Unveiling Pool Cleaning 3.0 with WYBOT S3

/in /by

Experience the future of pool maintenance with the WYBOT S3.

During the cleaning process,  WYBOT S3 maps and positions within your pool to plan the most efficient cleaning path, ensuring precise tracking of the cleaning route. Its real-time locating systems, coupled with cloud connectivity, enable users to monitor the cleaning progress in real-time via their mobile devices. Additionally, the remote control function allows for targeted cleaning of specific areas, ensuring comprehensive coverage and meticulous attention to detail.

Prioritizing thorough cleaning, the WYBOT S3 ensures all debris is effectively collected. Post-cleaning, the robot autonomously returns to its docking station for charging, transferring the collected debris to an onshore dustbin. This automated internal cleaning process eliminates the need for human intervention, making pool maintenance effortless.

  1. Self-Docking & Self-Emptying: Wybot S3 returns to its docking station after each cycle, transferring debris to a larger dock-based bin, reducing user intervention to once a month.
  2. Solar-Assisted Charging: Solar charging adds cleaning time after a full day of sunlight. A traditional DC charging option is also available.
  3. Advanced 3D Mapping: With gyroscopic sensors and sonar, the S3 maps the pool’s layout, ensuring complete coverage, even in irregularly shaped pools.
  4. Smart Debris Detection: AI-driven vision identifies debris hotspots, focusing cleaning where it’s needed most.

/in /by
Press once, and history is made. Plaud brings Plaud Note Pro – the world’s first AI note-taker enabling real-time human-AI alignment.

Plaud Note Pro isn’t just another device; it’s a leap forward. For the first time, professionals can “press to highlight” during a call or meeting, signaling to AI what matters most in real-time. That means key insights and decisions are captured as they happen, not guessed after the fact.
Wrapped in a credit-card-sized frame, it delivers:
  • Studio-quality audio up to 16.4 ft away with 4 MEMS mics.
  • Smart Dual Mode Recording that auto-detects meetings vs. phone calls.
  • Up to 50 hours of recording on one charge.
The Sneak Preview
But hardware is only half the story. Alongside Plaud Note Pro comes Plaud Intelligence 3.0, rolling out in October with a brand-new app design and features for all Plaud users:
  • Multimodal Input: capture audio, text, images, and highlights for richer context.
  • Multidimensional Summaries: analyze conversations from multiple angles for deeper insights.
  • Ask Plaud: AI-powered Q&A with traceable answers, smart suggestions, and searchable history.
Think of it as a future where AI doesn’t just listen – it understands, organizes, and aligns with you. Visit plaud.ai for more information!

1.7 Million Power Banks Recalled Since March: How SolidSafe™ Solves the Problem

/in /by

Since March 2025, more than 1.7 million power banks have been recalled for overheating, swelling, smoke, or fire. The cause is not random. As manufacturers cram more capacity into thinner designs, the flammable liquid electrolyte inside lithium-ion cells is pushed past its limits. When stressed by heat, damage, or overcharging, that liquid can vaporize, leak, and ignite instantly.

BMX (Better Mobile eXperience) is addressing the crisis with SolidSafe™, engineered with solid-state cells for safer, longer-lasting power. By significantly reducing the liquid content found in standard lithium batteries, SolidSafe’s solid-state chemistry lowers fire risk and extends durability while still delivering the fast performance users expect. In testing, lithium packs ignited under drilling and nail penetration while SolidSafe cells kept working with no thermal reaction.

The SolidSafe™ lineup includes three magnetic models: 5K, 10K, and 10K + microSD. All feature 15W Qi2 wireless and USB-C charging in slim, airline-compliant sizes, with LED displays, integrated lanyard cables, and snap-on convenience.

After raising over six figures on Kickstarter and earning a Projects We Love badge, BMX now makes its IFA debut with SolidSafe™, bringing proven safety and smarter charging to a market ready for change.

AUKEY Unveils MagFusion Ark, the World’s First Modular True Wireless Charger, at IFA 2025

/in /by

Global wireless charging leader AUKEY today unveiled MagFusion Ark, the world’s first modular true wireless charger, at IFA 2025. 

MagFusion Ark features a base that supports up to three devices, combined with three detachable spheres, for a total of six charging points. Each module is built on the Qi2.2 wireless charging standard and delivers up to 25W fast charging, making it easy to power up to six smartphones simultaneously—ideal for households, shared living spaces, and office environments.

Unlike conventional wireless chargers limited to Tx-only (transmitting only), MagFusion Ark integrates both Rx (receiving) and Tx (transmitting), making it the world’s first true wireless charger. When docked, the spheres wirelessly recharge from the base while simultaneously charging devices placed on them. When detached, they transform into portable 6700 mAh power banks, enabling a “drop-to-charge, grab-to-go” experience.

Each sphere is also equipped with a PD 3.0 30W USB-C port for bidirectional charging, features an active cooling system to prevent overheating and protect battery health, and can be used as a magnetic stand for hands-free viewing 

MagFusion Ark will be available in Q1 2026. In addition to the flagship three-device base with three detachable spheres, AUKEY will offer one-device and two-device base options, with spheres also sold separately to meet personalized charging needs.
