For the water sports enthusiasts with deep pockets here is a watercraft that will take the breath away of the onlookers. From its outward appearance it just looks like a helicopter, with a helicopter ‘fuselage’ on top of a catamaran base.

The HeliCat 22 is a catamaran designed and built for stable and safe fun in rough waters. It is fast, economical and practical for water travel, transport, and adventure. Its new design makes this eye-catching, lightweight, stable and agile catamaran safe in rough seas, and a lot of fun with great fuel economy and near zero maintenance.

I have always hoped that someone will come up with an idea of an easy-install child seat that will take out all the hassle out of installing traditional seats for my nephews and nieces when they come over for a visit. It takes so much effort and space because these seats are not only heavy and bumpy but each car has a different attachment system.

Do you really feel clean after a shower and drying up with a towel? This was the idea behind developing the 30-Seconds Body Dryer; to eliminate towels.

Is there a limit to what your smartphone can do? As they rightly say Only Sky is the limit. Now you can interact with the night sky in a whole new way using the COSMOS 90GT Wi-Fi telescope and your smartphone or tablet!

Your COSMOS 90GT automatically swerves towards the object and the screen displays information about it. It’s never been more fun to explore the universe!

It has also been used as a classroom model for demonstration of Conservation of Momentum. Now a futuristic dimension has been added to it where the metal spheres have been replaced by glass spheres that each sport bright, multicolor LEDs, hence the name – the Kinetic Light Newton’s Cradle.
