What kinds of gadgets does the world need?

Like what you posted as a reply on the first post, I am considering to combine a lot of things into just one gadget. The gadget doesn't really have to be handheld or anything. It could be just a small device attached to your pocket, or over one's glasses like a display monitor (hello cybernetics), some earphones for audio and can be swiveled out of the way to be unobtrusive, and to operate them would require eye tracking or hand gestures. This way you can carry around your phone, your computer, your gps, your monitor and whatever without breaking a sweat. Comfort + Power and Speed = Instant Convenience.

I can't wait to try out a car with an automatic parking feature, although I'm guessing giving up control of the vehicle is going to be really difficult! For every day life, I'm thinking a nifty little cleaning robot that follows the kids around would be fantastic - and when the kids have gone to bed it could take the dog for a walk LOL I think gadgets in general are going to make us extremely lazy in the near future so more gadgets to get us fit without leaving the couch will follow shortly afterwards!

I was actually thinking something like this not so long time ago. My very specific thought was, what if people lived with just plain daily necessities and nothing more. I was thinking that maybe if we were not introduced to all these technology, we would be living a very simple life, no problems. I then concluded that there are just situations where ignorance can really be bliss.

There are so many things being invented or recreated daily. Honestly i am sitting here thinking what would make life a little easier for me in the way of a new invention and I can't think of anything. I suppose that I could say a cheaper, better home, something which utilizes solar energy, is well built but more environmentally sound.

I think the world will continue to advance to the max. I believe some of the invenstions have ruined out lives, and the quality of lives. But yes some have advance to be helpfil and save our lives. For example the advancement of 911 and their systems allowing faster response times, and success rate. Also, the defibulator, and other life saving equipment. But some have caused damage to us such as the obesity rate is the highest right now. Why? When I was a kid I use to be outside playing, and not coming in for hours, now kids sit infront of computer, and video games.
