A trip into the future of transport
The transport infrastructure for City One (a city in 2050) is shown along with an example lunch trip. I don't see anyone driving cars. You could imagine this city being built in China where they already have maglev (magnetic levitation) trains. http://www.innovationfuturespecialist.co.uk/gallery/cityone.html

A hotel room that floats on water
You'll soon be able to sleep on a bed in a floating capsule and look into the stars while it drifts to an island overnight. That?s the experience a major theme park in Nagasaki Prefecture plans to offer you by the end of this year. http://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2017/03/06/business/huis-ten-bosch-inn-boast-spheric-sleeping-capsules-drift-isle-attactions/

Clean drinking water from saltwater and sunlight
Salt water is poured into the top container, which then gets heated by the sun and converted to steam by solar energy. The increase in pressure forces the steam to travel through a tube to the lower container where it re-condenses. The clean drinking water gathers at the bottom of the lower container. https://borgenproject.org/eliodomestico-water-purifier/

Folding bicycle helmet
You know that bicycle helmets save lives and prevent brain injuries. Unfortunately, they are inconvenient to carry around with you after rides and are easily stolen if left with your bike. Maybe you're one of the millions of riders who doesn't wear a helmet for this reason, even knowing the risks. The Morpher Helmet may be a practical solution. Due to an imaginative concept and design, the helmet folds flat so it can be stored easily in a backpack or briefcase. See https://www.morpherhelmet.com
