The body dryer will be designed to make towels a thing of the past, replacing bacteria-laden terrycloth with a hot air wand. Inspired by the hair drier, the body dryer concept will include three different settings that will allow the user to choose the intensity and heat of the air by turning the device. After stepping from the shower or bath, the user will simply wave the device over their skin to evaporate the excess moisture. A built-in HEPA and humidity filter will help keep...

For people who take their eggs seriously, smart egg tray will track the number of eggs remaining in carton and recommend which ones to use first. The tray will hold up to fourteen eggs and sync with a smartphone for instant, on-the-go information, such as how many eggs are remaining in the carton. LED lights in the tray next to each egg will indicate the oldest egg (based on when they were placed in the carton) and push notifications sent to the smartphone will alert you when the...

Bedbugs can be a serious concern, particularly to East Coast urban dwellers. The new trap will be made from an inverted pet bowl with the outer edges covered in double-sided black tape. The inverted bowl will have higher walls than other traps on the market, and the bait (spearmint and coriander oil) will be augmented with CO2 canisters, sugar and yeast, which will produce the bedbug attractant carbon dioxide. Although the trap will not kill the bed bugs, it will serve as an early...

A revolutionary RFID locking and access control system will have door control units that will be fully self-powered through an integrated energy converter. Energy produced by using the door handle will be automatically converted to electrical energy to operate the RFID locking system - no batteries or power cables will be needed. The access ID reader interface can be rapidly and easily reprogrammed, so that, for example, lost ID keys can be immediately invalidated and...

Inspired by a hamster ball, the robot will propel itself along the ground without any limbs or wheels (or hamsters). A system of pendulums will swing in two different directions in order to shift the robot's center of mass. As a pendulum swings to the right or left, the robot will naturally move in the opposite direction as it will attempt to stabilize (the same thing happens when a hamster runs up one side of the hamster ball). The robot could be used as a low-cost system...

The robot will brighten the dark areas of your home by automatically tracking the sun and directing it to a desired target. The small, portable robot will feature a mirror that will constantly adjust to reflect the sun's rays to a chosen location. The rays can be used to heat an area, send sunlight to neglected plants or simply brighten a dimly lit room. An array of solar cells power the dual-axis microcomputer and it will be able to redirect the equivalent of a 500 watt halogen...

This is a picture mirror. Basically what you do is you stand in front of it and it is like a humoungous touch screen and is voice activated so when you say to show you something it will. Then you can say take a picture or touch the mirror and it will take a picture of you. This is good if you want to take a picture of all your outfits. And their is a gallery also where you can view all your pictures. It can also talk to like a robot or something and tell you if it looks good or not.

The sleek and intuitive window socket concept will be a portable, solar powered socket designed to be easily attached to a window. Meant to be easy to use with no special training, the small, round window socket will feature a solar panel surrounded by a suction plate and a converter that will convert the energy to electricity. A battery on the device will store the power for later use, and it will provide up to 10 hours of continuous power when fully charged.

Instead of the conventional roof-mounted solar panels, the new design concept will feature a flexible, solar cell-embedded façade able to move with the sun and shift positions for maximum energy efficiency. The façade of the house will made up of a network of textile strips embedded with photovoltaic cells. With its two axis solar tracking system, the façade will be able to move to follow the sun and gather the maximum amount of energy. The flexible façade will also be altered to...
