2. Hand held digital projector, this is also another great innovation in the field of technology for the use of education. Now with wireless internet and computers, it was about time that a successor to the bulky roof projectors. Hand held laser projectors provide computer image resizing any where any time. No matter how far the signal is, its already focused and can viewed on any flat surface. For example PE teachers can show students videos of techniques on the gym wall by using this connect to a laptop.

3. FaceVision TouchCam N1
This is a high definition webcam that works at HD quality and at very fast and smooth quality of picture. If it is supplied with a fast computer and internet it can prove to be a very useful tool in the project I will be working in class in, what I call "wireless school". It can be used in programs like skype and can be used through video conferencing for classed through the internet, where a student can sit at home, and still attend class.

4. Toyota delivery robot home helper
This robot uses advanced GPS systems to configure maps around buildings, and is used to carry items between people, and uses AI and cameras to make it's way around people and objects. It can be used in class as a way of carrying things between administration and staff, and can make this simple and time wasting proccess human less, and can make sure teachers and students, as well as other staff can stay focused on their classes and/or administrative jobs. For example the secretary can give a paper to the robot it will take it the photocopier, alert a near by person, and can get the paper photocopied, and return it the secretary or take it to another place.
