24 New Gadgets Every Parent Needs to See

Avatar Mind is hoping that iPal will become your children's best friend. A social robot that not only keeps track of a child's vitals and calls emergency services in the event of an emergency, the three-and-a-half-foot tall iPal interacts with kids and educates them via a tablet embedded on its chest. The tablet is loaded with educational programs, and can be used to sing, dance, and navigate with kids. A built-in camera and Wi-Fi/Bluetooth connectivity allows parents to keep an eye on children from anywhere and interact with their kids remotely. iPal will be available by the middle of 2017 for $1,500.
