Ice Dogs (Robotic Medical Rescue Dogs)

Futuristic, Pets, Robots, SciFi, Health, TechTom WalmaComment

Idea: To use Boston Dynamics robotic dogs to save the lives of people whose hearts have stopped by jumping on their chests and rapidly cooling their bodies, thus giving rescuers an extra hour or two to revive them. Also: "ice dogs" roaming the neighborhood looking for medical emergencies and, in the meantime, serving as police dogs and package delivery dogs; the risk of "ice dogs" sticking to your body like a frozen flagpole; robotic "hot dogs" to prevent malfunctioning "ice dogs" from freezing healthy people to death

Action Dads

TV Show, Movie, ParentingJohnny MocnyComment

Idea: A reality TV show where a family temporarily replaces the dad with a washed-up action movie star, such as Steven Seagal or Brian Bosworth. The action star would complain that his whole body aches and begrudgingly participate in family-oriented events organized by the reality show. He could be so horrible that he makes the family more appreciative of their real dad, or he could sleep with the mom and destroy the family. Also: action moms; solving every family problem using violence (for example, beating up a hostile neighbor); the family could help the action star more than the action star helps the family; the dad could temporarily live the action star's life and act in a SyFy channel B-movie involving a natural disaster and a random predatory animal

Good Netflix

App, Movie, TV Show, Business IdeaBrett MercerComment

Idea: A redesign of Netflix which is actually good. It'll be good because a) the shows are better (obviously), and because b) it'll offer a much more immersive experience. It'll support immersion into a particular movie or TV show by including commentaries, Arsenio Hall talk show promotional segments, bloopers, and other bonus content related to the movie or TV show. It'll also support immersion into the time period of the movie or TV show by showing TV commercials from the time period (and allowing you to buy the old-timey products in the commercials), by enabling censorship rules from the time period, by simulating audio/video quality problems of the time period (such as tracking issues), and by simulating other inconveniences from the time period (such as stopping the video stream at 1:00 AM to simulate the local TV broadcast tower shutting down for the night)

Covid-Era Wedding DJ In A Box

Business Idea, Tech, Silliness, Event or ActivityMatt HarperComment

Idea: A DJ-in-a-box for a Covid-era wedding (or other social event). It'd be extremely cheap because the socially-distanced event would only have around 10 people in attendance and therefore wouldn't justify the cost of a normal human DJ. It'd consist of an oscillating fan with some laser pointers taped to it, a pack of three "smart light bulbs" to put around the venue, and a Spotify playlist which you say is customized but is actually the same playlist for every wedding. Also: a self-hating DJ; optional add-ons like a holographic DJ, a celebrity Cameo for a wedding toast, and an entire wedding-in-a-box; a sad single person ordering a DJ-in-a-box to use alone in his apartment
