The SideSqueeze is an Android app that mimics the Edge Sense feature found on HTC U11 and Pixel 2 handsets. If you ask me about one thing I love the most about HTC’s 2017 flagship, the first feature that would come to my mind is going to be the Edge Sense technology. This feature lets you perform an action just by squeezing along the edges of the smartphone. Though that sounds a bit gimmicky, it turned out to be one of the unique selling points of the HTC U11. The feature then made its way to the Google Pixel 2…

Here is a sneak peek at what Arduino powered interactive hair extensions will look like. Technology is changing the way we interact with things. For the most part, it’s pretty predictable — like smartwatches, AR glasses, and stuff — but what you’re going to see next will make you feel so cringy that you’ll think for yourself “That’s enough Internet for me today”.
