It is amazing to see the innovation and "futuristic" ideas that are coming up today. Almost all of the 25 products were things I had never heard of but would assume will become standards soon or in the not super distant future. the tools and building supplies for the most part seem like things you didn't realize you were missing but are such obvious ideas that none did before. For example, the deck gutter system thing...that is awesome and gives you so much space (so long as your deck has good room under it) and is such a simple idea. The one about recycled water though…that seems to be a bad idea but I trust that there are a lot of filtration systems. But I don’t love the idea of showering in water that someone else has already showered in. It is also funny to see the wide range of products that were selected from a helmet that measures rooms to a tool backpack, there is a wide range.
I looked at four of the products that they listed on the “Top 25” list including the Door-in-Door fridge, the several different types of fire places that can go easily into residential houses, the solar powered bathroom for 3rd world countries, and the virtual reality industrial hardhat. The one that I found most exciting and innovative was the industrial hardhat. It seems like up until this point, the VR gear industry has been excluded to the gaming and urban technologist market. If it can get a really good foothold in the industrial, or namely the military world, I think it might really have a chance of taking off as the next big technological change. Every so often a technology comes along that looks like it cam straight out of a sci fi movie, this is one of those. If it works as well as advertised, I think this could really revolutionize the way industrial work is done.
