Virtual reality is still a huge market, which most likely has a lot of growth and development still to come. However, so far VR headsets have been rather expensive. Enter the PlayStation VR, which at only $400 works with the Sony PlayStation 4 and offers millions a great VR experience.

Amazon has created a whole new type of personal assistant with the Amazon Echo. This smart speaker answers your questions and can also help you with several chores around the house, like turning off lights, calling a cab or ordering some pizza.

Who enjoys having a thermometer stuck in their mouth to get a temperature reading? No one does, really, especially a child who doesn’t feel well. While new methods have been created, the Arc InstaTemp makes taking a temperature a piece of cake with its infrared technology. Now you don’t even have to touch your forehead to get a reading. Just place it an inch away from the subject and you get an instant, accurate reading.
