ViW boasts a dual lens and provides a 50% wider field of view than conventional webcams. It does this without distorting or "distorting" the image in any way.

Although it is made of silicone, it does not look "artificial" and although it offers a whole set of keys with a relatively high structure, it measures only 25 centimeters.

We are used to the fact that billiard tables are rectangular in shape, they are distinguished only by size, among which the snooker table is the largest. But regardless of the size of the table, its width is always equal to half the length. Well, mathematician Alex Bellos took a different approach and created the Loop pool table, a variation of the ellipse pool table with only one hole and only three balls.

You've probably all heard of pyrography. If you haven't heard it, you've certainly seen it in practice. Namely, it is wood (can also be leather or cork) decorated with burnt patterns, which today are mostly created with the help of a device similar to a soldering iron (with a hard tip or a tip made of wire). Febo, on the other hand, returns to nature and instead of electricity (which heats the tip of the tool) uses a magnifying glass and the sun's rays, which make it possible to draw with the sun.
