Forward Thinking Inventions – SMOKE the damn thing

moresnow — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 23:57:46 +0000

We Invent for….

1. Fun

2. Profit

3. Humanity

We try to solve with out of box ideas…..

Couple of problems that we have

1. Vaccination 10 to 50% spoil before delivery. They need to be kept cold. If they spoil kids die..

Solution: Less than 1/2watt of heat loss. Increadible insulation. You can’t reach in. Its like a coke machine and vends out vials.

2. Malaria – 259 million people sick each year every 43 seconds someone dies. 27 die during the time you read this. SoapOpera lifestyle….crazy complex disease. That’s what make it intersting.

Soluion: Shoot the damn pests with a non lethal laser and figure out that the insect we want to kill is the mosquito versus bees and smoke its wings off.

The last evening at TED@Palm Springs the entire TED group went and saw the first 30 minues of Ian Olds’ film, “Fixer: The Taking of Ajmal Naqshbandi”, a powerful film of the ugly side of journalism in the face of war. Gucci Tribeca Film Fund supported this but overall the Gucci group wasted alot of cardboard that they handed out……
