Seemingly inevitable, this technology exists everywhere, but it is in Japan that it is designed to actually work for people. Known as Osaifu-Keitai, this technology allows people to pay for goods and services with their phones thanks to the software they carry.

Taking a shower or a bath is a must for everyone, so any technology that can improve this process seems like a fantastic idea.

Unfortunately, it is hard to find outside of Japan.

Quite possibly the most daring product to appear on this list is artificial nails, made for those who want their hands to stand out. They are the same as acrylic nails, but the main difference is that the nails have LED antennas that communicate with your phone via an RF signal.

Technology that most people consider necessary, navigation systems have saved us from the danger of getting lost. However, in Japan, these inventions have been taken to a much more advanced and amazing level.

In addition, the navigator can warn you about traffic jams in some areas, as it monitors specific especially busy highways.

The feeling of freedom that almost anyone can enjoy while singing along to their favorite song with all their might is wonderful.

It will also help you hear your clear voice, allowing you to practice and improve your singing.
