Photos in flight (pictured)
ROVA, a new flying drone launched by Sydney-based IoT Group, allows you to take images from angles that were not possible before. The device is launched and controlled through an app on your phone and features obstacle-avoidance technology as well as enclosed propellers to help avoid accidents. For an extra layer of protection, four bumpers can be attached to the polycarbonate frame. You can save pictures directly to your device, store them on the included MicroSD card or share them via social media with the touch of a button.

Tech savvy traveler
Charge your devices in transit with 1 Voice’s Weekender Garment Bag, which can be zipped closed to convert into a duffle bag. Just attach the canvas strap and you’re ready to go. In either mode, the luggage has more than enough room to store all of your travel essentials. And, the built-in Lithium-polymer battery provides enough power to charge your smartphone or tablet three to six times.
