures the strength of the sun and then sends the information to an app on your phone, telling you if you need to wear a hat, sunglasses or to put on some sun cream. It looks great, and it could also save your skin sunburn.

GOJI SNART LOCK. The Goji Smart lock allows you to open your front door with a simple tap on your phone screen. Using an in-built camera, it can take pictures of people at your door and send a photo message to your phone. So if your child has forgotten their key, you can see that they’re there and send a digital key to their phone. (It can store any number of digital keys.) It runs on four AA batteries and is very simple to fit to your front door. It costs $278 US.

PANONO PANORAMIC CAMERA. The Panano is a camera shaped like a football and has 36 image sensors on it. It weighs 300 grams and measures11 centimeters in diameter. When you hold it, you want to throw it up in the air. And that’s exactly what you are supposed to do. An accelerometer detects when the Panono has stopped going up and at that point the camera uses all 36 sensors to take a single 360-degree photo, which you can view on your phone or computer with a special app. It’s made of strong plastic, so it won’t break easily. But don’t throw it too hard! Price is approximately $ 500.
