All sorts of contact lenses have been created for cosmetic effect, but this invention actually solves a real problem: bifocals.

Inspired by the retina of the elephant nose fish, the lenses work by gathering light to determine a point of focus.

3. Bluetooth Keyfinder

If you’re anything like me, you often forget where you put the most important and much needed things — like your car keys.

I remember the whistle tool that you could hang on your keychain. You could whistle and it would beep to let you know where it was. This gadget brings that to a whole new level. Find your keys, or anything you attach it to, with a smartphone app!

Heck, you could hang this on your dog or cat’s collar, even your pocketbook or your favorite article of clothing. Bringing this tech to your home will certainly make life easier!

4. Belkin Rotating Power Strips

Self explanatory, I know, but check out the versatility of having a power strip that rotates so you can point the individual outlets at whichever direction you need. I got a lot of cables — speakers, desktop power, monitor power, a soundboard mixer, a small air conditioner and a laptop. That all adds up!

One of the biggest annoyances I’ve always had is my power cables bending in different directions and oftentimes coming out of the power strip as a result. This versatile gadget really solves that problem in a way others have neglected to in the past.

7. Rechargable USB AA Batteries

When rechargable batteries were introduced to me in the late 80s, there were special rechargers we had to buy. It was great because we could keep our batteries instead of throwing them out. Recycling became commonplace, but carrying loads of batteries wasn’t practical.

The USB rechargeable battery is nothing short of amazing. You can use it for whatever device you need AAs for, but then recharge the batteries with your computer or portable phone charger (such as the solar powered or bike powered gadgets). I needed batteries for my flashlight and this came in handy. What would YOU use it for?
