The new invention can allow a person to travel from Beijing to New York City in just under 2 hours. "Impossible!" many claim, but it is indeed possible and plausible.

A knew technological advance has been made again, a robot, but this time, with facial expressions. Robots it seems, are becoming more and more life-like compared to humans. The purpose of this robot, is to make something that can interact with people, and help them. Many of the robots, called NEXI, are in production right now to be useful and helpful in working factories and other places that are in need of extra help. The NEXI's mechanically built arms can withhold 10 lbs and the plastic-like covering that surrounds the entire robot, can sense if a human comes in contact with it.
NEXI has many unique features as well including the following:

A new idea for a laptop has been made. The producers say that it could be "rolled up like a mat." This has brought much interest into consumers. The product would now make laptops and or tablets more convenient, and easier to travel with. When rolled up, the laptop can be carried on your shoulder with the convenience of a handle, or even stuffed into a small bag. When rolled all the way out, the machine is 17" and fully compatible. With just a raise at the end of the tablet, it transforms into a fully functional laptop. It has all the common features in a computer: LAN ports, USB ports, internal camera, keyboard; etc. The price has not yet been released, but will soon be thought of.
