The Luma Lift Slouch Zapper

The Luma Lift Slouch Zapper is for anyone who wants to keep good posture. The Luma Lift zaps the wearer of the device every time they start to slouch. The device is clipped underneath the collar or into a bra strap and as soon as it feels that the wearer is slouching it will start to vibrate. LumoBodyTech are hoping to get funding for the device and they want to roll out the Luma Lift by late spring, the device will cost between $59 and $79.

The IGrow for hairloss

Apira Science has come up with a product that they call the iGrow. This is a light weight helmet that has 51 lasers and LED lights that the company says will promote hair growth. They say that the lasers, which glow red, excite the molecules which are found in the hair follicles and this stimulates hair growth. The user should wear the helmet 20 minutes every day for around 6 months and then continue to wear it every week or so for the rest of your life.

Pet Remote collar

The Pet Remote is a new device from Tractive that allows dog owners to train their pets from afar; the device fits onto the collar of the dog. Owners have to issue a command to the dog as normal, give an order verbally and then give a treat when your pet gets it right. Then you turn on the Pet Remote, which will either vibrate or make an electronic noise, this teaches your pet to associate the feeling or sound with the command you gave. The device stops you having to yell across the park if your pet should be doing something it shouldn’t. The company behind it hope to have it on sale this year if it meets the fundraising goals.
