If you could invent something, what would it be?

For a school project, I have to design and create a working prototype of a new product to be brought to the market, and my professor said that all the answers come from problems. So in order to get some ideas, I thought I'd ask the NS community about some skiing related (or other) issues/inconveniences you guys might have that could be fixed by some new invention.
Any input would be fantastic, and if your idea is feasible I would definitely bring it to my group and make it. Thanks so much guys, I'm stoked to hear some ideas.
Note: Due to time/equipment restrictions, only mostly mechanical products can be made.
 
i always dreamed of modifying a rockingchair in such way that i can rock it so hard that i'm inverted.....
 
yesss. round legs. (like they go all around) and a seatbelt so you cant fall out upside down.
 
but make it on a little halfpipe type of thing with wheels so it rolls good. that way it wouldnt be rolling around causing problems and shit
 
double spring breaks... if you know what I mean. so that, when you eject a ski while going switch, it won't blow your breaks.
 
oh good call. but make it so if youd like you can take it out of the pipe and go shred around.
 
I would make an efficient renewable energy source that gave tons of power and was portable. That would be sick, oh yea, and not polluting
 
Transporter room like Startrek so I could beam myself up to the mountains every weekend and not have to deal with the I-70 Parade Of Gapers.
 
i was thinkin a program on the internet where you could input a picture and it would find that picture on the internet. i bet thats already out there though.
 
i always thought about urban street skis, like skis with wheels at the end. you could go to the skatepark and do rails or go and build yourself a jump on a hill, i would buy them.
 
I remember for an invention contest thing these kids made a skateboard for ice. They took a skate deck and added 4 ice skate blades to it

it would be super easy to make yet still cool and you could try it out at an ice rink or if you find some ice somewhere
 
a super suit, one with good breathability, flexibility... basically one that you can put on and do anything you could without one on. The suit has to protect you from any fall, case, overshoot, nut, scorp, reverse scorp, knee to the chin, shinbang, concussion and anything else that comes with skiing?
 
realistically i would love to invent a machine that could turn smoke into coal. That would win the nobel prize hands fucking down.

unrealistically, i want an xbox controller that wirelessly controlls my legs, so when i skate all i have to do is use the control and the "flick it" control scheme to skate super well.

 
already been done, it looks sick. there was a thread on it a couple days ago.
I would love to see a street ski for the summer, i know they have some but something like rollerblades and not XC street skis
 
I totally already invented these. I should post a tutorial video on how to make them or something.
 
.... and occasionally makes you breakfast? That's called a Wife. Invented ages ago but never perfected. Mine wakes me up in the morning and makes me coffee. Everything else I pretty much have to do for myself.
 
i made a technical drawing of my rocking chair concept...
almost perfect....
