When it comes to new technology, we’re always on the edge of our seats. Brands of all sizes are able to throw their hat in the ring thanks to crowdfunding.

This not only popularizes a single product, but it brings the median knowledge about technology among the masses up a notch. With this, innovation accelerates even faster.
Just a few years ago, a smart assistant’s limited capabilities could tell us basic information such as the weather. Now, smart assistants can learn from our preferences and thereby further automate processes for us. And we can’t get enough.
While a robot takeover is highly unlikely, all of this innovation begs the question: what could possibly come next? Before we get ahead of ourselves, let’s talk about the here and now. Just in 2019, we’ve seen exceptionally fascinating innovation across all fields of technology. Here are the most amazing new gadgets so far this year.
