This helpful bit of software isn’t exactly a gadget, but more of a gadget controller. The Home Control Assistant gives you the ability to control many devices in your home such as lighting and appliances through one easy to use application.

Very simply, the software communicates with items in your house that are plugged into receivers that are compatible with the software. The receivers are then plugged into a normal wall plug. The software requires your computer to be integrated with your home’s wiring, and thus can control any item that is attached to a receiver.

This gadget would be perfect for anyone taking a trip or is just forgetful and owns a pet. The Automatic Pet Feeder is programmable to certain times so your pet can be automatically fed when you choose.

There are 8 compartments in the circular device, each able to hold about 96 ounces of food. This is perfect for setting 8 days of feeding times or more than once a day for a number of days.

I think this gadget would be really neat for outdoor gettogethers or providing unoffensive light where you need it. The Glow Stone by day looks like a normal stone lying in your yard, however by night it becomes a motion-sensing, glowing stone.

The Glow Stone is equipped with a motion sensor on one side of it which can detect motion within 12 feet so you have to make sure you have it pointing towards the most active area. It only will attempt to turn on when it is dark out, and only is activated for 15-30 seconds when it detects movement (unless of course there’s constant movement) so it is very energy efficient.
