Sometimes the most genius ideas are born out of pure frustration.
Amir Bassan-Eskenazi co-founded a company called Pixie that sells lightweight smart tabs to keep on your belongings - or pets - to avoid losing them, reported CNN Money.
The smart tabs, which he calls Pixies, are physical replicas of the location symbols from Google maps.
The Pixies work by triangulating where they are in relation to each other, so the more items that have pixies, the more data available to pinpoint an item's exact location through a smartphone app. The app can also alert you if you are leaving the house with a tagged something that's supposed to be with you - say, your phone charger.
