IFA 2019 might show a lot of consumer electronic devices like new phones, TVs, and smartwatches. However, the event also had the appearance of a slew of other cool gadgets that can change people’s lives for the better.

Here are the five most interesting pieces of tech that we spotted at this year’s IFA.

Medical Exoskeleton For People Suffering From Spinal Injuries

People who have lost the ability to walk due to spinal cord injury or other medical conditions like multiple sclerosis or cerebral palsy have a long and strenuous recovering time ahead of them. This exoskeleton developed by a Russia-based company called ExoAtlet can help these patients in their rehabilitation process.

The device can be adjusted according to the need of each patient, and it will help to support the person’s weight when they practice walking. The exoskeleton has a control system that can imitate the way the patient walks for a more natural-looking posture.

This device has already been used in some hospitals in Russia and South Korea. ExoAtlet is currently waiting for FDA’s clearance to offer this product in the U.S.

Exploring The Sea With This Community-Controlled Underwater Drone

The Aalto Explorer project will enable people all over the world to see what is in the sea by attaching a 360° camera to a drone what operates under the water.

People can see the live data that drone gathers, and they can also steer the device to the direction they want and learn more about the water conditions.

If you have a VR-enabled device, these data can be seen in AR so that you have a more realistic experience with the ocean.

Smart Bike Helmet That Keeps You Safe On The Road

This year’s IFA saw the introduction of a slew of smart devices, from cushions to kettles. But one of the most useful tech items is by far the Livall smart bike helmet.

It has sensors to measure the light level around the wearer and will turn on the bike’s light accordingly so that other vehicles can see you in the dark.

The helmet has an interface which you can attach to the handle of the bike so that when you want to turn left or right, the helmet will give out signals for you.

Above each ear, there is a Bluetooth speaker so that you can take phone calls or hear voice instruction totally hand-free.

Adjust This Gaming Controller In Any Way You Want

A customizable console controller is something lots of gamers want, and Plyy prototype is exactly that. It offers some sticky buttons of different sizes and analog sticks. Users can arrange them on a mat or two paddles in the way they want.

Automated Vegetable Planter For People Without A Green Thumb To Grow Their Own Vegetable

Growing your own vegetables is a great way to have fresh food and help the environment. Since not everyone has a green thumb, this task proves to be difficult for many people.

Plantui planter is just the device for those who are not so confident in their ability to grow anything. It is a hydroponic capsule that can feed, water, and provide the plants with light. It can even expand when the trees grow.

The seeds for the planter comes in a pod with all the nutrients they ever need. All you have to do next is to put the pod to the planter. This is the solution for people who have no room to grow vegetable in the old ways, or no access to natural sunlight.
