The idea is to have a lighting system that will mimic the sun's movement and the temperature of sunlight to provide some sun-drenched relief to office workers and apartment dwellers. The surface of the system will be enhanced by nano-technology to replicate the same light-scattering process as the atmosphere (which creates our blue sky). When LED lights are placed behind these panels, the result will be a realistic 'skylight' that can add natural light to hard-to-reach interior...

The body dryer will be designed to replace germy and environmentally unfriendly bathroom towels with a more environmentally sound solution--compressed ionized air. The body dryer will be equipped with angled vents that will be adjusted according to the needs, or size, of the user. The arrangement of the vents will send a cylindrical tunnel of compressed air up from the footplate to dry the individual in about 30 seconds, with no towel required. The air temperature will be adjusted...

The dry erase notebooks will combine the flexibility and convenience of paper with the green-friendly, reusability of whiteboards into one portable bundle. The notebook line will covers a range of sizes, from the small 3"x 5" to the large 11"x 17". Each notebook will contain 25 sheets of white paper that will be coated using a UV gloss spray technique to create an exceptionally smooth writing surface, which will be the key to an enjoyable writing experience. The notebooks can be...

The idea is to design smart light switch functioning as a sensor to dial in the optimal light levels in the room. The switch will go beyond color-changing, app-enabled bulbs to provide an intuitive lighting-environment. The device's sensor will detect movements, noise, the time of day and the room's ambient light levels, and then automatically adjust the lighting to suit the needs of the moment. Bedtime will trigger the lights to slowly dim, setting a relaxing mood, while...

Singing in the shower will get a bit easier with a shower head featuring an integrated wireless, waterproof speaker. The shower head speaker will communicate with any Wi-Fi enabled music player up to 39 feet away. The speaker will be magnetically attached to the shower head, and will be easily removed for recharging or for use at other, potentially damp places. The shower head will be powered by a lithium-ion battery, which can last up to seven hours and will be recharged by the...

The Aeroball concept takes air-purifying devices to a new level, filtering the air in the home with small glowing balls that float around the room. The Aeroballs float around the room using helium, where they filter and add fragrance to the air in the room and sink to the ground when they need re-charging. The balls also absorb light during the day, allowing them to create a soft illumination at night that adds to the over-all sensory experience.

The bladeless ceiling fan creates an indoor breeze that's smoother and quieter--and safer for cats. The fan features a stack of spinning discs that take advantage of the science of laminar flow to move air throughout the room. The air is directed around the room in a 360° horizontal flow, moving with a smooth, uninterrupted stream and mixing the air in the room to eliminate hot or cold spots.

The door-free refrigerator concept will save energy by not refrigerating empty areas. The refrigerator concept will replace the door with a honeycomb wall of hexagonal chambers. Each chamber will be covered by a plate that will move aside when an item is inserted, exposing the item to the system of refrigerated pins. Since only areas with objects in them will be refrigerated, this refrigerator will use less energy than conventional ones. And since the items stay in sight, there...

The Milkmaid will text you when the milk has started to spoil. The glass container will sit upon a detachable base containing a sensor able to detect the pH level of its contents. The changing state of the milk will be indicated by colored LED lights on the jug, and the device will send a text message about the current state of the milk to an assigned mobile phone. The container will also include a free app that provides information about the status of the milk, such as...

Why not control family showering times without saying a word or knocking on the bathroom door? New technology can restore peace and harmony to your daily shower time living. The shower manager fits to existing shower heads. You program in a shower time that best fits your family lifestyle. Once this time has expired, the device cuts the flow of water by 2/3, leaving just enough flow to finish rinsing. It is family friendly too. A 60-second tone alerts the bather of the change...
