Self Cleaning Windshield

The Hidra concept car from Pininfarina automotive designer Leonardo Fioravanti will feature a windshield that repels both water and dirt, hence eliminating the need for wipers. This windshield was developed using nanotechnology, featuring a quartet of layers to help it do its job. The top layer is made out of titanium oxide that repels water quickly, while the second layer pushes dirt off to its sides, keeping the windshield clean. There is a sensor located in the third layer, while the fourth layer is powered by electricity to run the show. I say, won't it be pretty sucky if somebody breaks your windshield to get to that GPS system inside? It'd be a shame, since the replacement will probably cost you an arm, a leg and a kidney.

Custom Installed Residential Bowling Alleys

By Andrew Liszewski
I’m not thrilled with the idea of owning a house, mostly because of all the added responsibilities like cutting the lawn, shoveling snow and having to be that mean neighbor who always confiscates baseballs and Frisbees that land in my yard. But on the other hand a house allows you to do things like install a dedicated home theater or even cooler, your own bowling alley.
Quadruple layer bike

Stacking up four bikes as shown in the picture is claimed easier for the rider to balance. This sounds like something really against the law of gravity and balance in general. And even some might guess this photo was fake, which the old man riding on this quadruple layer bike, could have fallen in a dismal crash after the picture was taken.
Stay Cool Working Out

The Cycool is designed for people who hate working out and hate sweating. It goes without saying if you work out, you’re going to sweat - thus we have millions of overweight (but dry) people around the world. With the Cycool, put those sweat gland in check. The system is powered by your own peddling. The faster you peddle, the faster the fan.
