Inventions that should Exist

[TeeDee]

Inventions that should exist are things that should exist in the real world but for some reason - do not.


Example

We have Toilet Seats and we have Rubbish Bins with pedal operated lids to flip them up and down.

Why don't we have a Pedal bin operated Toilet Seats?

I'm not overly prudish about bodily functions but lets admit Men municipal toilets are not the kind of place where you want too touch too many things.



Anymore inventions that should be?

Car boots that open at a touch of a key fob when your arms are full - but not car doors!

Edit: actually, thinking about it, there probably are some; I just can't afford those cars

My mates Range Rover has a sensor under the rear bumper so all he does is move his foot under it and the boot opens.

There was a compressed air van about 25 years ago that ran by cleverly turning a geared small turbine. The van rear was a completely fibreglass compression tank. Did speeds of around 60 mph and mileage was around 120 miles.

......then it disappeared, never to be seen again, have since in the past tried to find details of it, nothing?

a voice controlled switch would be the answer, tuned to respond to your voice only, could open all your doors.

The problem is when you are walking to the car with the missus, who no doubt is giving you an earful, and you tell her to shut up, you find yourself locked out of your car...lol

A heat exchange pipeline to supply cold air to hot countries and hot air to cold countries.

Retro electric appliances, still full function, but with dials and actual buttons that are familiar to people over 65...not touch screens with 40 options available to run a load of laundry.
They tell us that we have an aging population, then all the new appliances and equipment has features that only teenagers can understand (exaggerating a little).

 

[Fadcode]

what about a button we could press to get some points in the Eurovision Song Contest, again we have got Nil Point, shameful.

something to block of the reception of mobile phones (== stop them from working) when the ignition key in a vehicle is in the lock -- i've stopped the amount of close calls "" thanks"'' to some ***** idiot using their phone while driving (not to mention two hit-and-run accidents (and one deliberate attempt to run me over but that didn't involve a phone...))... looking at all the electronic crap in cars these days it shouldn't be too difficult to achieve...

 

[Fadcode]

it would be better to disable GPS systems especially the video screens, and rely on voice directions, as I am sure these are a distraction too, but I have seen adverts, with the internet available on screens, apparently a good selling point for driverless cars.......as John Wayne said "That'll be the day"

Closest heard of, is the Australian's Northern Territory solar project. Building a massive solar farm (30,000 acres, world's largest) and then sending the power generated over a 3,700 km undersea cable to Singapore.

Outdoorsy one.
A signal mirror built into a phone case. Have the mirror side facing the back of the phone for protection, but if needed to use it, pop it off.

Marmite flavoured butter.

I've tried making that; it just ends up a wet mess.

Maybe it needs to be hit with some Liquid Nitrogen ( every kitchen surely has that under the sink, ) first in the same way as the Peanut Butter in PB2 is turned to powder.
