krisb Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Up early working on a new project and was thinking about the "future"...what futuristic gadget would you most like to have right now?: Jetpack (that really works), Hover car or laser gun perhaps?............

zeichen Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 I would absolutely love star trek's transporter or the next generation's hologram rooms. I think the opposite of a microwave would be cool. Having the ability to instantly freeze foods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having the ability to instantly freeze foods. Instant can of cold beer: Hold a can of beer in a well insulated glove. Hit it with a blast of propane gas. Ice cold beer...no sparks please! I'm sure it would chill about anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeichen Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Yes willy, that is a well known trick, but it really isn't environmentally friendly or practical for larger scale. It takes a lot more than just a blast. It uses quite a lot of gas. A breathalizer installed in a cellphone to test yourself before driving also an app that made it impossible to text or call if you are drunk. So many of my friends have made stupid calls when drunk that either ruined possible relationships or hurt their jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How would that work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogandave Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 Instant freezing is available using liquid Nitrogen,just not cheap. Seriously, how often do you have a warm beer you want to make cold? You can store it cold, and drink it when you want, unlike food that you have to store cold, and heat to eat. How about an electric blanket that keeps you cool rather than warm?

zeichen Posted May 16, 2015 Share Posted May 16, 2015 " The only way an app could know if your drunk is if you told it you were right? How would that work?" It is very easy for the cell phone to have a sensor that you breath into. The app itself would lock your phone until you could blow a low enough BAL. They have apps already that lock your phone for a set number of hours, but this would be tied to the sensor. Personally, I think all cars should have them as well. It would be great to eliminate drunk driving completely. "Seriously, how often do you have a warm beer you want to make cold?" Again, I am talking about freezing things not just making them cold. But it is very often that most people have warm liquids that they want cool. If you buy a large box of beverages they are seldom in the cooler when you buy them. Flash freezing is very common commercially but for home cooks we often have to wait a few hours to chill or freeze things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mogandave Posted May 17, 2015 Share Posted May 17, 2015 I think think cars are complex (and expensive) enough without adding in a breathalyzer. Seems like another example of everyone being punished for the actions of a few a-holes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but more than the alcohol concerns (certainly part of the analysis), our breath could be analysized for blood/suger balance (diabetic), and other health indicators. Think they are working on the analysis already although I don't remember seeing anything ready for market. Hmmm, how about extending again, remember Dr. McCoy having a handheld analysizer? There have been citations of dogs able to denote cancers.....now, how to get a dog's ability into a gadget! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
