5 Inventions That Will Help Shape an Awesome Future- innovative ideas

Over the past couple of decades, technology has grown at an exponential rate, and it is a rate that has taken the world by surprise. Who would have thought that we humans as a “species” would come this far in such a short amount of time, to the point where we are witnessing such great inventions like a “billboard that produces fresh drinking-water.”

Here is a list of 5 great invention ideas that I feel will help shape a better future. Some of them may be in their early stages of development, but they have definitely shown to “work” at the very least.

 The Hendo Hover-board

 This hover-board has been proven to work, although it’s in its very early stages of development. It only hovers through certain metals like aluminum and can only hover 1.5 inches off the ground with a battery life of 15 minutes. This may not seem like much, but it’s important to remember that the development for this product is still in its infant stages.

In time, we can see how much this product can have an impact on society, sparking interest within the youth. It can be used as a new form of transportation. Or it can even be developed into a sport. The hovering technology may even be implemented in “footwear” or “vehicles.”

The Billboard that Produces Fresh Drinking-water

Now this is something that looks like it comes straight out of a science-fiction film. Or maybe some would even classify it as “too strange for fiction.” However, there’s nothing fictional about this outstanding innovation made by students of Peru’s University of Engineering & Technology (UTEC).

This billboard uses Peru’s warm humidity and condenses it into clean drinking water! The population of Lima, Peru live in a desert-like area where it almost never rains, and people have to take water from wells, which is usually dirty. However, this billboard has been very popular among the citizens of Lima, and it’s only a matter of time when this billboard goes into more and more towns of Peru.

Mouth-guard that can detect concussions from the sidelines

One of the worst things about concussions is that it’s hard to detect when someone has experienced one on the spot. Concussions are usually confirmed after several tests after the game. Many players have become injured because they continued playing after experiencing a concussion, and the worst part is that they don’t even realize that they’ve just had a concussion.

The solution is the “Mamori mouth-guard,” an electronic mouth-guard that can detect the force that a player has taken with the help of a computer app and impact sensors. This can definitely help prevent further injuries and give players the immediate help they need.

The 3D Printer

Now, if you haven’t heard about 3D-printing, some would describe it as “the next industrial revolution.” It really is that big of a deal. 3D printers can print physical 3D objects that are designed on a computer using a CAD (Computer Aided Design).

3D printers have also made their way into the “health sciences” department as well. Scientists have gone as far as making edible food with 3D printers. Research is also going into printing human “organs” too. Just think of the possibilities! Someone who has previously lost a kidney can recover that kidney by cloning one with a 3D printer.

Titan Arm

The titan arm was developed by a group of students from the University of Pennsylvania. This bionic arm is an exoskeleton that is attached to someone’s real arm, and is used to aid heavy lifting. The arm itself can help someone easily lift an extra 40 pounds.

This product is definitely showing promise because it works well, and it can be applied to many things such as construction-work, heavy-lifting jobs, firefighter-work, etc.

So these are 5 recent inventions that I feel will definitely serve a purpose in the near future. They’re not in any particular order, because I think they’re all outstanding innovations. What are some inventions that haven’t made this list that you think will help shape a better future for humans?
