Skulpt AimFitness buffs and body builders love numbers and data to monitor their progress, and Skulpt's Aim does just that for measuring your MQ (Muscle Quality). You place the Aim device onto a specific muscle, and it analyzes its muscle quality with thousands of data points obtained by zapping a small current through muscle and fat content with electrodes and optimized frequencies. The Aim will display your results on the device itself, and of course, you can connect it to your phone and Skulpt app for further analysis and progress reports.

Fuz Designs NokeHow can the trusty padlock possibly be improved? With Bluetooth, of course! The Fuz Designs Noke will connect to your Android or iOS device via Bluetooth 4.0 to lock, unlock and securely share access with trusted individuals. You'll be able to set a Morse code–style tap code that you enter by pressing down on the lock's shank in case your phone isn't handy, or if the Noke's battery dies.

Keecker HomePodProjectors can create "displays" you measure in feet rather than inches, but not all of them are designed with mobility in mind. With its mobile robotic HomePod projector, Keecker plans to unleash the Internet and your media from the confines of a screen to any surface in your home—and deliver 360-degree sound, too. Once you've connected the HomePod to your mobile device, you'll be able to instruct it to move around on its built-in wheels and project pictures wherever you like.

SenseHello's Sense comes with a sleep tracker called Sleep Pill that attaches to your pillow to track your movement while you sleep using a six-axis accelerometer and gyroscope. The main Sense unit contains ambient light, noise, temperature, humidity, proximity, and particulate sensors to analyze just about everything else that has an impact on your quality of sleep. It relays all the information it collects to your mobile devices via Wi-Fi and Bluetooth LE.

BloodborneBloodborne is a Playstation 4 exclusive RPG game developed by From Software and director Hidetaka Miyazaki, who also directed Dark Souls. It's set in the ancient, abandoned, and cursed city of Yharnam that's rampant with a mysterious illness, turning its inhabitants into horrifying, murderous psychopaths and monsters. You'll have to spill some blood to unlock Yharnam's secrets and stay alive.

Om OneIt's tough to innovate on Bluetooth speaker design. You mostly get a rectangular box with a variety of designs and/or features, like waterproofing. The Om/One is a little different. It levitates. In the air. Levitation is where the evolution of speakers is heading, naturally. There aren't many benefits to have your speakers levitate, apart from perhaps eliminating the transmission of sound vibrations to the surface they would normally sit on. Otherwise, it just looks cool.

OwnPhonesThe OwnPhones earphones aren't likely to come with extra sets of different-sized ear plugs. That's because OwnPhones will use an image of your ears (that you've taken yourself and sent to the company via its mobile app) and 3D print each earphone to fit you perfectly. Better yet, both earphones are independently wireless, which means there are no cables to connect them to each other.

Samsung UD590 and UE850Samsung is collaborating with AMD to bring you the UD590and UE850, two 4K monitors compatible with both AMD's open standards–based FreeSync and Nvidia's G-Sync technologies. These help eliminate tearing and reduce stuttering in order to provide a smoother gaming experience—something you'll definitely want at 3,840-by-2,160 resolution. The UD590 will be available in 23.6- and 28-inch models, and the UE850 in 23.6-, 27-, and 31.5-inch variants.

EarinThe Earin earbuds are the tiniest Bluetooth aptX earbuds we've ever heard about, weighing in at just 0.18 ounce and measuring only 0.78-inch tall and 0.55-inch in diameter. Just in case that's too small, you'll be able to get small Concha locks, which grip the contours of your ear, or you can get a tight fit with the included foam tips. We'll certainly get these in as soon as they're available to hear how big a sound comes out such small earbuds.

Scultpify David 3D PrinterIf you've ever worked with spool-fed 3D printers, you'll know they can get finicky sometimes, and they're expensive, too. Sculptify is one of the first 3D printers to use plastic pellets rather than spools. It's actually surprising that pellet-fed 3D printers aren't more common, especially since the majority of our plastic products start out as pellets in manufacturing plants.

Jawbone UP 3Fitness wearables started off with the modest task of tracking your daily steps. Now, they're measuring your heart rate while automatically figuring out exactly what your current activity is, whether it's running, cycling, or whatever else you do to stay in shape. The Jawbone UP 3uses bioimpedance sensors to measure your heart rate, and Jawbone promises to deliver over-the-air updates so the sensor can measure other physiological signals, like respiration rate.

Parrot Bebop DroneThe Bebop is Parrot's new drone that's lighter and smaller than its flagship AR. Drone 2.0, so it's safe to fly indoors. The company claims its on-board processor is eight times more powerful than the A.R 2.0, and it features a 14-megapixel fisheye camera to record video and photos with a 180-degree field of view. You'll be able to control it via Wi-Fi using the free FreeFlight 3.0 app on your mobile device, which has onscreen controls and shows you what the camera sees.

Project AraWhat if you could upgrade your phone's processor after the next generation of apps proves too much for it? Or replace its stock camera with a third-party shooter that outclasses even what you'd get on an iPhone? Project Ara is an initiative devised by Google to develop an entirely modular smartphone with components that can easily be swapped out at any time. With the Ara, everything from the case and the display to the speaker and sensors will be completely customizable.
