The next
cool gadget is the dishwasher of the future – the Siemens Zeolith. Let’s start with the design which is looks better than any other dishwasher you have ever seen. The gadget is designed to recycle the humidity left over from the wash cycle. This feature is made with the help of zeolites – they are moisture absorbing particles that absorb the moisture from the air inside the dishwasher and they also release stored up heat into the dishwasher.
The idea and the design is very simple: the zeolites absorb the moisture of the air and then they released the heat into the water and this action make the machine to use less power and results in a faster load cycle. The main idea was to make a machine that saves energy and Siemens did this with a great design and a clever idea. The Siemens Zeolith is available in Europe, but not in United States.
Another
cool gadget is the card that monitors how much money you have spend. The Live Checking Card is just a concept, but it can become reality in the near future.

The idea is great for the owner, but is it greater for thieves because a large amount spend on the card means that the owner has a big bank account and this thing could motivate the thief to steel the card.
