BenjiLock Fingerprint Bike Lock
Benjilock, one of the best fingerprint lock manufacturers just released its new product for bikers. It is a fingerprint lock made for bikes, be it an e-Bike or a regular one. I always wanted to have something like this because when I take my bike to Gym, it is kinda inconvenient to find my keys, unlock the U lock, fix it in place and lock it. What if you could lock or unlock your bike's U lock in a second? This gadget does exactly that.
As I spoke to one of their team at CES 2020, the fingerprint lock is not yet available in the market but it could be released in around September of 2020 (Update: the product is already available to purchase at HomeDepot). They did have a working prototype that I personally tested.
The battery life on the U lock is around 6 to 8 months which is amazing.
Manta5 Hydrofoiler XE lets you Bicycle on Water
There was a time when road bikes were popular but now it is time for waterbikes to make some noise. What if you could ride a bicycle on water? Yes, on water. Walking on water is not possible but at least we can bicycle on water, thanks to Hydrofiler XE by Manta5. You still don't believe me, do you? Just go down this article and watch the video yourself. I saw this humongous bike at CES 2020. Due to its size, it is not easy to carry. It uses the hydrofoil technique to stay afloat and requires you to continuously pedal it.
As I spoke to one of their team, Hydrofoiler XEÂ has a battery life of 1 hour. As soon as the battery reaches a threshold, it pops up a warning on the display. If the battery dies, it does sink down if there is a person on it.
AfterShokz Aeropex Mini Bone Conduction Headphones
Not a lot of bone conduction speakers are good, in fact, most of them are bad. Recently I reviewed a bone conduction audio glasses and it is one of the worst gadgets I came across in 2019. But hold on, we have a good product to showcase. When I was at CES2020, I happened to visit the AfterShokz booth to check out their newest product. When I was there, I came across their new headband (Aeropex Mini) that uses bone conduction technology to transfer sound directly to the inner ears. It was amazing. Even in such a noisy environment, I could hear the music very well. The audio quality was not bad at all.
The headband is very light. you won't even notice wearing it. It is super comfortable and the bone conduction earpieces don't cause discomfort at all. It comes in different colors and I really loved the red one.

Pokit PRO – All in one Multimeter, Oscilloscope and Logger
I came across this amazing gadget during CES 2020 and it is by far one of my favorite pieces of tech in 2020. Pokit Pro is a 3 in 1 device that can act as a multimeter, oscilloscope and data logger. The multimeter supports up to 600V and 10A. The oscilloscope can measure frequencies, display waveforms on your phone and works in time and frequency domain. The data logger can log the data continuously for six months. The logger is really handy if you are testing something in the long run.
You can visualize all the reading via their smartphone app. Since it connects wirelessly, you can put the device in action somewhere and view the reading at a distance.
It has a rechargeable battery that lasts upto 6 months which is ridiculously high. I wish I had this gadget when I was pursuing my Electronics Engineering Undergrads. Pokit pro is ultra-portable,
V-Coptr Falcon Bi-Copter Drone
Zero zero robotics showcased their latest drone named V Coptr Falcon at CES 2020 and it is definitely one of the coolest drones I have ever seen.
V Copter Falcon has a 4K camera with gimbal stabilization, 7 km remote control range and a whopping 50 minutes battery life. Read it again, 50 minutes of flight time. This is something no other drones have, not even the best in the market.
This bicopter could last for such a long time just because it uses only 2 motors whereas a typical drone uses 4 motors, thereby increasing the power consumption. Falcon bicopter does all maneuvers with just 2 motors. It can go sideways, rotate and whatnot.
The bicopter has a front-facing collision avoidance mechanism. I wish it had a 360-degree collision avoidance system. I have personally seen and had my hands-on experience with this V Coptr Falcon even though I haven't tested it outdoors.
