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.

There's this big fat wall sitting in front of my kitchen window (it's probably the same wall you have in front of your toilet window, or someone else can see from his sleeping room window). "My" wall is only a couple of feet away from the kitchen window, but it's far enough so I can't touch it when I lean out of the window (and I wouldn't want to try it as Im living on the fourth floor). Still the wall really looks like I should make some cool use of it. If the wall was made of steel,...

I'd like to see window adhesives to cover the entire window. Ideas could be a stained glass effect, or fall leaves, animals, etc.

I used to make furninture I had a modern spray set-up where the fluid was forced out of the carbided nozzle by physical pressure not by air (Lincoln makes this). The spray salesman at the time and me figured that it would be possible to make a slurry of cement and spray that also. Now you construct a large rubber bladder, like the bladder of a football, but this one ten feet around and in a bullet shape about ten foot tall. Then you blow up the bladder and you spray on some cement...

Individual plastic molded photochromic roof tiles that can replace original concrete tiles. Each tile interlinks with the next just like normal but has a hot shoe connection embedded in the tile. The energy collected from the roof can be supplied to a battery storage area and converted to household electricity via an inverter. The amount of electricity gathered would be greater than solar panels as you would have the whole roof acting as a giant SOLAR PANEL.

Design a windmill that adjusts to the amount of wind that is blowing. If there is not much wind then not much electricty is going to be produced, but it is still running. Most windmills need 6PMH to start and then max out. As the wind gets stronger the tension should get stronger to produce more power. If the wind is low the tension should release so that a small amount of power is being produced. The actual design of the windmill should not be like a normal one, it should be designed to...

I figure since there are pop-up sprinklers for outside, why can't there be pop-up vacuumes for inside? I know it would be hard to cover up the holes in the carpet where they pop up, but it would save a lot of vacuuming hassle. Imagine what you could do with the push of a button...

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...

Imagine shingling your house in one half hour, rather than back breaking labor for days. If you were to place hundreds of shingles on one large sticky roll and have it crane lifted to the top of the house and simply stick the shingle sheets covering the entire roof, then you would have a very fast and efficient way to shingle a house. It would also not leak, because it couldn't be lifted by the air or any outside conditions of weather. It would also have no break in between shingles, and...
