Get ready for Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked event on April 28 with new range of laptops

This cloud-based humanoid robot is just what you need to assist you with a variety of office and domestic chores. Cruzr has flexible arms capable of shaking hands. It moves like humans, uses real-time mapping to avoid obstacles and identifies faces in milliseconds. It can be used for video surveillance, video

conferencing, intelligent customer service and more.

One of the latest spin-offs from Samsung Electronics’ C-Lab, the S-Ray (Sound Ray) is a portable directional speaker. Unlike conventional speakers which spread out the sound in all directions, S-Ray sends the sound directly forward so only the people in the right direction can hear it. It runs on lower power without impacting volume or sound quality.

Shades are passé. Gift yourself the world’s first augmented reality smart glasses and see overlaid information — indoors or out — like mapping directions, restaurant menus, weather information, alerts and more without picking up a second screen. It can also be your workplace essential for delivering handsfree, mobile computing requirements.

Calling itself the world’s first bacteria-killing robot, this little device is a must-have if you travel frequently. When you check into hotels, CleanseBot can sanitise your room and prevent the spread of airborne viruses. It has 18 built-in sensors and uses four UV-C lamps to blast away 99 per cent of germs and bacteria on any surface. Cleansebot is presently raising funds on Kickstarter.

If you hate the alarm clock, let your favourite smell wake you up. The Sensorwake Trio is a smell-based alarm clock that promises to wake you up happier and motivated. It uses silent, oil-free dry diffusion technology and lets you choose from a wide variety of aromas, like coffee, the beach, forest, or peppermint.

This breakthrough innovation in personal heart health tech made news earlier this year. Now the smartwatch with medical-grade blood pressure tracking is ready to adorn your wrist. The wearable has an inflatable cuff built into the watch band. It uses oscillometric measurement — the inflation of cuff to measure systolic and diastolic pressure — to measure (FDA recognised) blood pressure automatically.
