The Tacchissi /ta'kisi/ is a new design of high heel that transforms into and flat and back again<br />
with a quick, easy motion. This innovative shoe allows frequent travelers and constant walkers to<br />
wear just one pair of shoes, instead of commuting in one and carrying the other. There are no<br />
extra parts that you need to carry or worry about. They provide a simple transition from flat to<br />
heel. Once the shoe is strapped on, the lever in the back can be easily pulled up and the heel will<br />
pop out and lock into place. You are then ready to go! When you realize, your feet are starting to<br />
hurt, you pull the lever up again, and push the heel in to lock back underneath the shoe. The<br />
Tacchissi can also be an interesting addition to any party outfit and provides a solution to those<br />
who was the versatility of a flat and the elegance of a heel all in one shoe.<br />

The Health Can is a smart watering can that helps users solve issues relating to their houseplants.<br />
The design consists of a watering can with an integrated camera and computer, along with a base<br />
station for charging and dispensing different types of additives for plant health. Not only can it<br />
diagnose different pests on houseplants, but it can also treat the plant and provide the user with a<br />
helpful tool to keep their plant healthy.<br />
