YubiKey for iOS
https://www.yubico.com/product/yubikey-5ci

https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-4-model-b/

A $50 desktop computer? Yes please. The Raspberry Pi created and defined a new era of DIY computing and now the fourth generation wants to conquer the desktop too. It's not quite there, but with 4GB of RAM and support for dual 4K displays, it's tantalizingly close. And it's plenty powerful enough to handle whatever DIY project you throw at it..

https://www.dji.com/robomaster-s1

DJI took some time off building drones to create the coolest robotic vehicle we've tested. Designed for robotics competitions, the Robomaster S1 is fun to build and even more fun to program and drive. More of a STEM project than a laser-shooting, remote-controlled car, it is still a laser-shooting robot ready to do battle with other drivers.

Peek & Push
https://stellarfactory.com/shop/games/peek-and-push
This 2-player strategy game taps is little like playing dominoes blindfolded. You can peek to see which tiles are where, and then keep track of them as you and your opponent "push" them around the board. Create a set or run before your opponent does, and you win.
