The gadget comes with a transparent LCD that becomes dark when the room needs some fresh air and simply sliding this window allows you to make your home fresh and clean once again.

To control the robot, a hand-held remote is provided that can be operated from within a 100 feet radius. The robot made of durable rubber is waterproof and includes plastic blades in the design. After removing dirt (even stubborn ones) from the gutter, the robot wipes the gutter to make it completely clean. The robot has been designed such that it gains enough flexibility to reach out to all corners of a gutter. To transport the robot from one gutter to another, you just have to attach the remote to the top of the robot which creates a handle for convenient transport of the robot.
7. The Activent
An Activent is a smart device that helps to keep all the rooms of your home or office at a comfortable temperature. Often during heating or cooling a home, the room where the heater or air conditioner has been placed gains far more or far less temperature than is comfortable for a person to stay in. Activent eradicates this problem and makes all corners of the home equally comfortable. This device not only redistributes the cold or hot air, but also maintains a specific temperature that’s set by you. This device not only helps your home get an even, comfortable temperature but also reduces the cost of heating or cooling as it prohibits excess heating or cooling of rooms.
