The Best Inventions Ever On Display

by Evan Shamoon on April 7, 2008 at 11:32 AM



The Guardian has a great slide show of images from Geneva, Switzerland, where the 36th International Exhibition of Invention is taking place. It's the world's largest expo devoted to innovation, with more than 700 exhibitors from 45 countries showing off their ideas.

They range from a self-balancing electric unicycle from Slovenia, to a hula-hoop shaped invention for viewing one's head and hair, to a French exercise and therapy device for people with cervical problems (not that cervical). There's an Italian bed-making device, and a Brazilian toilet apparatus that flushes with only three liters of water instead of the standard nine.

Awesome ideas. Now let's see someone put them into production.
