(Q1, $149.99)
ArchelisFX ExoskeletonHopefully well all be back in Las Vegas for CES in January 2022. Hopefully, well be able to buy one of these admittedly ungainly a nerdy exoskeleton suit so we can stay on our feet on the show floor for 16 hours a day without requiring several post-show chiropractic appointments. Initially designed for factory workers and doctors, the archelisFX enables wearers to walk and bend their knees freely and to sit or rest anywhere while technically standing. The suit is all mechanical no power needed. Archelis execs say the company is working on a consumer version, hopefully one we can wear under our clothes a year from now at the LVCC. (Q1, $1,000)

But this is not merely digital snake oil. The Fl nose light is actually a medical technology called photobiomodulation. Fluo Labs is a medical device company and its been researching this allergy alleviation solution for 15 years. A recent clinical test yielded a 31% improvement over baseline, better than antihistamines or other drugs, with no known side effects. Two more trials are planned as the company works toward FDA to make Fl a welcome and potentially revolutionary over-the-counter solutions for seasonal allergy congestion, itching, runny nose and sneezing. (Q4, <$100)
