Roborock Q Revo
For its latest offering, Roborock amped up the mopping system. The Q Revo features new dual liftable spinning mops that polish floors at 200 rpm high. There's no need to remove the mop heads. When the robot detects carpet, the mops automatically lift, and the upgraded 5,500 Pa vacuum kick in. Smart reactive tech ensures the device avoids and detects obstacles when in use, while its intelligent mapping system allows owners to create no-go zones and fast cleaning options in the app. After each clean, the Q Revo returns to its docking station, where it empties, washes, refills, and dries the device all on its own for a truly hands-off experience.

Biofire Smart Gun
Having a gun for home defense can be a good idea — but they need to be securely stored for safety's sake, making them less effective as a self-defense tool than they should be. Biofire is out to change that with its Smart Gun that's always locked but instantly accessible with the owner's biometrics. This 9mm firearm uses an integrated fingerprint and 3D facial recognition system to only unlock if whoever is holding it is authorized to use it, preventing tragic outcomes from a criminal, or worse yet, a child. The system is powered by a high-endurance internal battery that charges on the included Smart Dock, allowing you to leave the gun connected or keep it unplugged in a drawer, closet, or car with the confidence it will be ready when you need it for months at a time.
