Its not science fiction anymore; now you can own a real flying bicycle. Well, if you can dig deep enough into your pocket and pay $45,000. This unique flying bicycle that can fly and run on the road equally well is designed by Hammacher Schlemmer, well-known for brilliant design ideas.

This light weight vacuum is designed using the concept of a Hoover Craft as it glides over a cushion of air while it is cleaning the floor. Light-weight at just 6.5 Lbs., this cleaner is ideal for hardwood, tile and low-cut carpet floors. It can effortlessly navigate corners and turn 360°. Just like a Hovercraft the vacuum’s body floats on air and it doesn’t have any wheels so it won’t scratch your floors. It floats behind you as you clean and comes with 10 additional attachable accessories to vacuum hard-to-reach places and furniture. It also comes with a reusable vacuum bag, and enough paper bag replacements for an entire year.

Well I would not call it a printer because it is so small, but I can’t call it a pen either because it is bigger than that. However we can call it a “Prinpen” as it prints but works like a pen. The Mini Mobile Robotic Printer is a revolutionary product developed by ZUtA Labs. It is as if you have removed the printer head/cartridge section of your printer. It is small enough to be carried in a pocket of your backpack and when needed it runs along a piece of paper laying out ink just like a fountain pen. It is, more or less, like a pen with a brain. Just like a pen the printer is not restricted by the size of the paper, so you can print virtually on any size paper and of course no more paper jams.

For the water sports enthusiasts with deep pockets here is a watercraft that will take the breath away of the onlookers. From its outward appearance it just looks like a helicopter, with a helicopter ‘fuselage’ on top of a catamaran base.

The HeliCat 22 is a catamaran designed and built for stable and safe fun in rough waters. It is fast, economical and practical for water travel, transport, and adventure. Its new design makes this eye-catching, lightweight, stable and agile catamaran safe in rough seas, and a lot of fun with great fuel economy and near zero maintenance.

I have always hoped that someone will come up with an idea of an easy-install child seat that will take out all the hassle out of installing traditional seats for my nephews and nieces when they come over for a visit. It takes so much effort and space because these seats are not only heavy and bumpy but each car has a different attachment system. I hope someday a system will emerge that simply by a push of button and a flip-flop action a part of the rear seat will turn into a child seat. Well that may be a wishful thinking now but Volvo seems to have this in mind when they came out with a design

Do you really feel clean after a shower and drying up with a towel? This was the idea behind developing the 30-Seconds Body Dryer; to eliminate towels. The technology is not new but the application is ingenious. It’s a multifunctional tool that not only conveniently dries your body but can also be used as a weighing scale.
