AMAZING NEW INVENTIONS
Every year, more and more amazing things are invented. Here are three of our favourites for this year.
A. Fukuda’s Automatic Door
Can you imagine a door that fits around your body as you walk through it? Fukuda’s Automatic Door was designed in Japan by an inventor named Rikiya Fukuda. It automatically indentifies movement and only opens just enough to match the shape of the person or object coming through. So, what are the advantages? It saves energy by helping to keep the same temperature in a room. It can also prevent dirt and other materials from being carried inside. As well as people, the Automatic Door works for small objects, like packages delivered to a post office, or for larger things, such as a car coming through a garage door.
=>c. It’s a device that knows when you are coming.
B. The Hand Roll Piano
Traveling musicians will be happy with this invention. The Hand Roll Piano was invented by the Japanese company Yamano Music. What makes it different is that it can be rolled up like a blanket. This makes it easier to carry and easier to store. The keyboard is 100 cm long but weighs just 1 kg. It has 61 very thin keys and is made of rubber. It’s convenient to carry, but it’s also a great instrument. The piano can be played for up to 15 hours on standard batteries. It has more than 100 sounds and its own speaker.
