Baby Monitor Wristwatch

Parenting, TechDiego AttanasioComment

Idea: A wristwatch with a dedicated baby monitor with audio, video with zoom/scroll, and possibly other sensors, because if you're in bed or sitting on the couch, you don't want to have to get up or roll over to reach a baby monitor. Also: questioning whether baby monitors are really necessary (but still feeling compelled to use one); Apple brainwashing you into accepting electronics which don't allow you to replace the battery; using a temperature-detecting camera to detect if a baby needs a diaper change

Mandatory Texting Car

Cars, Evil, SillinessDiego AttanasioComment

Idea: A car which requires you to be texting the entire time you drive it. Also: waiting to check your texts until you're driving, questioning whether you'd be allowed to drive if you didn't have friends to text, texting at parties to cope with social anxiety, autonomous cars forcing you to text if you're drunk to keep you from trying to drive

Glasses That Make Cats Look Like Dogs

Clothing, Futuristic, Pets, Silliness, TechDiego AttanasioComment

Idea: "Augmented reality" glasses that make dogs look like cats, or vice versa. Also maybe headphones, so the person who sees the cat as a dog can say a dog's name, and other people (and the cat) hear them say the cat's name. This technology would also allow everyone to live a lie, causing other people to see and hear them in a way that isn't real
