AirBar
Do you know someone that uses a laptop that doesn’t have a touchscreen, but who could really benefit from one? Today, there is AirBar. It is a USB run device that is placed under the display of any 13.3-inch, 14-inch, and 15.6-inch laptop to give the user touchscreen capabilities.
People may not NEED a touchscreen, but they sure can help. Currently, the AirBar officially works with Windows 10 and Chrome OS laptops, but does have at least basic functionality on macOS devices. You can get one for around $59.99 online. Check out http://air.bar for more information.

Ember Temperature Control Mug
The modern office is filled with coffee lovers, and one of the coolest gadgets we’ve seen this year is produced by Ember. It is a smart coffee mug. You can set the temperature of your favorite hot beverage (from 120ºF-to-145ºF) and it will maintain that temperature on the mug or via the associated Ember app. The mug itself is not hot to the touch and lasts for up to 80 minutes uncharged. For a few dollars extra it comes with a charging coaster that will keep the beverage as hot as you need it, as long as you need it.
