Lunar reflectors ~

The dark side of the moon light idea, kind of like what some of the
small cities do in Europe where they run reflectors up on top of that
mountain and they reflect light down into the valley so that they can
have sunlight instead of always being in the mountains shadow.


Build the base on the dark side of the moon and then build towers with
reflectors that could beam, reflect light down to the base and then
you can set them on a day and night cycle so that even though you're
on the dark side of the moon you still feel like you're getting a
sunrise and a sunset and you can maintain a certain circadian rhythm.

Roving table ~

Design an end table with motorized wheels and a robotic brain and then
program it to be in certain positions in a room or a house at specific
times of the day or when a person is located in a specific place in
the room.


For example, when somebody sits in the rocking chair by the fireplace,
the end table could move into place so that the person has something
to put their drink on or their book on or whatever. Then after the
person leaves or after bedtime, the end table moves back to where it's
out of the way and not beside the rocking chair.


The next day, it could move into position beside the couch or take a
position in the corner waiting for the appropriate time to come out
with the remotes or some video viewing. Give it a try!

Bluetooth peripheral glasses ~

Rig some bluetooth enabled glasses with LED lights on the stems within
range of peripheral vision. The LED lights can be used to flash
messages, direction to turn, or notifications when a message comes in
it someone specific comes near.

Autodrive indicator lights ~

Add them to vehicles being driven by machines. Then people can adjust
their driving style based on the warning lights on the self-driven
vehicles.
