Modern Technology - Cool Tech for 2021

Amazon Echo Dot

With a new look and new sound, the Echo Dot delivers clear highs, dynamic mids, and deep bass for rich, detailed sound that automatically adapts to any room.
Voice control to stream your music and podcasts and Audible books, asking Alexa, making phone calls, and most importantly, a microphone off button that electronically disconnects the microphones, call contribute to this small yet mighty tech toy.

Amazon Echo Auto

It plays through your car’s speakers via auxiliary input or your smartphone’s Bluetooth connection.
With 8 microphones and far-field technology, Echo Auto can hear you over music, A/C, and road noise.
It’s connected to Audible, Amazon Music, Apple Music, Spotify, SiriusXM, Deezer and TuneIn.
It’s also designed for your privacy - You can press the microphone off button to electronically disconnect the microphones.

Video doorbell

The amount of items being brought to us is ever-increasing and to help ward off those pesky porch pirates, a video doorbell is a smart investment. Easily connected to your smartphone, you’ll see exactly who and what is at your front door, both wanted and unwanted.

Dash cam

Staying on the camera train, having a dash cam adds an extra layer of security and peace of mind in the unfortunate event of a collision. With distracted driving rates accelerating, a small investment today puts the brakes on the risk of you being charged with something you allegedly did or didn’t do on the road.

Fitness tracker

The majority of us have been working/learning from home since March. With the added stresses of adapting to our new world, our health needs to be a priority. It even tracks your sleep and connects to your smartphone.
Utilizing a fitness tracker can help keep us accountable and up to date on the progress we’re making.

Roomba

We live at home. Many of us work and learn from home. One of the last things we want to do is vacuum…at least that’s my case. Picking up a robot vacuum can do that chore for you while you’re working, eating, sleeping or out of the house. Many can be programmed and scheduled from your smart phone.

Osmo Pocket

The last stop on the camera train comes via the Osmo Pocket.  It can shoot 4K/60fps video at 100 Mbps, slow motion video at 1080p/120fps 4x, and photos at 12 MP with a pixel size of 1.55 μm.
Personal creativity (vlogs/video podcasts, videos, social media channels, movies, etc.) is ever climbing and with video being the preferred medium in today’s modern world, this small yet mighty tool opens up dozens of doors to up your video game and be discovered.

Smart home hub
Many of our homes have a variety of electronic devices that require separate apps to control. A smart home automation hub funnels all of those device apps into one app.

Your doorbell, security system, smart speaker lights, thermostat, locks, etc., can be programmed to sense when you’re coming home and react according to your inputs.
