No one likes scum on the surface of their pool, but likewise, no one lists “skimming the pool” as their top chore they enjoy. It’s ok, though — Beatbot has the Sora 70 robot, who would love nothing more than to happily spend the day skimming your pool for you.
Last year, Eli Health rolled out the Hormometer. It’s a simple cartridge that lets you test your cortisol (stress hormone) levels with saliva, all without blood tests or even getting out of your PJs.

Having a pool is a great way to stay cool while enjoying the summer, but pools, like pets, require a lot of responsibility, cleaning, and maintenance. You can outsource the work to your kids, or hire a “poolboy,” or you can get everything sparkling and shiny with the smart, powerful, and hands-off Beatbot AquaSense X.
Baseus may not be a household name in the US (yet), but they have a slate of devices to make your tech run smoother, from security cameras to docking stations and portable batteries for all sorts of setups. They’ve got you covered at home and on the go!
It’s hard to make headphones or portable speakers interesting. You can tweak the shape of a speaker or add a clever strap for backpack duty. You can dress up a pair of headphones with new colors or textures. But at the end of the day, everyone knows what over-the-ear headphones are, and everyone knows what a small Bluetooth speaker does. The TDM Neo tries something different by combining both, and it just might make you rethink how you use each.
If you have to juggle a schedule for more than one person, or just get a handle on what’s going on in your household, you probably have THE CALENDAR.

Cozyla has a better way with their new Calendar+Max concept.

Drunk driving is not a joke. It’s dangerous, and it’s one of those things where a single bad call can ruin your life or someone else’s in seconds. The problem is that unless you’ve got an interlock installed or you’re carrying a breath tester around like a nervous raccoon, it’s surprisingly easy to misjudge when you’ve crossed the line from “probably fine” to impaired. That’s where trinamiX and AUMOVIO come in, with a new non-invasive touch-based solution designed to live right inside your car and check your BAC before you ever turn the key.
There are many ways to secure your home yourself. Every company with a camera and an app can sell you a home security system. This is not where GEO-SWARM went with their home security plan. They, apparently, were deeply inspired by the movie Home Alone.
One of the hardest things for loved ones as we get older is the in-between times. It’s easier when you know for sure that someone can’t live alone anymore, but when they’re starting to slow down but still want to be independent, it’s a lot tougher to know if you’re making the right decisions. The Cairns Health Luna wants to replace traditional “alert buttons” with a more hands-on AI solution that lets elderly loved ones remain more safely independent!

Roku has nailed the modern TV experience. Streaming bundles have become so tangled they feel like cable all over again, but Roku’s clean interface and simple search keep it manageable. Now, Roku is taking things a step further with Philips, and the result makes the hardware as exciting as the software: the Philips Roku TV Featuring Ambilight. Ambilight is Philips’ exclusive lighting technology that extends the action on screen onto the wall behind your TV.

At some point, we may regret outsourcing so many household chores to robots. Until then, however, it’s exciting to see how they’re evolving from proof of concept to rapidly improving “how did we live without this” devices! MAMMOTION has been leading the way with their lawnmowers, and their latest devices out of IFA 2025 show that if you’ve been on the fence about robotic landscapers, now is the time to jump in.
