Meaningful Tattoos
Denise O’Connell had a scar that she wanted to cover up but was uncomfortable putting a tattoo needle anywhere near her scar. With necessity being the mother of invention, she and her close friend, Amanda Hudson decided to create TuckTats. The company is now a thriving business making realistic looking temporary tattoos in North America. Each tattoo is designed to specifically cover or adorn surgical scars left by c-sections, mastectomies, reconstruction, augmentation and other scars. Colourful, tastefully and easy to apply and remove.

Seeing is believing
People check their phones nearly 200 times a day, adding up to roughly 130 feet of hand movement, and that can be awkward in important moments. The Halliday smart glasses unveiled at this year’s consumer electronics show have an invisible display; that is, the display is not built into the lens but rather integrated into the frame. This is made possible by using what the company calls the world’s smallest optical module. Despite its 3.6mm size, the display provides users with a field of view similar to that of a 3.5-inch screen. With Halliday, a simple glance gives you all key information—designed to be more efficient and comfortable for some than using a phone in busy or private situations.
