Its 77 pieces provide endless hours of fun and activities straight out of the box using coding cards, detachable arms, interactive obstacles, kids' coding games, and more.

FOR A FLAWLESS LOOK
YouCam Makeup (Perfect Corp.) continues to revolutionize beauty with its powerful augmented reality technology and artificial intelligence. Users can take a photo of the brand's makeup look in the real world, and YouCam's AI software will automatically recognize the look and match it with the virtual look. 

FOR HEALTHIER PETS
Petrics Smart Pet Bed (Petrics) is the first of its kind with sensors that track, analyze, and recommend optimal health solutions unique to each pet. Its companion app recommends healthier food options based on each pet's personalized needs like breed-specific health risks, age, activity levels and pre-existing medical conditions through any computer, mobile device or connected home product.

FOR IMMERSIVE FUN
MERGE 6DoF Blaster (Merge VR) merges the digital world with the real world using sophisticated positional tracking technology, for the most immersive gameplay ever experienced on a mobile device.
