Called Drop, it uses a range of sensors to track changes in the water's pH level, sanitation and temperature and sends these readings in real-time to an app

The app doesn't specifically highlight whether urine is present in the water because each person's urine has a different pH level. Instead the app is used as a guide. 

The concentration of the urine will also depend on the size of the pool, but the app lets users customise this to make the readings as accurate and sensitive as possible.

The UAV — unmanned aerial vehicle, commonly called a drone — is what researchers hope will pave the way for the future of agriculture

It came from above, hovering over the corn field, soaking up the light.

It saw things the farmers couldn’t: photosynthesis in the green leaves and heat radiating off arid soil.

SmarTap, which recently presented at Microsoft’s Think Next conference in Tel Aviv, tracks water consumption and sends the information to the cloud. It could be a rainmaker for hotels and laundry businesses

SmarTap allows you to pre-program your tap to be at the precise water temperature that you want. If you give your kids (or yourself) a bath, you can preset the temperature and amount of water you want to fill and walk away. When you return, the tap will have shut itself off. No more worrying if the water will burn your children’s sensitive skin.
