2. Dishes that clean themselves.
Developed by researchers at KTH
Royal Institute of Technology in
Stockholm, these dishes have a special
coating that “repels water, dirt, and oil
almost like a magnet, so you don’t
have to use anything to clean it off,”
says Hanna Billqvist, one of the
designers. This coating already exists
in other forms, chiefly in paint and
certain fabrics, but this is the first time
it's planned to be food safe.

3. Ultra-Ever Dry is a superhydrophobic (water) and oleophobic (hydrocarbons)
coating that will completely repel almost any liquid. Ultra-Ever Dry uses proprietary
nanotechnology to coat an object and create a barrier of air on its surface. This
barrier repels water, oil and other liquids unlike any coating seen before. The other
breakthrough associated with Ultra-Ever Dry is the superior coating adherence and
abrasion resistance allowing it to be used in all kinds of applications where durability
is required. Keep your stuff Ever Dry and neverwet!

Imagine a future in which a device connected to a computer can print a solid object. A
future in which we can have tangible goods as well as intangible services delivered to
our desktops or highstreet shops over the Internet.
The following provides an overview of 3D printing technologies and their present and
likely future application.

5. EyeNetra is another one. Here's the key quote:
As it turns out, phones could prove the ideal device for conducting eye tests.

7. Use an umbrella in windy weather, and you know how pointless the umbrella becomes.
A relatively new umbrella, called Senz stormproof umbrella, can withstand wind
speeds of 100+ km/h.

12. Money shredder alarm clock
Put the $100 bill in the night before and place
it in the hallway. If you don't turn it off, the
money turns into cute little bits of packing
paper. This is an ultimate solution for those,
who don't wake up with the alarm.

19. Overade – Foldable Bike Helmet
Overade is an innovative solution that
makes wearing and carrying around a
bicycle helmet so much
more convenient.

22. The Xstat syringe.
Hemorrhage is a leading cause of
death on the battlefield. The
Xstat syringe can seal a gunshot
wound in 15 seconds by injecting
the soldier with special sponges.

23. To address the problem of landmines in Afghanistan - there are 10 million unexploded
still there - this entrepreneur from Afghanistan, Massoud Hassani , has developed a
wind-driven "Mine Kafon" deminer;
Now if it rolls over a land mine, it will destroy itself and the landmine in the same time.
It’s made from bamboo and biodegradable plastics. It has also a GPS chip integrated in
it. So you can follow its steps on the website. You can see were it went, where are they
safest paths to walk on and how many land mines are destroyed on that area. You can
see the teaser video at:

24. Armstar Bodyguard 9XI-HD01
The flexible arm, which is armored with
Kevlar and hard plastic, contains a
rechargeable lithium battery pack that
powers an "electronic deterrent" device
built into the arm's artificial skin.
All the user has to do is pull a pin, and an
assailant who grabs his or her arm is going
to get zapped with electricity. The
Bodyguard is also equipped with a bright
LED flash-light, an HD camera capable of
transmitting pictures (great for selfies whilst
battering a mugger) , and a charging slot
into which an iPhone apparently fits nicely.
This was patented as "wearable shield and
self-defense device," is designed to be a
shield, a non-lethal weapon and a
communications device in one.

25. LifeStraw is a water filter designed to be used by one person to filter water so
that they may safely drink it. It filters a maximum of 1000 litres of water, enough
for one person for one year

26. For 1 in 6 people, access to water requires hard work: hours of walking, waiting in line
and heavy lifting.The time spent fulfilling this basic need keeps many children out of
school and prevents women from carrying out all the domestic and income
generating work for which they are responsible.
By giving people easier access to potable water, the WaterWheel frees up valuable
time, and in the process, removes barriers that prevent children from going to school
and empowers women to engage in more productive activities.

27. "Load carrier for labour" is a great design
innovation. It can be used as a backpack,
as an overhead load carrier and as a
trolley.
Designed and created by Vikram Dinubhai
Panchal of NID Ahmedabad, it costs just
Rs 300 (Less than 6 USD).
If scaled up, it can definitely save a lot of
backaches!

47. The Baby Mop, a one-piece outfit with built-in
mops on the arms and legs, lets your kids
clean the floors as they crawl around getting
their exercise.

59. If you've gone camping before,
you've probably used a propane
cooker or propane lantern. It works,
but propane gives off toxic gases
when burned and you have to bring
propane canisters with you - heavy,
flammable, and what if you run out?
Biolite CampStove solves this
problem. Just use twigs and wood
chips you find anywhere, and you
have clean-burning fire and
electricity.

60. Water Pipe Generates Electricity Every
Time It Is Used
Korean designer Ryan Jongwoo Choi has
come up with an eco-friendly solution
for generating energy that can be built
into everyday habitats. The ES Pipe:
Waterwheel can be installed between
existing pipes, and uses a number of
mini turbines to generate power from
the flowing water. Every time someone
turns on the tap, energy is generated,
which can be stored in light bulbs
placed in the pipe. These bulbs can then
be taken out at night to light an area
with the accumulated energy.

61. GravityLight uses weight to illuminate without batteries
or fuel
GravityLight has built an LED lamp that just might lift the burden. As the name
implies, a weight (usually the very bag that the lamp ships in) generates
electricity through natural force: the few seconds it takes to lift the weight can
generate 30 minutes of light without ever replacing a battery or fuel supply.

66. Miracle Fruit
When eaten, a glycoprotein found in the berry
binds to the consumer's taste buds effectively
blocking the sour receptors on the tongue.
Consequently, tasters can experience flavors
from many foods such as lemons, limes,
tomatoes, hot sauce, goat cheese and vinegar
normal circumstances wouldn't allow.
Miracle fruit is most often used recreationally
at "flavor-tripping parties," but there have
been pushes to offer the fruit to diabetics and
cancer patients whose medical conditions limit
their gastronomic experiences.
The fruit or even tablets containing the
molecule miraculin are easily procured online
from multiple sources
