See What’s Cooking

Why?

It’s sometimes hard to see what’s the state of the dish in the oven, but you don’t want to open it to get a better look.

How?

An oven with a wireless (wifi) cam showing what’s going on inside, that you can check from your smartphone.

World Bridges Webcam Network With Online Selfie Wall

Why?

A view from a bridge- all around the world 🙂

How?

Have webcams set up by volunteer representatives (in return for exposure online) all around the world, so anyone can see what’s going on any place where there are pedestrian bridges, the view, as well as get their pictures taken with the background view showing. The software detects when someone is looking into the webcam and smiling, and then it takes their photo and automatically publishes it on an online wall of photos like it from all over the world.

Track Speeding Cars With Cams to Determine Intent

Why?

Sometimes you go over the speed limit for a short time, when overtaking another car for instance. It would be beneficial and just not to get a speeding ticket when this happens.

How?

Use multiple traffic cams that measure multiple speeds over a certain length of the road, instead of only one. This would enable the discovery of true speeders as opposed to an occasional over the limit occurrence.

Augmented Reality Memories

Why?

We all like to remember happy moments and loved one who are not with us anymore.

How?

An app that you can “feed” with photos of people and happy moments of the past. Then when you point the app’s live cam at the spot where that memory took place (like the sofa), it will augment the live view with the people from that memory in the photo. You can pan left and right, and it will be almost as if you are looking at the live event from the past.
