This is an extension for a pusher handlebar. It will save the backs of tall caretakers and caretakers who use a "buggy-board" (a skateboard for a toddler that clicks onto a stroller for when you have a second child, the toddler rides on the board in front of the mothers feet). It needs to fit a variety of handlebars of different brands (needs to slide out to different sizes and have attachments that fit a range of handlebar sizes), needs to be lightweight (so as not to affect the...

You always hear people saying, "In the future there will be flying cars!!" Well I think that idea is ridiculous. Why re-invent a flying machine when it would be much more simple to make a planes street legal. We already have compact airplanes with the ability to fold the wings making them more compact.

In todays world, BIG BROTHER is becoming more and more prominent. Why hasn't it been implemented to protect people's rights as well as help law enforcement? This would be an optional upgrade for people, and it would be at their control, so that they could still have privacy. Here's how it would work. Cameras located at the front and rear of the vehicle would always run while the car was turned on. A third camera and a microphone would be docked inside the car. The third cam. and...

This is actually an idea that was briefly used by Ford in the 1956 station wagon but was dropped and I don't think it has been used since. It is perfectly possible to literally cook with your car. When you are driving, your engine heats up to a very high temperature and on a long drive it effectively creates a perfect oven environment for food. This can be done anyway - all you need to do is to wrap your food tightly in tin foil and somehow fix it to the engine. It works especially well...

Since you can't add layers of materials inside the glass or run lines of heated metal to heat a wind shield, you must use your inside window defroster. If you had a hot wiper blade that didn't crack your window you could use the cold temperature wiper fluid and then swish it around with heated wiper blades for maximum speed of defrost and then you can turn your defroster to a different setting to heat the inside to help defrost the rest of the windows.

In a previous entry I wrote about a design for a "rubber band car", But after watching the documentery "Who killed the electric car?" (a movie I highly recommend!), I think I have a much more practical idea: It is currently possible to make an electric car that can run for at least 150 kilometers on a single charge and be recharged at home or anywhere using a standard electrical outlet in as little as a few hours. These EV1 created by GM in the mid 90's were one of a few of these cars...

You will propably have heard that the "Electronic Stability Control" will be installed in most of the 2007 model cars and trucks, to serve as a standard safety feature to boot-up the vehicle safety rate, and it is promised that it lowers your car insurance rate as well. But wait, the ASWS would even go further and be the best additional safety feature for both, driver and public. I want every new car in the future be equipped with the ASWS device which prevents speeding motorists from...

Use the ever expanding Sahara desert to construct a 13.5 mile tall pyramid of sand composite with a 1/2 square mile launch pad at the top. It would require the movement of around 3,200 cubic miles of sand that the 3.5 million square mile desert could easily supply. After initial construction costs for space launch would become minimal and could be used for centuries to come.

I would like to create a vehicle a/c system that, instead of using the energy from the vehicle's motor to turn the a/c pump, has an electric DC motor to turn the pump, reducing the drag on the engine and increasing fuel economy. The a/c compressor would get mounted near the fire wall along with the DC motor, then connect them and run power to the DC motor. Splice into the alternator for recharge of an auxillary battery, if needed, or get a high output alternator and battery, to...

Use state of the art facial recognition system to register users of a car. - This can be done with a resonably priced camera, and in-car-CPU. The car would not start unless a registered user operates the car. In security parlence, this can be a strong biometrics (second factor authentication) for the car. This can in additional to the key that we may be currently using. System can be built for registration, addition, deletion, title transfer etc. If the car is supected to be...
