ReWalk Exoskeleton |
Offering a new alternative to the wheelchair, ReWalk gives individuals with severe walking impairments the ability to stand and walk again. Although still in the testing phase (and strapped with a $150,000 price tag), it's a bold step for those seeking freedom from disability.
DIY Solar Tracker |
Energy prices ain't gonna get much cheaper anymore, so why not take a tip from YouTube user "fanman1981" and install your own solar panel to your roof (instead of watching your gas bill prices go through it).
Head Tracking iPad/3D Display |
Oh, Steve Jobs probably LOVES this. Not content with simply cracking the device, Jérémie Francone and Laurence Nigay have made the first ever 3D iPad (spoiler alert: it's not really 3D, it simply tracks the users head via the camera).
Mind Controlled Television |
Sure, on the surface a mind-controlled television seems pretty darn cool, but then inventors Alon Bukai and Ofir Benyamin have to go and be all benevolent, making it specifically for those suffering from ALS (a.k.a. Lou Gehrig's Disease).
Portable XBox 360 |
Ben Heck -- known through the world of button mashers as a brilliant, game-modding madman -- created this incredibly awesome travel XBox for the gamer on the go (and who doesn't mind spending some extra time at the security checkpoint at the airport). Granted, there's no medical or social cause that this would remedy, but it would definitely be a cure for boredom.
