I want to create a mobile phone application for those who don't want to waste time standing in line. One will have a possibility to check as well post line conditions with the app running on a mobile phone.

Why not create a new material for bone implants to resemble more accurately the geometry and stiffness of bone? The material is to be designed using a technique known as topology optimization, which forms a three-dimensional scaffold. Metal powder is melted into the desired shape with a laser, creating an open pore structure that can allow the transporting of nutrients through the implant.

My idea is to create sensory equipment enabling people to share hugs across cyberspace. The idea can be implemented with so-called "hug-shirt" and a teddy bear. The teddy bear will be fitted with sensors to detect when it is hugged by a person. The sensation will be transmitted to another person via a special jacket fitted with heated copper wires.

I want to have a smart fence which can sense the difference between the rustling of leaves or a person skulking around the area. There will be a small low power device to be attached to a fence or other object or just be placed on the ground. It will use seismic sensors to distinguish between different types of movements. An alert will be sent wirelessly to the command center under certain conditions.

Robot controlled by Americas Army 3 Game Software (AA3) that can be deployed anywhere in the world. The master of each robot is a real soldier controlling his robot far away from him while he's inside his office. To avoid ROE, this robot will have identification using MAC address bar coded on top of his head, on his back, on his left and right shoulder and on his right chest. This robot is equipped with assigned weapon (e.g. M16 M4 rifle, 50 Cal, Body armor, GPS, etc...). Here's how:...

For many, the sound of the drill is a big cause of anxiety when it comes to visiting the dentist. I have an idea to create a device which will cancel out the noise of a dentist's drill helping people overcome their fear of a check-up. This new device will allow patients to listen to music on an MP3 player, while the sound of the drill will be blanked out. Patients will still be able to hear the dentist's voice because not all sounds are to be filtered out. The device will be...

Why not create a desktop generator that uses electricity to create hydrogen from water? This generator will be used for special cartridges charging. Each cartridge is supposed to contain 12 watt-hours of stored energy, the equivalent of ten AA batteries.

My idea is to create a sleeping mask which not only blocks out the light but also wakes the wearer with a programmable sunrise. Sounds really cool :) An LED substrate sewn into the inside of the mask will make the magic happen. It will begin its glow about a half hour before the user chosen waking time.

The best defense against common communicable diseases is prevention. Door knobs and handles are covered with a huge amount of microbes so why not create self-steralizaing door handles? I suggest creating a door handle that continuously sterilizes itself with a UV light, only taking a break when you actually use it. There will be some kind of switch in the handle's frame to toggle the sanitizing illumination on and off.

A lot of times, we are stuck out in public without our phone chargers handy. This leaves us vulnerable especially when we need to make an important call. This idea about a twirling battery is really cool. The concept is to simply twirl the cell phone battery around a finger a few times for a quick bit of juice to send a text or make a call. 130 twirls will give you approximately two minutes of talking time. The same idea could also be applied to batteries for other devices.
