1
these clippers are from the future you pick a haircut
2
that you want
3
and they can apparently give it to you automatically i'm really sorry i i just had one
4
so he's got to put this fade band on
5
and then the clippers have a whole bunch of sensors
6
that figure out how far they've moved from that band
7
and they can adjust the blade length
8
so all i've got to do is tilt it to keep this ball in the middle oh is
9
that a fate if it makes you feel any better this is apparently impossible for me to screw up.
10
Because if I tilt it at the wrong angle,
11
it will just retract the blades. Do you know what?
12
That's a hell of a lot better than I'd be able to do on my own.
13
And we are just getting started.
14
Because I've spent three months sourcing all the most futuristic tech on the planet, from gadgets that feel like they're from 2030 to stuff that shouldn't exist until 2050.
15
I'm talking a band that changes your body's temperature, like an AC unit, massagers that work your muscles autonomously, a mouthpiece that lets you control your computer with your tongue,
16
and even a pocket camera that transforms into a tracking drone.
17
The only question is, are these companies actually building the future that we want?
18
To find out, let's jump straight to 2030, where apparently we're all going to be wearing solar hats.
19
So when sunlight hits a normal hat, about 10 % of that energy is reflected, and about 90 % of it is absorbed as heat into your head.
20
Well, that sucks.
21
So a solar hat still has that 10 % reflection, but now only 66 % becomes heat.
22
Because the solar cells are able to turn the remaining 24
23
% of this energy directly into usable electricity moment of truth it works i mean it might take a
24
while to charge but what an insanely convenient form factor just redirecting the energy
25
that was previously going into cooking my scalp into charging my
26
phone how much is it going to charge well it's on one percent right now let's leave it plugged in
27
and come back in the future to find out the The future, the only place where modular tech has ever worked.
28
So I'm curious if the Kadas MindPro modular PC can break the curse.
29
So this tiny little thing is the main computer.
30
Kind of mad that they've crammed in a high -end laptop chip, 64 gigs of RAM and 2 terabytes of storage in the thing.
31
And the specs actually used to be even higher.
32
We just can't have nice things anymore in a memory crisis.
33
But the key thing that they've actually invented here is the MindLink high -speed interface, a connection that lets you snap this computer onto any of the Mind family of accessories.
34
Like, let's say you want a laptop -style setup.
35
It works, and the screen looks great.
36
The keyboard feels laptop quality.
37
The trackpad is also laptop quality, unfortunately.
38
But now, it's time for me to go to work.
39
because generally when i'm at the office i like to lock in on the big screen
40
so i got my pc on me now i stick
41
that onto the mind dock this adds usb and hdmi port
42
so you can have multiple monitors
43
if you wanted as well as its own speakers volume knob
44
and a fingerprint reader also do you notice how it instantly
45
resumed even though i was moving it between workstations well that's
46
because it has a tiny little backup battery inside they can keep it on standby all right that was productive So now,
47
having accomplished absolutely nothing in my workday, let's say I want to sack off and game.
48
And that is where the mind graphics comes in, containing a desktop class RTX 5060 Ti graphics card, which is clearly powerful.
49
I mean, this looks sick and feels very equivalent to a PS5 Pro's level of performance.
50
So everything this company has dreamed of actually works.
51
I would say that if you are their ideal customer
52
and you have these three specific zones where you do these
53
three specific types of things then this whole system is like magic
54
but what if you want to do something on the go you've got your pc
55
but you can't do anything without a mains power source
56
and all of your screens are in different locations besides to buy all of these different pieces
57
that we're using to build these different workstations you're looking at like four
58
and a half grand with
59
that much money wouldn't you just buy the most powerful laptop in the world
60
that has all of this functionality built in not to mention a hinge that supports the screen without a kickstand
61
And the modular curse continues.
62
But what if, instead of building a brain that needs a screen, you built something that uses the screen you already carry everywhere?
63
Well, that's the idea behind the Kyra camera, and it feels a couple of years further into the future.
64
Long story short, it's a professional mirrorless camera
65
that just magsafes onto the back of your phone it's not the first to do this
66
but they're saying it's the best
67
obviously so it connects with direct wi -fi
68
which gives us the live camera feed on the phone well that's a good start it's got tap to focus
69
and you can swap out lenses because it uses a standardized micro four -thirds mount
70
so you are definitely not short of shooting options
71
and to be fair you could actually get away with
72
that quality wise it's a little softer looking than the pro cameras we normally shoot our videos with
73
but it's much closer to that than it is a smartphone.
74
For reference this is what that same shot would look like if you took it on an iPhone 18 Pro Max.
75
Now this is still in beta and you can tell.
76
You should be able to properly track subjects with focus but it's really finicky right now and keeps losing it.
77
The baked in audio sounds really bad
78
because it's only picking up sound from one of the phone's microphones and you're covering it when you hold the thing.
79
Plus Plus, for a gadget solely designed to make things look better, Kyra's app is not particularly pretty.
80
But the thing they're marketing as the key differentiator here is actually the intelligence, because they bundled in generative AI to edit the stuff you just shot without even leaving the app.
81
Let's give it a shot, shall we?
82
Change my ridiculous outfit to make me look a lot cooler.
83
Oh, well, it's giving me trousers, it's giving me a black t -shirt.
84
it.
85
It's still hideous, but it's a marked improvement.
86
This is powerful AI because it's using Gemini's Nano Banana, but I don't know, man.
87
Buying a professional camera body specifically to take more authentically high quality shots only to then run it through generative AI.
88
It feels a bit to me like going to a Michelin star restaurant, ordering their signature dish and then lathering it in ketchup.
89
If you're going to do that, then why not just take a smartphone photo, run it through regenerative AI
90
and ask it to make it look like it was shot on one of these because it's definitely capable of that.
91
But if the Kyra lets you fake it till you make it as a photographer
92
then the LiberLive C2 stringless guitar lets you make it as a fake musician.
93
I'm noticing a bit of a trend with the future.
94
So obviously I'm not cool enough to play guitar.
95
Lucky for me I don't have to to play this
96
because the strings have been replaced here with buttons
97
and Guitar Hero style paddles that you just push down
98
so just like a real guitar depending on how far up
99
the neck my left hand goes the strumming is going to
100
create different notes oh yeah plus that's a built -in speaker
101
and a really good one too
102
and then you use this wheel to change the key in
103
which you're playing but then unlike a real guitar you can make this action sound like anything
104
so one strum can lead to multiple notes one after the
105
other oh it's even responsive to how hard you're strumming i can change the style of guitar
106
that i want it to sound like for example warm electric
107
that's even better
108
but you can also just straight up turn it into other
109
instruments entirely there's even a piano mode oh my god it's
110
so relaxing all right i think the time has come
111
because using this app you can also play along to different songs all right three two one oh my god
112
so the neck is lighting up the colors i need to play this is very guitar hero
113
it's actually producing something amazing i think we need to get this metronome in
114
oh hey tell me that this is not the greatest rendition of twinkle twinkle little star that you have ever heard.
115
I feel amazing.
116
Now, there's definitely an argument to be made that as much as this looks like the real deal, it's not teaching you how to play a real musical instrument, that it's just a cool -looking musical toy.
117
But if all you're after is just some no -strings -attached fun, you want to sound like you know what you're doing without actually needing to, then this is a ridiculously customizable,
118
immensely polished way to do that.
119
It's a real head, shoulders, knees, and toes kind of day today, because that's my hands taken care of, my head's still busy charging my phone,
120
and the next few gadgets are about to work their way around the entire rest of my body.
121
Because we've all got our ways of controlling temperature, right?
122
Light a fire, crank the aircon, or hell, put on a jacket.
123
But what if you could just press a button on your wrist with the Ember Wave 2?
124
So you put it on kind of like a backwards watch.
125
It already looked odd enough when it was the right way up.
126
There goes my final traces of street cred, I guess.
127
But the reason it goes there is because have you ever heard of
128
that cooling tip about applying ice to the inside of your wrist to make your whole body feel cooler?
129
Well, the reason people say that is
130
because this area has some of the thinnest skin
131
and also some of the highest density of temperature -sensitive nerve endings called thermoreceptors.
132
And so the idea is this not watch sits there
133
and uses a thermoelectric heat pump to either move heat towards or away from those receptors.
134
With this button, it's actually really hot right now with this ridiculous jacket, so I'm going to crank it to its lowest temperature.
135
Okay, my wrist is extremely cold, but is the rest of my body falling in temperature?
136
Kind of is.
137
I can feel on my wrist flashes of hot and cold, I guess as new blood is being pumped towards that area.
138
But I feel more comfortable than I did a minute ago.
139
And I quite like the fact that it's almost fixing the overheating problem on a fundamental level, as opposed to the temporary relief from getting a fan and just blowing it at your face.
140
Oh wow, you can actually see the giant cool patch that's left behind on my wrist.
141
So in its current stage, this is only going to make small differences to your overall body temperature.
142
But the idea of each person having their own individual climate control is definitely an idea
143
that I would like to see more of.
144
All right, now that we've looked after our wrists, we might as well move further down with the air zoom hyperslides.
145
And these sound very much up my feet.
146
They're a collaboration between Nike, who's providing the air zoom cushioning, and then Hyperice.
147
You know that company making high -tech sports recovery gear?
148
Shout out to Marquez and his long boots.
149
And they're the ones providing this magnetic recovery pod.
150
So the idea is that the pod snaps onto there.
151
You pick how hot you want it to get from one to three and what level of vibration you want.
152
We are good to go.
153
Oh, the Hyperice logo glowing through.
154
That is sick.
155
Oh, this is really strange.
156
First of all, they are louder than I expected, so you couldn't be working in an office while using these.
157
The cushioning is incredible.
158
I love that my feet don't slip out.
159
They feel really firmly planted inside the sliders.
160
I would say, as both a slider and a massage enthusiast, that these are really close to my dream product.
161
The only thing I would change is that the massage feels a little bit too vibratey, as opposed to the really satisfying kneading of a person giving you a foot massage.
162
I will be keeping these, though.
163
But honestly, with the amount of time that I spend hunched over a desk, it's my back that needs the attention more than my feet.
164
Enter the RioFit A1, the world's first hands -free, AI -powered automatic foam roller.
165
Wow, this looks like a weapon.
166
And it kind of functions like one too.
167
The thing's got 84 massage nodes, which are designed to attack every stress point in your back, while thankfully avoiding the very fragile spine area.
168
Three, two, one, do me.
169
Oh, I think it's using the friction of my body to pull itself up.
170
Ah, my back.
171
Oh, that feels good.
172
That's good.
173
That is good, right?
174
I guess the roller becomes the rollie.
175
a click that time i feel like this is either going to cost physiotherapists their jobs
176
or schmucks like me their backs it's very powerful
177
but i gotta say it is incredibly efficient
178
that it's covering the entire width of your body every time it passes up
179
and down oh hell yeah i like the bar area oh oh Ooh, I feel great.
180
It feels like it's done a 60 minutes massage worth of pressure relief in about five.
181
The thing can even create a personalized stiffness map to be able to then target the parts of your body
182
that need it most.
183
The most exciting part is this is not the only physiotherapy robot in this video.
184
Because how do you one up a robotic roller?
185
three robotic rollers this is therabot
186
and apparently it's supposed to be able to travel up
187
and down your leg to massage entirely on its own now this is a pre -production unit
188
so it might be a little janky or it just goes completely rogue
189
and breaks my entire leg off oh so
190
when you turn it on it expands to its max size and then slowly contracts until it's around your leg properly
191
whoa oh my god what
192
that's tight it's got serious clamping force look at
193
that look at the way my leg moves around it ow
194
that's insane look at the way it jumps across my knee
195
and it's not sliding down my leg either it's got enough
196
friction to properly adhere we're about to do max intensity now Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
197
no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
198
no. turn
199
it down less strength whoa hell yeah okay i mean i'm not going to be maxing
200
that out again in a hurry
201
but what other form factor are you going to be getting
202
a 360 degree leg massage with zero hands required this literally feels like someone hacked the timeline
203
and brought something back
204
that wasn't even meant to exist right now i'm telling you
205
i think i can see all three of these in my future okay it's finally time to check the charge
206
so it's been just under two hours drisha's prediction is it's
207
charged 12 i'm not massively optimistic we've had pretty bad experiences
208
with solar charging 42 42 you're kidding me that's the future i want
209
so apparently Dyson is no longer satisfied with merely cleaning your house.
210
In the future, they want to clean inside you with a toothbrush.
211
Oh my goodness, this looks like it literally just landed from space.
212
Yeah, I'm not actually sure me and my earthling brain know how to get inside.
213
Oh, right.
214
That'll do it.
215
Wow.
216
This is the camera jet.
217
An electric toothbrush, a flosser, and a camera.
218
All in one product.
219
I feel like Steve Jobs right now.
220
They're saying that the camera here analyzes 28 images per second, so that while you're brushing your teeth, it'll identify the gaps between them and target them with the flosser at the same time.
221
oh it's definitely firing it's actually counting how many auto jets it's shot very aggressive sounding
222
but it kind of feels like you're getting shot with a cap gun every two seconds well
223
if you apply too much pressure it just keeps beeping
224
and then stops and then if i just try scrubbing like this
225
which is bad technique it gives me a different kind of warning okay
226
so three minutes and 70 auto jets later that feels pretty amazing actually and then when you're done button,
227
you click it back into its space pod thing to send it home, you press this button on top, wow, it refills the cleaning fluid.
228
It's just, I think they rushed it out the gate, because they're clearly having hardware issues.
229
Like the first one we bought with these broke within 10 seconds of the first clean.
230
And from everything we can find, they seem to be issuing some sort of soft recall from stalls.
231
But at some point in the future, this is going to improve people's lives, so excited.
232
Now that it's all clean in there, let's stick something even more futuristic in my gob.
233
This is the mouth pad.
234
It's kind of like a retainer, but one that's going to turn the roof of my mouth into a control pad
235
that I touch with my tongue, and then...
236
Whoa.
237
That's insane.
238
not sure you could quite get away with this as a stealth operation
239
but look at the software it's showing what it's picking up as i move my tongue around
240
and it does feel like 95 as precise as a finger trackpad
241
so let's say we're using the opera browser our sponsor to
242
learn more about this thing can i activate opera ai just using my tongue
243
so navigate to the corner oh yes i can left click
244
is really simple you just tap the roof of your mouth
245
but right click is kind of weird you have to do a sort of micro suck
246
but it is
247
so cool seeing how this software is picking up all of these micro mouth movements in real time
248
so let's ask the ai is the mouth pad also compatible with smartphones oh yes it is ios
249
and android also can we just take in for a second
250
that i'm controlling my entire mac using just my mouth real hands -free kind of day
251
but there is another layer to this mouth pad because it also has head tracking thanks to inbuilt gyro sensors.
252
I've set mine up so that as I'm moving my head, the cursor follows.
253
It really does work.
254
Okay, let's go to the top.
255
So this is Opera's new vertical tabs, which actually makes a lot of sense
256
because let's say you're diving into some research and you want to be able to see all the titles of the tabs.
257
Now you can.
258
And then I can also just scroll by holding the top
259
or bottom of the trackpad
260
but yeah you can start your next project with opera linked in the description i'm
261
so curious how this translates to a game that's crazy
262
so i can cycle through my items by scrolling
263
and i can look around with my head i'm sure i could even map it
264
so that my cursor actually moves him
265
okay i mean obviously this has some very serious benefits to people with disabilities but the execution is good enough that
266
I'm also just wondering
267
if this could be used by nerds who like to get a lot done
268
and love the idea of bringing an extra appendage into play.
269
We're now down to the most bleeding -edge, state -of -the -art sounding gadgets.
270
It's 20 .50 and you've just bought yourself a Hover Air Versa.
271
So it's a pocket action camera.
272
It's got a rotating screen to help you record in both portrait and landscape.
273
That's pretty cool with a three axes gimbal baked inside.
274
There's nothing extraordinary.
275
And the quality is fine.
276
It's 4K.
277
It's a decent sized sensor.
278
It's basically smartphone quality video, but with above smartphone quality stabilization.
279
So what on earth is it doing in this video?
280
Well, it flies.
281
You can literally buy a flight kit, which includes a set of propellers that will literally just magnetically attach onto the camera.
282
You pick the mode that you want to take off in.
283
Inception mode oh wow
284
that is cool i think i'm just going to do follow then in theory i should just be able to
285
and then without a controller it's just going to follow me with ai tracking what
286
oh jesus christ get away from me he actually navigated through
287
that tiny little sliver in the fence
288
and then this is inception mode oh my god
289
that is crazy cool you can literally see the camera slowly rotating on the gimbal as it's flying towards me
290
and in theory
291
if you just stick your hand underneath i love the future
292
the last thing i want to try is orbit mode
293
so you set your radius you set how fast you want it to go
294
so it's moving into position all right screw it finger guns oh my god that's fast
295
i honestly thought this whole attaching detaching camera thing would be ultra gimmicky
296
but this is not just ludicrously cool it's useful
297
but now we have reached the single most ridiculously futuristic product i've maybe ever seen the roborock saros z70
298
Oh, whoops.
299
That's what I get for trying to unbox aesthetically.
300
Let's get into it.
301
So we've all seen Robovacs at this point, and a lot of them are clever enough now to figure out
302
when objects are in front of them and clean around them.
303
But how about a Robovac that can instead pick those things up
304
and move them out of its path with a retractable robotic arm?
305
So what if I just...
306
Oh, wow.
307
I can actually see the live feed from its camera.
308
And there's a remote control.
309
Damn, look at the suspension on you.
310
It's actually way more handy to be able to drive something like this around than a remote control car, because you can actually see what needs cleaning.
311
Oh, it actually recognized it as footwear.
312
It says confidence level 93%.
313
Okay, go sort.
314
What is it going to do?
315
Come on.
316
I still don't quite believe it's going to do what it says it's going to do.
317
Oh my god.
318
It's happening.
319
Oh my god.
320
This is insane.
321
It's not going to have enough clamping force, surely.
322
So where are you going to take that?
323
I can't quite wrap my head around just how complex that is to pull off.
324
Let you think about the fact that it's got to know the shoe.
325
It's got to realize how it's got to orient itself.
326
It's got to then pincer at just the right point in the shoe to pick it up properly and reliably.
327
And then it's put it back in our shoe zone.
328
I'm speechless.
329
And you might look at that and think, oh, that's really gimmicky.
330
You know, I can just put my shoe back in five seconds.
331
But the number of times I've had a robot vacuum cleaner stop on me, and the reason it stopped is because something has got in its way, is uncountable so that actually solves a very real problem
332
that these things sometimes have in such a cool way charging
333
yeah you deserve it buddy turns out there's a lot of companies building the future that I want

Произношение, на которое стоит обратить внимание
Говорящий использует 71 сокращённых и редуцированных форм, например I'm, you're, they're. Произносите их коротко, так, как слышите.
- Звуки «th»: underneath /ˌʌndɚˈniθ/, width /ˈwɪtθ/, toothbrush /ˈtuːθ.bɹʌʃ/
- Звуки «sh» и «zh»: massage /məˈsɑ(d)ʒ/, shoe /ˈʃu/, friction /ˈfɹɪkʃən/, inception /ɪnˈsɛpʃən/, cushion /ˈkʊʃən/
- Длинные слова — следите за ударением: ridiculous /ɹɪˈdɪk.jə.ləs/, automobile /ˈɔː.tə.məˌbil/, ridiculously /ɹɪˈdɪk.jə.ləs.li/, temporary /ˈtɛmp(əˌɹ)ɛɹi/, electricity /ɪˌlɛkˈtɹɪsɪti/
Звуки, трудные для русскоязычных:
- /w/ — губы округлены, это не /v/: whoa /woʊ/, microwave /ˈmaɪkɹoʊˌweɪv/, hardware /ˈhɑɹdˌwɛɹ/, width /ˈwɪtθ/, backward /ˈbækwɚd/
- /h/ — лёгкий выдох, а не русское «х»: hardware /ˈhɑɹdˌwɛɹ/, hurry /ˈhʌ.ɹi/
- Звонкие согласные в конце слова — не оглушайте их: massage /məˈsɑ(d)ʒ/, microwave /ˈmaɪkɹoʊˌweɪv/, tab /tæb/, sensitive /ˈsɛn.sɪt.ɪv/, android /ˈænˌdɹɔɪd/

Что такое техника Shadowing?
Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
