The Hot/Cold Facial Sauna


 This is the facial sauna that open pores with warm mist that cleanses and closes them with cool mist that hydrates. Ideal for rejuvenating and refreshening skin, defending against dryness, and counteracting signs of aging, the sauna generates nano-sized steam particles 1/4,000 the size of typical water molecules in just three minutes. The warm mist penetrates deep into pores to soften dead skin cells and dissolve dirt, oil, and cosmetics, leaving skin soft and smooth. The unit also produces cool mist that closes the pores to refresh skin, defend against dryness, and prepare it for the application of your preferred moisturizing products. Its built-in timer provides 3-, 6-, 9, 12-, and 15-minute sessions; shuts off automatically. Takes up the same space as a box of tissues. Its removable cup allows you to refill the 8 oz. reservoir easily.

Now, smartphone that folds into a tablet or laptop

Scientists have developed the world's first foldable smartphone that changes to a tablet and a notebook using a set of screens and hinges.
The shape-changing smartphone allows users to fold open up to three flexible electrophoretic displays to provide extra screen real estate, the amount of space available on a display, when needed.

Displays are detachable such that users can fold the device into various shapes that can range from an ultra notebook shape to a foldout map.
PaperFold automatically recognises its shape and changes its graphics to provide different functionality upon shape changes.
For example, folding the device into an ultra notebook form factor opens up a keyboard on the bottom screen. Users could use this form factor to type a search.
By flattening PaperFold's three displays, the user changes views to a Google map that spans all screens.
Shaping PaperFold into a convex globe shows the map in Google Earth view.
Folding PaperFold into the shape of a 3D building on the map will pick up a Google SketchUp model of the building and turn the device into an architectural model that can be 3D printed.
Researchers said the inspiration for PaperFold came from its namesake: paper.
Typically, mobile devices require scrolling or zooming in order to see different parts of a document whereas paper can be folded, detached or combined allowing it to be accessed in multiple parallel forms.
