Know Where Is What You’re Looking for in a Large Store

Why?

You enter a large store, and it’s hard to know exactly where is what.

How?

There is the simple solution that unfortunately I never encounter: give a map at the entrance.
Another more sophisticated solution would be an app that identifies what store you’re in by your location, and automatically shows a map for that store. It can also give you a list of products or product types and when you select will show you where it is on the store map.

Make Your Cigarette and Other Tobacco Product’s Box a More Pleasant One

Why?

Nowadays when most governments seem to think we are all idiots, and it’s their job to protect us from our foolishness, we see more and more products with warnings on them. This is very much so with tobacco products.

How?

Print and distribute stickers the size of these warnings so that we can not just have a more attractive box than the one the government think we should see, but also support the cause of protecting our right to live our lives as we please.

3D Model of Your Teeth From a Panoramic X-Ray

Why?

To help patients visualize how their teeth look like and where the problems are.

How?

Have a software that takes the X-Ray and renders it in 3D, so the result looks less like a flat black and white photo of your teeth, and more like a color rendition of it. Colors can represent different conditions and facts.

One Way Steel Mesh to Protect Against Outside Intruders and Help You Escape From the Inside

Why?

On one hand, you would like the have protection against intruders. On the other hand, you don’t want to get stuck inside in a case you need to escape (for instance in case a fire breaks out.)

How?

Build a mesh from steel of small “joints” that only allow movement of this joint in on direction. A window could have such a mesh installed, and since the flexibility is only in the out direction, intruders could not go in because, from the outside, it would be stiff as steel. You would also need to build sensors into these joints to monitor contact. When you trough yourself at this mesh from the inside, these sensors will register the contact, and if enough of them register that (meaning there is a significant mass leaning on the mesh from the inside), a release mechanism will activate and allow you to escape. You could also build into the wall a slow cable release that – in case you are in a high building – would slowly descend you to the ground inside this mesh, helping you escape.

Get Paid to Create Your Most Successful Blog Posts

Why?

When you write your post you try to make it the best you can. The best headline, best content structure, best images and videos, etc. But you don’t know if it’s the best you can do.

How?

Create multiple versions of your blog post, test them all, publish the best, and sell the rest to other blogs. It’s more work but you will get the best performing post and get paid for doing all the extra work.
