But the Ripples device, the art of drawing on the surface of coffee, raises the level even higher, because with the help of 3D technology and inkjet printers, it creates extremely precise creations and everything our heart desires.

Remember the iPod? The music player that revolutionized music sales and publishing? Recently, Apple removed the mentioned category from the website and hid it under the Apple Music tab, but it seems that even in the age of smartphones, which have eaten away most of its users, they are not yet to be discarded.

We can never do too much for the safety of cyclists when they share space with cars, so there is a welcome innovation called Cyclee, a bicycle projector that is mounted on the seat post and projects light signs on the back of the cyclist to alert drivers to actions cyclist. The possibility of an accident for a cyclist is 26 to 48 times higher than for a driver of a personal vehicle, so cyclists must be even more careful.

Ikea surprises again. After furniture that enables wireless charging, as part of the promotion of its home equipment, it decided on the daring project of the world's first wireless bungee jump.

Just yesterday, these seemed like something from the future, but luxury car maker Lexus surprised and apparently managed to figure out how to defy gravity with a board. Slide is probably not a prank.
