The future has arrived

1 Segway Go Kart Pro II. Roll along at a maximum speed of close to 43 kilometres per hour. Detach the handlebars to use the floor panel as a floating hoverboard. Roll it into the house, park it in front of the TV, and it becomes a tiny racing sim. It's compatible with most major consoles and games and has full 360 haptic feedback. It's what Richie Rich would have if he lived in 2024.

2 Clicks keyboard case.

Clicks is the first creator keyboard for the iPhone. It a little physical QWERTY keyboard that attaches to the bottom of the phone, leaving the screen free. More screen, more shortcuts, more space for apps and content. Best for those who miss the clickety-clack of the physical Blackberry or their hipster Remington.

3 Evie ring. Movano Health's Evie ring is designed for women wearers and tracks their heart rate, menstrual cycle, sleep quality, moods, steps and movement. No need to wear a smartwatch to bed or carry the phone on a walk. It costs $269 and comes in gold, rose gold and silver. It will need a subscription when it releases outside the US. But can your family heirlooms do this?

4 Beta Volt BV 100 battery.
