Magic at the table
The U-food device from the firm Cnudde lets plates float and turn like a ufo! It works through the interaction of 2 negative and positive magnets that can be placed in a table. Great show element!

A new foam material that drains out water immediately. De fabric is made of recycled pvc reinforced with nylon. The water drains through the microscopic tiny holes and the pillows can aigain be used just five minutes after a rain shower.
This is a fully automated toilet. When you enter the bathroom the lid rises and with a flick of your foot you determine whether the seat has to rise or not. Before you sit down, the seat and feet warmers have already done their work. For that little bit of entertainement, a mp3/radio is integrated into the toilet. It plays a preset playlist or a radio channel. When you are finished, the sprinkler and dryer take care of the rest.
This stainless steal coffeebean makes sure the coffee is always on the right temperature. The coffeebean has temperature controlling material inside which absorbs the heat of the coffee and releases it slowly. Therefore it cools the coffee down when it’s too hot and reheats it when the coffee gets to cold.
The vacation period is coming up again and apart from all the preparation, comes another challenge: the big SIM card exchange with family and friends. Because of the extraordinary (roaming) costs that come with a SIM card from ‘back home’, it is cheaper to call with local cards. If your relatives can’t provide you with the right card(s), a newly bought card is one of the best value-for-money buys you can do on your holiday. Mostly it even pays off to buy an extra phone as well, especially if you return to the country on a regular basis or stay for more than a month.
Wouldn’t it be very nice if you could save all this fuzz and lend a card, or even a phone upon your arrival?! And wouldn’t it be very easy to have such a service at your hotel? The phone in the hotel rooms is only used for a wake-up call or room service, but imagine the possibilities of a ‘mobile hotel phone’. The ideal win-win situation whereas the guest can call much cheaper, the hotelier provides an extra service and can even make last minute offers or send (important) messages.
The introduction costs of a concept like this are acceptable, hotel owners can even start a test with cheap prepaid SIM cards. I’m sure you will gain extra service points from your guests and the media, a nice instrument for free publicity.

SocialStay is a platform for hotels for building, managing and growing a custom mobile environment. SocialStay lets hotels create their own branded mobile apps in minutes. These apps are fully customizable and also automatically integrated with several social media. Hotels can easily notify the guests of discounts or other related special offers, feature as well a “wall” and a “Who’s Here?” section to help guests to connect with each other.
The paper phone uses elnk technology. This is electric paper and is used in e-readers. The phone is fully flexible. The elnk screen is only black and white, and very slow, the good thing is a long battery capacity. The electronic paper is also usable on clothes and they are working on a bracelet, the “Snaplet”, watch the movie.
The new ‘Presto e la Carte’, like the Otoucho which we are familiar with in the Netherlands, is a tablet which is used in restaurants. Through this tablet, guests can watch the menu, ordering dishes, pay the check, but as well play games during the waiting and writing reviews at the end of the dinnerparty. This tablet is not meant as replacement for the human staff, but rather compliment a pre-existing service.
This vending machine was spotted in Japan. Each compartiment holds a net with 10 to 12 fresh eggs, which costs around $3,-. The eggs are from a nearby farmer who fills the machine with the fresh eggs.
The Social Vending machine from Pepsi is connected to a computer network. People can buy a drink like on a normal machine, but they can give away a drink as well. Type the name and telephone number of the recipient on the touch screen and add a text message or personal video. The gift can be picked up at the nearest Social Vending machine.
