A newly developed sensor-equipped compression shirt will monitor the performance of an athlete and even broadcast the information for the fans to enjoy. The shirt will consist of a small disc container the sensors, power source, Bluetooth transmitter, and memory storage. It will measure performance indicators such as heart rate, metabolism, and lung capacity, as well as allowing doctors to spot the early warning signs of dehydration. The information will help coaches and...

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 smart watch can be tethered to a mobile phone, allowing the user to check texts and emails directly on the watch face. The smart watch is completely customizable and can connect wirelessly to send and receive data to and from smartphones, as well as computers and laptops. Messages are displayed on the 1.3" full color OLED display, and the watch uses a flash memory for image and notification storage. Battery life is as long as 3 days, although with a constant Bluetooth...

Why not create a nightshirt able to monitor breathing patterns to determine the wearer's stages of sleep? Usually people who suffer from sleep apnea and other disorders must spend the night in a lab hooked up to an array of sensors in order to study their sleep patterns. The new will be much simpler, as well as more comfortable to use, and will be based on the idea that sleep patterns can be detected by monitoring only respiration. The shirt will be embedded with electronics in the...

The idea is to develop a device able to detect the exact location of bedbugs in just 15 minutes. Bedbugs are extremely hard to find- they are incredibly tiny, and they are immune to most poison bait or bombs. Exterminators have been using dogs to sniff out pests, and the device will able to sniff out bed bugs in much the same way as the dogs. The "electronic nose" will consist of CO2 and methane sensors along with a pheromone detector to determine a bedbug's location within one...

I suggest creating a new method of password security able to identify how a password is typed in order to verify its accuracy. There should be the software to measure time between keystrokes as well as how long each key is depressed. The extra parameter of key depression will help to make the analysis more reliable.

The idea is to develop a new fast and efficient water distillation method incorporating nanotechnology. There will be a new desalination membrane with carbon nanotubes imbedded in its pores. The nanotubes will allow for much greater vapor penetration, less water clogging, and a higher rate of flow in lower temperatures. There will be no need to heat the water which means that less energy will be required to run the system. This will save both money and resources. The new...

My idea is to capture the wind a train generates as it speeds down the track, using that untapped force to create electricity. Several devices would be placed between the rails of either railway or subway lines. Each device would contain a turbine to gather the otherwise wasted wind energy and harnesses it to produce electricity. The cylindrical devices would be installed on the tracks below ground level on busy rail lines, where they should be able to gather enough wind to...

Why not use the single celled algae to experiment with extracting lipids from it and using the lipids to make biodiesel. Because algae grows very quickly and does not require much land, it can provide a more continuous source of material at a lesser cost than conventional plants.

Why not take into account bone conduction phenomenon and create a telephone for hearing impaired people? The handset in such a case will have a pulsator which, when placed on specific areas of the head, will send vibrations directly to the speech center of the brain. The phone will also include a light to indicate an incoming call and different volume controls.
