Hello World Inventions I thought of as a kid.

[HalooftheMuse]

Always go with your own instincts... and never listen to naysayers!!! 5*****

[merishane]

yea but when your a kid you dont know diffrent.

thanks!!!!!

[Psychentist]

It just goes to show you that when you have an idea, get to the patent office, posthaste!

[merishane]

true!

[rainbowpagan]

I bet you where a wild kid

[merishane]

just as wwild as i am now LOL!

[mdragon180]

I think that TV idea is a great idea! I bet you it will happen one day - just give it time. :-)

[merishane]

i think they are probably all ready doing it.

[merishane]

Thanks!

:D Great vid! I once had this crazy idea called the automatic restaurant. Of course, I was told : "That. Wouldn't. Work."

I shrugged off all the naysaying, and about 5 years later I actually drew up some designs and sent them into a patenting agency. They replied, telling me that McDonald's of all people had filed for that same patent only 6 days earlier. [Cry...] Now they actually have one. If I had submitted it when I first had the idea, McDonald's would be paying me royalties right now.

[merishane]

LOL! thats crazy.

[Psychentist]

Actually, this very issue it the sole reason I got a degree in computer/electronics engineering. Unfortunately, by the time I got my degree, all, and I mean ALL of my childhood ideas had been done. As an adult, I find that inventive creativity to be quite spread thin, as responsibility eats it for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I'm working on one now, but I better keep it quiet for the time being, so some corporate bigwig doesn't steal it like all my other ideas!

[merishane]

I wish i would haave went into electronics or something.

[Psychentist]

xD I wish I didn't. Its a great skill to have, but I would not suggest it as a career path. Honestly, I don't think I learned anything in college that I couldn't have learned myself from library books and the internet. I should have went to school for psychology.

[AVDJ]

there are hologram tv experiments underway. They are trying to use heat convection to make it work.

[merishane]

well theres another one of my ideas starting to work.

[tomken8dy]

I thought up the idea that everybody would have computers and they'd all be interconnected all over the world.

I also imagined calculators the size of a credit card but two or three times thicker.

I had the same idea about the halogram too!!

Full room holographic gaming would be COOL.

Kids have some crazy ideas, huh...?

[merishane]

to bad we dont know how to make those things work!

[CJCA915]

Well, in Star Trek, they had full room holographic stuff, it's called a Holodeck, unfortunately, the illusion for the show is a result of green screen, post production, lol.

Also the Star Trek photonic "holo matter"

was solid.

Holodeck food would fill you up

If the safety protocols were off holodeck weapons and characters could kill you.

[CJCA915]

yea, always make sure you got them running, or you might die unintentionally, lol.

[ThatOrangeAlien]

Thanks!

[merishane]

your welcome!

[ThatOrangeAlien]

LOL! The only idea i ever thought of was a cumputer but touchscreen and shaped like a large table

[merishane]

coolness!!!!!!

[CJCA915]

Microsoft has something similar in the works, it's called Microsoft Surface.

Demo of it:

[ThatOrangeAlien]

WOW! Now i know what merishane means, people keep copying our ideas! XD

[CJCA915]

Well, MS Surface, is just an expansion to the already existing touch capabilities, however unlike current touchscreens, that rely on grids, this technology relies on camera's instead.

[merishane]

thats what happens when you have a great imagnation and dont know how to make things work.

[merishane]

coolness!!!!

[ThatOrangeAlien]

It's great that you still keep those memories! :)

[merishane]

I just wish I would have known how to make them work!
