Mech Powered Cellphone

Might not be much demand for this, but how about putting in a wheel, a bit of which sticks out of of your cellphone that people can turn by rubbing the phone on the carpet, furniture, etc to charge the phone? That way you'll always have some power available if you're stuck somewhere.

Autopatentwriting

Get a real life 10 day MBA (contacts) without leaving your job. Get

you're not satisfied and get a full refund and return to your job.

Active Noise Canceler

No, not headphones. How do you cancel out a hammer drill? Take a noise source, you could put sensors around it - in 3 dimensional symmetry and sense the noise. Then, further downstream, put audio sources that will generate an out-of phase version of the noise so as to cancel it and make it not audible outside the sphere of the cancelers. But, noise contains energy and, if you don't hear the noise outside of the sphere - it means that the cancelers absorbed the noise - so where did the energy go? The transducers you're using to generate the out-of-phase noise are somehow absorbing energy. How does that work?

TI-RFID and the End of the Hit and Run Era

Because, if another vehicle is within a 1 metre of yours, both vehicles register the information of the other through RFID - once the tags are installed. Won't happen overnight, but this should be done - will be very useful in countriels like India where the traffic is really chaotic.
