From Stylish Premium Wearables to Haute Couture Emoticons

— April 2, 2017 — Tech
These April 2017 tech innovations range from haute couture emoticons to workout-augmenting gadgets that are designed to help users keep better track of fitness goals while ensuring they are doing the best exercises for their body.

When it comes to health and wellness, these April 2017 tech products include examples like from-tracking runner wearables to baby bath water monitors that ensure a safe and comfortable temperature for infants while giving parents peace of mind.

When examining the month's convenient home products that also offer security or customization features, standouts include precision coffee makers -- PERK's latest coffee machine is fully automated in its design -- along with solar panel security cameras that detect potential intruders while simultaneously cutting down on energy consumption and costs in the process.
