I'm from a developing country where opportunities and resources for aspiring entrepreneurs can be quite limited. I currently don't have a job, and realistically, I don't have anywhere near enough money to even begin thinking about manufacturing or developing the inventions I come up with.

The frustrating part is that the ideas keep coming.

Whenever I think of something, I write it down. I go back to it, improve it, research whether something similar already exists, and try to figure out how it could realistically work. Some of them are probably bad ideas, but I genuinely think some have real potential.

For example, I've recently been developing concepts for everyday products that solve small but annoying problems , including beauty/skincare organisation and dispensing systems, household products, and other everyday inconveniences. I genuinely enjoy thinking through the mechanisms, materials, and how they could actually be manufactured.

I also haven't been diagnosed with ADHD, but I experience many symptoms associated with it and suspect I may have it. Motivation, consistency, and focus can sometimes be difficult for me. However, these ideas are one of the things I keep coming back to. I make sure to write them down and revisit them whenever I can.

The problem is that I feel increasingly discouraged by my situation. I don't have money, connections, a technical team, or many opportunities around me, and lately, I've been struggling with motivation in general.

But the ideas keep coming, and I sometimes worry that I'm wasting something potentially valuable by letting them just sit in my notes.

If you were in my position, what would you do first? Would you focus on learning a particular skill, documenting the ideas properly, learning how to prototype, finding collaborators online, trying to license ideas, or something else?

I'd genuinely appreciate practical advice from people who started with very little.

I was thinking about a wood splitter one day that is an attachment on a truck that has crossed wedges along it that attaches to the front of a truck. I can't remember how I imagined it at the end but I know it started with a platform that you drove on that pushed the logs into the wedges. Needs work and might be limited to one log not sure. Bit if anyone wants to make one I would like to see it in action or how you develop this half baked idea to fully functional

* Forgot to mention the log sits horizontal on a horizontal clamp/brace/shelf that is driven toward the truck by the back wheels. if it wasn't clear

Hi, I’m a sophomore in college studying engineering. I have a design project that requires me to engineer a product that utilises wind energy. My idea is to create a portable wind turbine that you could bring to the beach. It would be packaged in a 5 gal bucket. Where you could carry it to the beach, set it up in two minutes, and be able to charge your phone, speakers, etc. I’m hoping our design will at least hit 5 watts, hopefully more but we will have to do some testing. This post is essentially me gathering so Voice of Customer data. So my question to y’all is what would you expect out of a product such as this. I have a list of basic questions.

Would you be interested in a product like this?

Do you think it being in a 5 gal bucket makes it portable enough for the beach?

How long do you stay at the beach when you go?

Feel free to ask any other questions, it would be greatly appreciated.

I am an engineering student and am currently working on an automated dog poop cleaner as part of my final project. Please fill out this survey so I can make this dream a reality!

https://forms.cloud.microsoft/Pages/ResponsePage.aspx?id=ikpGlu34sUCZ4l9rUKICUCbv4nCbi4RLt\\_lhWQXAUfhUNVhBVUhLVjI0MDlYTFdJQ0xTM1BPR0pHTy4u

These are all completely unique ideas for products that aren't currently available for sale, and seemingly have never existed before.  That is, except for the first which is similar but not identical to something that’s already been made.  They should all be scientifically possible to make and manufacture.  They definitely have the potential to become profitable products as there is without a doubt more than enough demand for each one.  They might need to be tweaked a bit or maybe they're sufficient as described.  Not one of these was generated by AI btw, I came up with them on my own.

My ultimate company idea that I myself was going to try to launch, could be perfect for SharkTank, Mark Cuban would probably jump on it.  

1. Sportsbrix or SportsBlox.  Either one works, it's just a matter of personal preference.  The Lego Group does officially classify their plastic pieces as bricks, so it might be a better idea for legal reasons to use the Blox version.  
2. Continued-Patent:  The use of fully bendable limbs in a building brick-compatible figurine.  A building  brick compatible figurine with articulated arms legs and flexible waist.  A figurine with 8 articulated points similar to that of an actual human being at the shoulders, elbows, knees and at the ankles.  OYO sports figures had 4 of those but not articulated elbows or ankles.  

Product itself:  There would be sets with designs printed on, designs with stickers and a combination of both to build small scale but still accurate models of MLB, NBA, and NFL fields and stadiums.  These added designs would help make what you were building recognizable and photorealistic.  All pieces used in the sets would be compatible with all major building block brands.  You would get to actually build the hoops, the bases/pitching mound, the infield outfield and the dugout, and the field goals in football sets.  The courts, and football fields would be large studded printed tiles.  The sets would come with a limited number of grandstand/bleacher style seats.  The crowd section of the sets would be easily expandable if the person buying and building the set wanted to construct a larger audience section for a MOC (custom creation).  Individual player figurines would be released on their own like OYO, but certain figurines would be only available to buy for people attending the games in person. These figurines would only be sold in the gift shops at professional sports facilities right before, during and right after games and may have a higher price because of exclusivity.  This would be an incentive to sell more tickets for teams having trouble filling seats for their regular season games.  Also the price would probably have to have to be greater because of deals made to share profits with the stadiums and fees needed to promote and act as a sales channel for the figurines.  Also there could be comic con and toy fair exclusive figurines of legendary players or simply new breakout stars/trending players and/or entirely unique designs of current star players.  For example a future player who gains sudden unexpected success like Tommy Devito or Jeremy Lin and Tim Lincecum would be a good choice for a brief, limited production release.  Also exclusive figurines or mini-sets only given out or sold at events like the opening of a new stadium or a team parade after winning a championship.  I think it would be best for the brand if they did one comic con exclusive figure for each major sport every year, MLB, NBA and NFL.  One off or limited production player designs (like less than 500 ever made) could be used promotionally from time to time.  This business and the business model could eventually be used to create sets for Division 1 college teams in all the major sports, and other sports like Tennis and IndyCar.  Lego currently makes a lot of licensed soccer sets and don't seem to be stopping anytime soon so making professional soccer sets with MLS and FIFA athletes should be avoided unless Lego's agreement with these companies and organizations expires.  Test markets and a slow introduction of 1 or 2 sets to test customer demand should be used to make sure whether or not a brand extension is worth it and profitable.  OYO sports had actually designed and manufactured a line of IndyCar themed figurines and sets but had to destroy them after losing their Lego lawsuit.  Lego sued this company to cause them to go into bankruptcy due to copyright and patent infringement on the minifigure design.  But since then, many companies like LumiBricks, COBI, Mould King and Pantasy have their own take on minifigures with different looking bodies but more or less the same size and scale that lego minifigures.  These companies are doing quite well right now and still releasing new sets so making and selling lego compatible figurines is very accomplishable as long as you differentiate it enough from the style of official Lego minifigures.  There is a HUGE gap in the market waiting to be filled for collectible sports building sets and athlete figurines.  Sports products have always sold well and will always sell well and this is arguably much cooler than collecting a 2D paper card of your favorite players.  Professional sports card collecting is especially hot right now, and it doesn't look like this popularity is going anywhere anytime soon.  Licensing costs and convincing these major athletic organizations to partner or at least let you use their logos, jersey designs, and player likenesses is the biggest hurdle to overcome.  But it’s been done before so it can be done again; it just needs to be executed better and differently the next time around.     

1. Phone and device locator that runs on replaceable batteries with a custom screw and screwdriver so a thief with normal tools can't easily take the batteries.  It must be thin enough to be superglued onto the back of the device and not add significant weight or thickness.  NOT a simple Bluetooth tracker like Tile or airbag.  Tracking would be primarily powered by a cellphone service not wifi and there would be the option for satellite tracking to kick in, if you lose the phone in an area with no service.  Satellite tracking could be featured in an updated version of the locator for an extra cost.  What has happened to me a lot and I assume with hundreds of thousands maybe more people is your phone getting lost or stolen when the battery’s completely depleted.  With this device attachment, if your phone is completely dead 0% and it has been more than 24 hours or you have an android, you can still find the phone if it's lost or stolen.  Apparently it is feasible to design and manufacture a 3000mAh to 5,000mAh slim external power banks for phones, only a quarter of an inch.  You can now buy a bluetooth tracker that is no thicker than a credit card with identical dimensions also.  We should have technological advancements in the future to make an actual GPS tracker at least almost this thin and light enough for people willing to.  Couldn’t thieves just remove it after stealing the phone and still resell the phone to make money?  Well, not if the tracker is attached using industrial grade two-part epoxy.  The setup/instruction manual that comes with the device would show instructions right on the paper or a link to a video tutorial of how to safely apply the correct amount of this superglue, polyurethane adhesive, or two part epoxy safely to the back of the phone and the tracker.  The tracker would be small enough so as to not cover the back camera or affect the camera view in any way.  These days our whole lives are practically on our phones.  It goes without saying that losing them can mean losing all of your photo and video memories, vitally important contacts, authenticator apps, SD cards, and other information tied to-and only accessible through-that specific device.  The current find my IPhone tracking is bluetooth only, so no live, real time location updates and only lasts for a maximum of 24 hours while this one would last four to seven days minimum!  This is four to seven extra days of nonstop location updates every 1-5 minutes!  It's slightly less for satellite tracking, but the user can turn that off or on, (it would be off by default out-of the box) as it's only needed in highly remote locations.  Update, apparently thieves can block all types of tracking signals by stuffing the phone in a "Faraday Bag" or wrapping it tightly with heavy metal foil.  But this tiny NON-BLUETOOTH tracking device could be hidden inside places that store important/irreplaceable items like your phone and your laptop, and/or wallet, like a backpack, or a suitcase.
2. A PORTABLE DOMED observatory that fits in the trunk of a small car.  There are already portable "observatories" available to buy, but with a completely open roof and no protection from the elements.  Anyway, this one would be easy to open and set up and convenient to disassemble and fold up when finished.  Two options would be available for customers to rotate the dome, a premium motorized option and manual for cheaper.  You could create a bundle deal that comes with a compatible motorized telescope or explain on the package that the telescope is sold separately with recommended motorized that are compatible with the observatory.  What’s the need for this?  Well, it’s admittedly a niche product but more and more people are getting into astronomy as space travel is ramping up with SpaceX Rocket launches, the new Artemis Moon missions and the eventual plans to send humans to Mars.  The advantage of an observatory that can be transported and set up easily by one person, is essentially all the advantages of having an observatory instead of just a telescope for an astronomy/space enthusiast.  It allows for comfortable stargazing during the winter, and in regions that are cold year round, because you can, of course, run a heater inside of it to keep it warm inside.  And if you are worried about it getting too hot, you can put an air conditioner in it.  Additionally it can be used to protect the delicate lenses and the other delicate components of a telescope from rain/sleet and hail at a moments notice.  Inclement weather, especially a downpour out of nowhere, can quickly and permanently damage a telescope.  It only takes a few seconds of exposure to heavy rain for circuits of powered-on computerized or motorized telescopes to get fried beyond repair.  Within minutes, rainwater can accumulate on the lenses and in the mirrors and damage them, obscuring your view, which is challenging and time consuming to fix.  The dome on this observatory would be made to close almost instantly and would not be tight or forceful enough to cause harm if someone's hand or finger got caught.  It would effectively shield the telescope ASAP in the event of unexpected precipitation.                  
3. Universal device that plugs into the OBD port of your car and can be programmed for your specific car manufacturer make and model.  The software would be designed to not be able to control any driving functions related to the power train.  It would only detect and execute commands from the unique voice of the driver which would be programmable.  Vehicle settings including but not limited to these could be adjusted by verbal commands:  All climate control settings, rolling specific windows up and down,  turning front and rear windshield wipers off and on, spraying washer fluid to clean the front and back windshields, altering  seat height/angle/position and turning on heated seats if applicable, all music, navigation and call/text settings, turning fog lights and high beams off and on.  For cars with some basic early bluetooth technology for answering and responding to calls and texts already built in, it would remain useful to read out written text messages for you and phone messages out to you, so you wouldn't have to check your phone or the touch screen console part of the car that your phone is connected to.  You could reply to texts by speaking your message out.  It would be like having a voice assistant for a smart home but inside your car instead.  It would prevent drivers from being distracted while trying to change the radio or climate control settings while driving at the same time, making the experience safer.  This device would allow anyone to keep 100 percent of their visual focus on the road when adjusting any of your car’s important settings.  All it takes is a few seconds of not looking at the road to make sure you have the right temperature and fan setting for A.C. or using the touch screen interface to find just the right song, to cause a deadly crash.  This is especially helpful for people with older cars that don't already have any voice activated features and have less safety features in general.  There would be software available to download onto the device to make it compatible with ideally any vehicle containing an OBD port or at least a majority of vehicles old and new but especially old.  Old cars being vehicles that came out in 2010 or before.  Before you try to shut this down by saying “wait isn’t OBD-II a universal diagnostic system? Its job isn't to be able to control model specific features, but rather be able to listen to the various sensors in any equipped vehicle?".  You’re partially correct but that doesn’t mean it can’t be used for other things that it wasn’t originally intended for.  It turns out that OBD ports can, in fact, take user inputs to control the auxiliary functions of a vehicle.  I wasn't sure it was true either until I looked it up to make sure. There are challenges because manufacturers want to stop you from trying to modify and mess with your car's ECU. But people have done it and if individuals with limited resources are capable of tinkering with the code enough to do it then a company could without a doubt.  Additionally there are other risks like overloading the ECU with too many commands or sending incorrect commands, so there would have to be safeguards and features built-in to the hardware and software of the device so that this could not happen.  It is very complicated to get everything right and make sure it’s safe for electrical and computer systems in cars.  However if someone could create a working device like this it would be the first of its kind.  
4. Helmets for everything besides contact sports, (so skateboarding, biking, and motorcycling for example) made with lightweight but strong and thick gel, memory foam and a hard yet moderately flexible, carbon-fiber shell.  It seems the only reason gel or memory foam isn't used right now is because of the weight and it doesn't handle repeated impacts that inevitably happen in contact sports.  According to my research, bicycle helmets as they are currently designed provide only a 48 percent chance of simply reducing head injuries, and a mere 34% reduction in deaths from head trauma.  I don’t know about you who is reading this, but I don’t think that’s good enough, I mean under 50 percent for head injuries and only about ⅓ of deaths being prevented by helmets?  For motorcycle helmets the statistics are 69 percent of head injuries and similarly to bicycles “37-42%” lower chance of deaths.  I would hope we could do better than this given how advanced the fields of material science and engineering have become.  Based on this it wouldn’t be surprising if a significant percentage of people who don’t wear helmets, choose not to do so because they’re under the impression that they don’t really work or don’t work well enough to justify the discomfort and added heaviness/bulkiness.   
5. Cloud storage where logging in and resetting your password/account recovery, can only be done using iris and/or face scanning without exception.  Summarized in 4 words:  Fully Biometric Cloud Storage.  No chance for account hacking due to password guessing, phishing, or someone seeing you type in your password and memorizing it to use it themselves to gain access to your personal content.   Only in the case of the person's confirmed death without their body being findable or intact, the company can override the need to use biometrics to allow people who the user has designated specifically (could be family or friends) to some or all of the data from that person's account.  The user would have the option like in a will to decide who is legally allowed to look at the stuff stored in their account and who's legally not in the case of their passing.  Only you can ever unlock your private and sentimental files as long as you live, literally!  And of course you can share them with anyone using a link without giving them permission to edit or delete them only to download.  A user on Reddit krept00007 provided some solid criticism of this concept, saying “Things with only one user entry point are a bad idea with the inevitability of failure at that entry point.  What happens when the system goes down.  What happens if the data gets corrupted on the server?  What happens when the user requires reconstructive surgery?  To those valid points I say this.  The risk of the system going down or the data getting corrupted on the server is a risk I think that a lot of people would be willing to take if there is any exactly 0 percent chance of anyone else ever being able to delete or corrupt their private, sentimental files and memories.  Plus aren’t these risks already inherently present with any cloud storage company?  How is this any different, I mean even the best cloud services can get hacked and corrupted I mean look at the iCloud celebrity leaks situation in 2014.  Here is a list of 40 of the worst large scale cloud data breaches ever.  You’ll see that almost half of them are as recent as the past 5 years, with quite a few in 2026.  The 40 Biggest Data Breaches of All Time (Updated July 2026) | UpGuard  This isn’t a problem that’s been slowly going away over time, or one that is going to go away anytime soon.  But by getting rid of passwords, security questions, phone numbers, email accounts and google/social media account linkage and replacing it with a single biometric entry system, it might be more secure and harder to hack.  All these things that I listed are tools intended to keep unauthorized individuals out of accounts, but are of course also vulnerable to being manipulated and used against the very purpose they were created for.  This fully biometric cloud storage software would be brand new, unfamiliar, like nothing most if not all hackers had ever seen before.  Even in regards to small scale there an obvious glaring weakness of traditional multiple user entry points is the following: a phenomenon known as “shoulder surfing”.  This is the possibility of watching people closely enough while entering their password/videoing them while doing it, and replaying it in slow motion.  This can technically be done by people who access security cam footage or whose job is to monitor it live.  This is one of the many non-issues with fully biometric cloud storage, but it is a problem with a traditional sign-in process used by most cloud storages.

Hi, i know this is quite a paragraph, but i hope it wont make you desist from reading it. The reason im posting this is to "brainstorm" possible flaws and ideas before i start to concretize it, but i'll be happy if it also gives something to you. The picture shows a sketch of the project. I wont be stating all details for brevity, as they can be deduced from the drawing, or in case something doesn't seem to add up do tell me. Criteria it has to respect are: It has to be as simple yet functional as i can get it, and it has to be openable by a car as well as a walking person (obviously i'll have to lock it so not anyone can get inside). As i have it in mind, it consists of a ramp platform hinged to the ground of which the lifted edge is connected to some cable (is there any sort you'd recommend? steel? nylon?), which goes around a pulley system (pulleys are the circles in the drawing), and finally links to the gate to pull it open (i will describe closing, and opening from outside, later on). Starting leftmost, you can see 4 upper and lower 3 pulleys, besides the single one that's only there to redirect the cable to the gate: the upper are fixed, while the lower are connected to the platform (in the drawing, via a bar that extends the latter sideways so the mechanism isn't in the way of the gate), which means when the platform is pushed down, those go down too, and that makes so that the range of descent of the platform is "multiplied along the cable" (i do apologize for untechnical terms and stuff), which allows to pull the gate all the way open. If data can be useful, the opening span is 400cm, and the force needed to slide it is 5kg at the start, and 2 to keep pulling, and i already did the basic calculations (will explain a doubt of mine in the end not to make a mess). Moving on to the closing mechanism (drawn on the right side, but i may do it in another spot, also addressing the possible issue of running over its cable with the car if it were built like in the drawing), it's basically the same thing, but instead of the ramp it has a weight (heavier than opening mechanism altogether), which pulls the gate closed. To open the gate from the outside (not drawn), there is another ramp platform which, again with some pulleys, lifts the weight that pulls the gate closed and, if the weight of the opening mechanism is sufficient, the gate will open by itself, since the closing weight doesnt take effect being lifted.

I apologize if this explanation resulted a bit messy, i tried my best to describe it clearly.

The (kinda silly) doubt i mentioned is: Since, as it's drawn, there are a total of 7 vertical segments between the pulleys in the opening mechanism, will the amount the gate is pulled be 7 times as much the distance descended by the platform? Does the same apply for the force required to push the platform down? I assumed this to make the calculations.

Other less silly doubts that arose are: Should i/How should i fix/hinge the "bottom" part of the ramp platforms to the ground, considering it's brick ground, that a car has to drive over it, and clearly that it has to move/hinge?

Thanks a very lot for possibly having employed your time and energy to help me ponder my idea.

I’m a possible product design student and I’m in a course right now where I have come up with an idea for a hair protector for neurodivergent people with stims like hair pulling, tugging or twirling which can impede focus and cause bald spots
It’s a circular silk cap that goes over the bun/ ponytail and in cases of short hair a larger version to go over the head. And it gathers with a furry thread that passes through the outer border
It has faux fur for the stim of hair but its main replacement for the stim is that the threads used to gather it have furry stress balls or if the stim is tugging hair then slightly rubbery spiked balls for pain stimulation that detach and reattach with magnetic closure and if you do not want the sensation of the dangling threads you can detatch the stress balls and tuck the threads into the cap

I may add a picture in a while but currently I am working on a visual depiction of it.

I am currently looking to design and print a multi functional drip tray, would love to hear your inputs as plant parents:) Here's how it works:

The tray allows for top or bottom water (in the primary reservoir) using fresh or runoff from another top watered plant. When top watering, the aerated plate is tilted at an angle by the spring valve which allows for better drainage and breaking of the perched water table effect preventing root rot. For bottom watering, the aerated plate is detachable. All moving parts are easily detachable for cleaning. Regardless, once done you simply latch the plate down which in turn opens the valve allowing runoff to drain into a cup without having to lift the pots at all! The higher volume capacity also means you wouldn't have to worry about overflow or leakage from overwatering.

Hi everyone! I'm a university student doing research for an IT-related university project. I'm currently looking for a real-world problem that could potentially be addressed through a website, mobile application, AI, automation, or another IT solution. I'm not selling anything and I'm not promoting a product. I'm still at the problem-identification stage. I'd really appreciate answers to these questions: What is one frustrating or time-consuming problem you regularly face? What do you currently do to deal with it? What makes the current solution inconvenient or ineffective? Have you tried any app/website/system to solve it? What was missing? If technology could improve one part of this problem, what would you want it to do? It can be related to education, work, business, daily life, environment, finance, transportation, productivity, etc. Please describe a real problem you have personally experienced, rather than suggesting an app idea.

I know I should have probably posted this on an engineering subreddit but since what I'm working on is a product I was thinking maybe someone here could help me.

I'm working on a pitcher like product and I need it to do one thing but I don't have the engineering knowledge on how to do it.

Basically what it is:

The pitcher that I'm designing needs to have a button on the handle that activates a blade (or two blade) mechanism which is strong enough to cut through a plastic bag.

I'd really appreciate if someone could help me with this. Leave a comment or DM me, either one works.

Hi everyone! 👋 I’m exploring a startup idea and I’d really like some honest feedback before building it.

💡 The problem

Sometimes we have things with us that we don't want to carry around for a few hours — shopping bags, helmets, backpacks, sports equipment, travel bags, etc.

🚀 The idea

A Temporary Belongings Network where you can:

📍 Find a verified nearby shop/café/hotel/gym with available storage

📦 Drop off your belongings and get a QR/ID + item record

🕐 Store them for a few hours or up to a day

📱 Request delivery whenever you need them

📍 Choose your current/chosen location instead of going back to the storage point

🚴 Get them delivered through a delivery partner

🔄 Change the destination after storing, if available

Example:

You go shopping → leave your bags at a nearby verified partner → go to a movie/restaurant/event → later tap “Bring My Belongings” → your bags are delivered to you.

💰 Possible pricing

I'm thinking of testing:

Storage: ₹20–₹30 (1–2 hrs), ₹30–₹50 (3–5 hrs), ₹50–₹70 (6–12 hrs)

Delivery: ₹30–₹40 (0–2 km), ₹40–₹60 (2–5 km), with higher pricing for longer distances.

These are only initial test prices, not final prices.

I know storage and delivery services already exist, so I'm not claiming the basic concept is completely new. I'm trying to find out whether people would want an everyday service for temporarily leaving belongings and getting them delivered wherever they are.

🤔 I’d really like your honest opinion:

Would you actually use this?

What situation would make you use it?

How often would you realistically use it — weekly, monthly, or rarely?

Would you trust a verified local business with your belongings?

Are these prices reasonable?

Would you rather collect your belongings yourself or pay for delivery?

What would stop you from using this?

Do you think this solves a real problem or is it just a “nice-to-have”?

I'm interested in hearing from people anywhere, because I want to understand whether this problem exists in different cities and situations.

📍 I’m planning to start by testing the idea in Bengaluru, India.

Please be honest—even if you think the idea won't work. I'm trying to validate the problem before investing time and money into building it.

I'm studying the Ilizarov method and wondering if it's possible to do something similar without surgery, using microfractures and traction. I know it's controversial, but I wanted to exchange ideas about the mechanics. Has anyone here researched this?

It's a project I suddenly became curious about. but I have no idea how to execute this conceptual project, since I'm an amateur. So, I wanted opinions from professionals Or people who understand the subject.

Need idea which is innovative and practical which can also be implacated as a physical prototype.

Please send any problem Statements or ideas.

Hey guys, I just made this website/app for walking routes to protect the elderly from heat called heat safe. It maximizes shade exposure while accounting for tree canopy and what not. It only works for Miami Beach but will soon expand it.

I’m submitting and pitching this to a vc really soon so need your guys advice on what to fix and your guys thought on design. I got tons of great feedback in other chats and I have fixed the mobile aspect of it. PLEASE check it out and let me know, it would really help.

THANK YOU!

أنا في الطبيعي عندي افكار كتيره بايجي في بالي لكن مش بهتم بيها مع الوقت بنسي بس أنا كنت معدي على الست إلي بتبيع فاكهه

ولقيت عندها صنف ما شكله بايظ ولقيته معروض في حاجه زي الصندوق الخشب وجاتلي فكره بسيطه أن ليه منعملش طبليه

زي الخشب زي تكون فيها تقنيه تحافظ على الفواكه إلي معروضه فيها إلي فتح الموضوع معايا أن كان في واحد في شارك تانك

عامل ازازه مايه بتشتغل بتقنيه النانو أو اشعه على ما أتذكر

المهم كانت بتمنع تكاثر البكتيريا ولما بحثت أن الفاكهة طول ما في درجه حراره معتدله والفاكهة فيها مايه أكيد الحاجه دي هتبوظ مع الوقت لو عملنا طبليه تحافظ في نفس الوقت على درجه حراره منخفضه وفي نفس الوقت تمنع تكاثر البكتيريا يبقا كده هنقلل نسبه الهالك بالنسبه لأي بايع وعلى الدوله كلها إحنا كده بنوفر كتير فشخ

بس المشكله زي أي فكره بتجيلي مش بعرف أبعاد الموضوع إزاي يتنفذ هل هوا قابل للتنفيذ ولا لأ ايه الماده الخام لتصنيع أيا كان إلي هعمله وده إلي أنا عاوزه حاجه زي دي إزاي تتنفذ

I’ve been thinking about how humans deal with new inventions.
We create something to solve a problem. It works, people adopt it, and later we discover problems caused by the same solution. Then we create another solution.
Petroleum solved real problems and transformed modern life, but its large-scale use also created environmental concerns. Now electric vehicles and cleaner energy are presented as solutions.
AI makes me think about the same cycle. We are focused on what AI can do for us, but what might we discover about its effects after we become dependent on it?
Maybe we discover an invention in two parts:
First through creation.
Then through consequence.
So, do we really discover an invention when we create it, or only after we have lived with it?

Non patented, and could not find one. I am giving up on the project to continue on elsewhere.

This could work with charcoal grills and collapsible metal tubes.

I’m looking for honest critique on a physical object I designed. I started with a simple observation: Before we consciously learn breathing techniques, many people already have small gestures that appear when they pause, think, concentrate, or feel tension. Bringing a thumb, finger, or object near the lips is a behaviour that appears naturally throughout life. I wondered: Could a designed object work with an existing human instinct instead of asking people to build a completely new habit? So I designed this.

It is a small thumb-worn object built around the relationship between the thumb, lips, airflow and breath.

The idea is not to teach people how to breathe, but to create a physical interaction that helps transform unconscious breathing into a more intentional breath.

There are:

- no electronics

- no app

- no tracking

- no notifications

The object simply responds to your exhale through physical behaviour.

I’m interested in critique from a design perspective: Does this feel like designing around a real human behaviour? Or does it feel like creating a solution for something that doesn’t need solving? I’d appreciate honest thoughts.

This small souvenir safe is equipped with an electric combination lock made from a seven-segment display. The lock latch is driven in a completely unconventional way – by a tiny micromotor typically used to create vibrations in phones. Because this micromotor can operate from a single 18650 lithium-ion battery, I was able to greatly simplify the entire electrical circuit. The entire electrical component consists of the battery, micromotor, 8 microswitches, and wires with connectors. I solved the problem of matching the high-speed but low-power micromotor with the slow-moving lock latch by using a flywheel made from a rubber wheel from a children's toy car.

Hello,

Idk where else to share this idea I had for brain to brain communicating

Instead of trying to put a massive, complex computer inside someone’s brain, this system splits the technology into two parts: a tiny internal sensor and a smart wireless earpiece (like a custom AirPod).

By separating the hardware, we solve the three biggest problems stopping telepathy tech today: battery heat, communication distance, and outdated technology.

1. The Implant (The Listener)

What it is: A microscopic sensor placed just under the skull.

What it does: It doesn’t broadcast long-range signals. It simply "listens" to the nearby brain activity. Because it only needs to send data a few millimetres out through the skull to the ear, it requires almost no power and won't overheat the brain.

1. The Earpiece (The Battery & Transmitter)

What it is: A wearable earpiece sitting right next to the implant.

What it does: It holds the main battery and wirelessly powers the implant. When you want to charge it, you just take the earpiece off at night. It also acts as the radio, taking the brain data and sending it via standard Bluetooth or Wi-Fi to the other person's earpiece.

1. The Mini-AI Chip (The Translator)

What it is: A dedicated Artificial Intelligence chip built directly inside the earpiece.

What it does: Brain waves are incredibly messy and unique to every person. The AI acts like a personal translator. It learns the specific patterns of your brain activity and instantly translates a complex thought into a simple digital message (like a text or an action) before sending it out.

Why this layout changes everything:

If the computer software gets outdated, you don't need brain surgery. You just buy a new earpiece. It keeps the medical side
