BUSINESS SUPPLEMENT“Bits n Bytes”STEVE DICKENSGADGETS TO AMUSE YOUDURING THE PANDEMIC!There’s nothingquite like the excitementof buyinga brand newgadget. Openingthe box, pulling itout, slowly peelingoff the protectivestickers… it’salways a thrillingmoment for any techfan, so I’ve gathereda few gadgetshere to help get youthrough the Covidboredom!TrinoXO TeeAn odour-fighting T-shirt madeof recycled crab. Yes, you readthat right. This unassuming T-shirtis made of chitosan, a material obtainedfrom the exoskeletons ofshellfish.It’s one of the most abundant ingredientson the planet, so its creators,Allbirds, decided to use it tomake some of its clothing line. Accordingto Allbirds, this special blendalso has odour-fighting properties(it presumably has a surface that’shard for smelly bacteria to colonise),which hopefully means you have towash it less, and it’ll last longer.Dyson Purifier Hot+CoolFormaldehydeWhile many of us know air pollutionharms our health, we may haveoverlooked what’s happening insideour homes. It turns out that cookingand cleaning are filling our homes withpollutants at higher concentrations thanthose outside. Even our furniture isoff-gassing formaldehyde – a chemicalused in its production.So what can you do? Well, youcould just reject society and retreat tothe woods (we’ve considered it a fewtimes this year), but if that’s not an option,you may want to consider an airpurifier.The latest version of Dyson’s PurifierHot+Cool is kitted out with filters totackle the particles invading our home’sair, including formaldehyde. It also hasloads of sensors to provide insight intowhat’s generating the most pollution(cooking, in our case, made the airquality ‘severe’), and it doubles as aneffective fan or heater.one stop serviceIn these competitive times, the company that innovates andnimbly adapts to the changing business landscape, stays aheadof the pack.

You see what thedrone sees.It’s a user-friendly version ofwhat drone-racing pilots use in competitions.The drone itselfcan move at a maxspeed of 140km/h(87mph) and canreach 0-60mph injust two seconds.It has a max rangeof 10km (6 miles),but you’ll need aspotter who cankeep an eye outfor people or obstructionsbelowwhile you fly.The tech ispretty power hungry,so you’ll geta maximum of 25minutes out of aflight, but it will beone helluva ride.Sony FX3Sony’s FX3 is the smallest, cheapestcinema camera the company hasever made. It’s built for filmmakers,rather than photographers, so it canhandle recording ultra HD video at120fps for long periods.It comes bundled with a handlethat’s ideal for shooting from low anglesand it adds extra sockets for pluggingin different audio inputs. There’salso in-body image stabilisation forwhen you’re “running and gunning”.The camera will also play nicewith Sony’s yet-to-be-released Airpeakdrone. At 715g, it’s a bit too bulky tofit in your pocket, but it’s light enoughand small enough to take wherever yougo.
