What do you wish to be invented?

We have GPS, pills to make our dicks hard, and machines that can make mounds and mounds of coleslaw. What is left that you would like to see invented?
 
I don't want to get too specific in case anyone tries to steal my idea, but it involves a large saddle, a flexible rod with string attached, salmon, and a sedated bear.

That has already been invented, but the patent is classified so it will never be sold to the public. :(


I wish we had some things from Start Trek, like Replicators, Transporters, Holodecks, etc.

With Replicators we could feed everyone on the planet and make anything in a few seconds.

With Transporters we could go anywhere on the planet in a few seconds, and eventually anywhere in the solar system, and maybe the galaxy.

With Holodecks we could have virtual sex with anyone, porn stars, celebrities, or your best friends hot mom. :D
Do anything, too scary or stupid to do in real life, without getting hurt. :cool:

Lucky bastards who will live in the 30th century, give or take a few centuries, will have all this cool stuff.

IMAGINE
Yes most of the items we see in sci-fi movies and films that are not available now would be nice.

However, at this point I would like to see the hover/flying cars that have been predicted so many times in pop culture media/references... what's taking so long?!

Yup. The cars and hoverboards foreseen in the 2005 of the Transformers movie (made in 1986) never quite materialized, nor the contact with alien races. Thankfully neither did the fashion.

Holodeck for me. Or preferably, the fembot completely indistinguishable from the real thing, programmed to fall madly in love with its owner. That'll do me. I'm not turning my holodeck on and off every time I want a cuddle, just give me my artificial wife.

A bit more mundane perhaps but certainly practical for everyday use:

A hoseless garden hose (drives me nuts reeling those fucking things in, always getting kinked up)
A cordless electrical cord (Tesla supposedly invented this decades ago, same problems as with the garden hose, why don't we have this?)
A hangerless clothes hanger (anyone who does laundry knows why I hate these things.....there's gotta be a better way)

Back To The Future II or III

I'd like a Camaro, Transformer of not.

It's 2014...why aren't we shaving with small lasers yet?

There's nicks and cuts with traditional shaving then there's "Oh shit, I just burned a small hole in my retina whilst shaving my unibrow."



I can imagine the lines when Nike releases the actual power-laced versions next year:

 
A 'common sense' machine :catpopcorn:

M-m-m-m ... that easily beats my "compassion pills" idea (meant without sarcasm).

What I would like to be invented is ... a portable studio system that would help the user achieve outstanding production quality for recording an album, be that comedy (you can dub on some laughs later) or music. The prices will be high, but the cost of recording at a bigger, full-fledged studio should go down. (Would be much cooler if that invention could also print copies, but one could only dream of that. :) )

An episode of Star Trek had Worf break his back and become paralyzed. They cut him open and grew a new spinal cord in his back, or something like that. I want that except able to do it with all damaged organs as well.
 
^ Where? In the U.S. ? None of them. Maybe in Israel they are working on those ... and if they do succeed, there will probably be very few such units manufactured and sold.

I think they could very well be working on them in the U.S.

We may never find out about them, but the military, NASA ,NSA and CIA will.
