Monarch
Braille is a system of raised dots (点). It is of great help to the blind. Since braille textbooks wear out quickly and take much time to produce, the APH Monarch takes the place of them. It can translate text into braille.
(Continued Table)
Figure 03
Figure 03 is a robot which is shaped like a person. This high-tech helper can work in business and do chores at home. For example, it folds clothes and loads the dishwasher. It may be in some homes in 2026.

Atlas is a network of weather balloons. It helps us to predict bad weather and keep people safe. With the help of it, we can know temperature and wind speed. Atlas makes an AI model of the information to produce better weather reports.
ChompSaw
ChompSaw is a tool for kids to “cut”. It doesn’t really cut. It punches (打孔) lots of little holes. So there’s no way to hurt your fingers. ChompSaw works on cardboard and other materials, such as paper and fabric (布料).
