Claudia Pisano, an Italian mother has enabled his disabled
son, Riccardo, to walk despite the severe brain damage
through inventing RiccaVita™ passive physical rehabili-
tation device. RiccaVita™ provides a rhythmic, reciprocal
and repetitive means of whole-body movement and helps
to stretch out the diaphragm, increases muscle mass and
flexibility especially for compromised limbs, promotes
massaging and circulation to all internal organs, increases
range of motion, reduces spasticity, counteracts stress
and depression, diminishes the frequency of spasms, im-
proves respiratory systems, circulation, balance, coordi-
nation, digestive bowel movement, and blood flow, and
prevents contractures as well as pressure sores.

Hind Hobeika, from Lebanon, whose new product, Insta-
beat®, is a revolutionary swimming device that can seam-
lessly and instantaneously track an athlete’s workout.
Mounted to any pair of swimming goggles, it displays con-
veniently, Google Glass-like, your heartbeat, calories, and
the number of laps and flips turns, giving real-time feed-
back and syncing to your mobile app or computer to track
progress over time.
Little surprise that her target goal of raising $35,000 was
more than twice surpassed in the first days of her cam-
paign. Contributors came from the U.S., Europe, Asia, and
the Middle East.

And Gil Soon Lee, from South Korea, who has developed
AIRVITA products that act as an air purifier and active
deodorizer that removes 99.9% of bacteria, viruses, and
molds in the home. In addition, the technology does so
without the use of filters thus making it very user-friendly
to operate significantly extending the product shelf life
and without incurring ongoing consumable costs. Its com-
pact size minimizes visual spacing, the wonderful design
enhances room styling and the direct plug-in maximizes
physical space usage.
