The car interior preheater will help take the chill out of winter driving, allowing drivers to warm up their car's interior without needing to start the engine. The heater will be designed to sit on the dashboard of the car, where its two heat vents will be tilted to blow hot air into the car or onto the windshield. Powered by rechargeable batteries, it will be set to come on at a specific time or can be activated by a remote control. The heater can be easily removed from...

The idea is to develop a new sensor integrated steering wheel able to provide a quick vital sign check for the driver and easy to integrate into mass produced vehicles. While there have been many new systems for monitoring stresses while driving, most of them are too complex for commercial use. The simpler steering wheel system will be able to monitor blood pressure and stress levels through reflected light and electric conductance. The driver will need only have his hands on the...

Car accidents are stressful enough, but a special application can help take some of the burden off by providing the information drivers need to document an accident. The app will come with a checklist and on-the-scene accident tools, guiding the user through each step that will need to occur in the moments after an accident. It will provide easy access to emergency numbers, a GPS to help record the accident's location, a flashlight, and a voice recorder. It also will also...

The idea is to develop a new wireless braking system for bicycles. The system will consist of a pressure sensor and a sending unit mounted to the handlebar. Squeezing the handlebar grip will activate the sensor, which will send a wireless signal that will be relayed to the actuator, activating the disc brake. The brakes will grip more firmly the harder the sensor grip is squeezed.

The idea is to develop a Bluetooth communications system for bicyclists which will make coordinating on the trail much easier. The device will be made up of an arm mounted voice module and a control module that will mount on the wrist or handlebar. The earphones and microphone will be hard wired into the voice module, and the bikers will communicate by speaking into the helmet mounted ear pieces.

The first front center airbag will be designed to protect front occupants in the event of a side impact crash. The airbag will deploy form the right side of the driver's seat, absorbing the impact energy between the driver and the passenger in the front. The airbag will also function as a restraint if the driver is the only person in the front of the vehicle. The front center airbag will be designed to work with other airbags to form a more complete vehicle occupant restraint...

Self-steering tractors that can travel the fields with the same skill as trained drivers may soon make farms more efficient. The tractor will rely on a GPS system and other sensors to maintain its positional awareness. Specific sensors calibrated for different terrains will allow the tractor to traverse a variety of areas, and the 'smart steering' system will be able to calculate the optimal speed and turning radius.

The idea is to develop wireless Car-Baby monitoring system with audio and night vision to be used to view children in the car while driving. It will be possible to say goodbye to those mirrors that don't work and say hello to safety and comfort while driving. Cell phones and texting while driving is illegal and dangerous...but what about turning your head to view your child in the backseat? With such a system you will provide attention being safe.

Why not create a new mini rearview camera and monitor system that will allow riders to have a 360 degree view of their surroundings. Riders will be able to monitor their rear view through the 3.5 inch monitor attached to the handlebars. A cord will connect the monitor to a CMOS video camera on the rear seatpost, and a lithium battery will power the device for up to 5 hours. For added protection at night, a ring of 10 LED lights will surround the camera, and will begin flashing when...

The idea is to create a device that will prevent young children from undoing their seatbelts while riding in vehicles. The device will use a lever that will slip over the buckle, preventing it from being released by small children.
