National Technology Day 2024: 5 Most Bizarre Tech Products You Won't Believe Exist
From smart toasters that analyze your bread to Wi-Fi-enabled pet feeders that let you dispense kibble from halfway across the world, the advancement of tech has certainly led to some, well, let's just say "interesting" products. It's like someone took a brainstorming session, added a dash of creativity, and ended up with a recipe for the absurd! But hey, who are we to judge??
After all, isn't it the quirky, off-the-wall inventions that make life just a little more entertaining? Whether it's a Bluetooth-enabled umbrella that tells you the weather forecast or a voice-activated trash can that responds to your every command (because who doesn't want to talk to their garbage?), these bizarre products remind us that in the world of tech, the sky's the limit...or maybe even beyond! Here's a list of 5 bizarre tech products you won't believe exist.?
1. Refrigerator content tracking?
Do you dislike it when you're in the store and can't remember why you're there? The Smarter FridgeCam lets you look inside your fridge using your smartphone, allowing you to stock up on items you're running low on without going overboard.
The gadget will also add expired or used refrigerator goods to your personal shopping list. It works by taking a picture of your fridge's contents each time you close the door and is an excellent way to reduce food wastage.?
2. HAPIfork?
Have you heard that one of the best methods to lose weight is to chew your meal slowly? This allows you to feel more full and hence eat less. This is exactly how the HAPIfork works, allowing users to track their eating speed by recording when the fork touches their mouth and how long it takes between servings.

If you eat too quickly, HAPIfork uses a gentle vibration and indicator light to quietly remind you to calm down. You may then transfer your information to your computer via Bluetooth or USB cable, allowing you to share it with family, friends, trainers, or nutritionists.?
3. Virtual kissing device?
The 'kissing apparatus,' invented by a university in Changzhou, China. The device is outfitted with'silicone lips,' pressure sensors, and actuators that can simulate the pressure, movement, and warmth of a user's lips. According to China's Global Times, the technology can replicate a real kiss.?
4. Belty
The original Belty was a prototype smart belt with a motor that adjusted itself based on whether you were eating or sitting. Impractical as hell, yet kind of cool.?

While there is a newer variant, also known as Belty, this one is even weirder: there is no auto-sizing, but the buckle contains a power bank charger.
