Clever Designs That Are Solving People's Everyday Problems
A Mini Golf Course Uses Biodegradable Balls for When They Fall in Water
When this mini golf course opened up beside the beach, they figured out how to solve their golf ball problem in a way that was good for the environment. Instead of regular golf balls, they made special ones out of fish meal that are meant to fall into the sea when they reach the 18th hole. This way, players feel like they've helped the underwater ecology, and the business probably feels good about the impact as well.
This Supermarket Grows It's Own Vegetables for Even Fresher Produce
This grocery store is setting the stage for the future of farming by growing veggies in their own greenhouse. With pink LED grow lights, this self-sufficiency lets the store try growing different kinds of seasonal veggies all year long, so they can use the right elements for each salad. It sounds like a good idea for a business that other grocery stores might use. Maybe this is the future of farming!
A Pump Bottle Made to Get Out Every Last Drop
It may have taken a long time to get here, but finally, a pump bottle has been made to get as much product out as possible. The body tapers down to a cone-like base, which gives it a unique design. The base collects the rest of the product at the tip, and the pump goes all the way to the bottom. It looks like someone has finally made a bottle that is worth the money.
Miniature Tents on Shelves Give Shoppers a Sense of What They're Dealing With
We hope the person who thought of this idea got a lot of money. Some businesses don't have enough room to show off all of their camping tents, and even those that do might not be able to use that space as well as they could. That's why these little tent replicas that help shoppers understand what they're buying are a terrific idea. Also, they are quite cute, which doesn't hurt.
A Board That Helps Children With Special Needs Communicate With Others
A playground in Ireland put up a communication board to let kids talk to each other when they can't talk to each other. This visual board is great for youngsters with autism, hearing loss, or language problems since it makes them point instead of pronouncing words. Some youngsters are better at expressing themselves than others, and this tool can really assist close that gap. If only they were put at playgrounds all across the world.
A Bathroom for Service Animals That Can't Go Potty Outside
People often forget about the bathroom needs of service animals, but airports are starting to do more to meet the needs of our four-legged friends. More and more places are putting in "dog relief" facilities because dogs can go for hours without going outside. That's why it's so crucial for airports and other places to meet their needs. A service dog can't execute their job well if their own needs aren't satisfied.
Supermarket Shopping Carts That Have a Crate to Put Your Pet
This pet-friendly shopping cart might be the best choice for folks who need to get a few groceries but don't want to leave their dog outside the store. If your dog is little enough, you can just place them in the crate and go about your day. It shouldn't affect other buyers who might be worried about food hygiene because the dog wouldn't be running around freely.
After all, no one loves to hear a puppy cry for its owner. There would be a lot more happy buyers if these were available all around the world.
A Tire That Automatically Measures Tread Depth Without the Need for Other Tools
This smart tire is better than all the others! It features a built-in mechanism for measuring tread depth, which makes driving safer and easier in the long term. It not only makes other tools and devices unnecessary, but it also lets drivers know if their automobile is in danger because the tread depth is too low. If that's the case, they can do what has to be done.
Having the tread depth assessed automatically may also help the tires last longer, so there's really no negative. We can't wait for this technology to become more common.
A Permanent Street Bicycle Pump Positioned Right by the Bike Lock Area
This bike pump was made for people who ride bikes. This city put up a permanent bike pump in the best spot, where cyclists can't miss it. This pump has been drilled, bolted, and cemented into the ground to keep it from being stolen, and it's only a meter away from the bike like area. It would be great if additional cities did the same and made it easier for people to fix their bikes.
They can also be found on several college campuses in Europe, which sounds like a great place for students who are always on the go. But Sweden seems to have spent more on public bike pumps than most other countries.
