Automated Glasses Cleaning Machine: I Can See Clearly Now, the Smudge is Gone

Water-Skier Controlled Tow Boat for Solo Show-Offs
It’s probably every water-skier’s (wet !) dream to have a remotely operated tow-boat. Although water-skiing normally requires at least two people – one to pilot the boat, and one to be pulled behind it, this thing will tow you around without needing anyone else.
