Zeb Pilot House

Built as both a single-family home and an example of green living, the Zeb Pilot House combines angular lines with comfortable spaces. Born of a collaboration between Snohetta, research body SINTEF, Zero Emission Building partners, and Optimera, the house has a roof that's tilted towards the southeast and covered with solar panels; this array, combined with geothermal wells, more than covers the home's energy use, with enough left over to power an electric vehicle year-round. Despite the modern form, the interior is surprisingly cozy, with walls of brick, stacked firewood, and natural wood panels. The exterior is finished with a garden, outdoor atrium with fireplace, a swimming pool, and shower, the latter of which use solar-generated thermal heating to maximize the energy savings.

S7 Max Ultra & Roborock Easy-to-use App

Many people are neglecting cleaning around their homes due to their busy schedules. But what if it were as easy as checking your social media? The S7Max Ultra & Roborock Easy-to-use App makes sweeping and moping as simple as updating your status. The robot vacuum offers homeowners complete hands-free cleaning without compromising on features. Users can create custom cleaning routines in the app by pre-scheduling sweeps or starting a clean with just a tap.

Vinovest

Fine wine returned 13.1% in 2022, outperforming S&P 500, Bitcoin, and even gold, while rare whiskey returned 395% from 2013 to 2023. Vinovest is making this widely untapped resource more accessible to everyone. The online platform allows beginners to create or expand their portfolio with assets in wine and spirits for a fraction of the cost. After taking a quiz to discover their investment goals and time horizons, users are matched with proven wines that best fit their goals. They must fund their account, then Vinovest does the rest. They take care of storage, insurance, and selling the asset for maximum profits, with typical hold times at three years for whiskey and three to five for wine. Users own their wine bottles and whiskey casks directly, so they can have their assets shipped to their homes and drink the profit instead.

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.
