9 Gift Ideas For Your Tech Obsessed Friends: That They Will Actually Use

A great gift for any tech obsessed person! It's a great security or pet cam (What did my dog do all day? Did my dog walker come today? Is my bike safe?), or set up a timelapse during your Halloween party and share a short video of all the shenanigans that went down.

Wyze Cam is a 1080p smart home camera that you can set up anywhere there is wifi. Customers can pull up a live stream view of the camera anytime day or night. The cameras have night vision and motion and sound detection, including the ability to detect the sound patterns of smoke and CO monitor alarms, and can send you a notification when an event occurs. You can add a microSD card to record 24/7 (a 32GB card holds 2-3 days of footage), or record only when sound or motion occurs. It even includes 14-day cloud storage of alert videos for free (most other cameras charge for this service).

It's the new adjustable height seat for people who are using sit-stand desks. It easily adjusts to keep you standing longer when you want to stand, but also turns into a full seat when you're ready to sit. It's a great product for anyone who's kids are spending too much time slumped in front of the computer while working, or gaming. It's an amazing gift for someone who has a back issue and needs to spend more time out of their chair. It's a gift that can help change someone's life.

The Luminoodle makes your space and TV pop! Back-lighting your TV makes the perceived contrast higher as well as making the colors truer. It does this by giving your brain a steady reference for true white. It also can reduce eyestrain, because the steady light can decrease the amount and frequency your eyes dilate while watching a screen.
