Roman Bielkin invented a device capable of monitoring health state on real time basis. One needs to stick the patch with adhesive electrodes to a chest (under heart), and it will record the main biometric data – pulse, electrocardiogram, respiratory rate, and body temperature. The collected information is sent to Watsons Bluemix cloud service via user’s smartphone, and then the data goes to relatives’ phones as instant messages and weekly reports. The patch also has an alarm button to urgently inform about health issues. Cardiomo can also be used as a fitness tracker because the device provides its user with information about the quantity of steps, body position, sleep quality and activity data.

Hushme by ARTKB is a personal acoustic device that protects speech privacy in open space environment. Then headset resembles ordinary headphones but when you put it to your mouth nobody hears what you’re chatting about on the phone. It masks your voice with different sounds.

Not only can you choose these ones but also upload your own sounds as well as control volume etc. Currently Hushme is being tested, so it isn’t on sale.
