I love watching the Microsoft convention and finding new gadgets, new cars, and whatever else they can think of so, when I came across this article about what kind of inventions are coming out in 2011 I was amazed at what I saw. Wikipeers.com had this to say:
If you’ve wondered what might be some of the new inventions of 2011 here are a few of them.
1. One of the most exciting contraptions that you may encounter for 2011 is flying cars. MIT students from the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics have actually succeeded in creating and flying a winged car. This is said to be the wave of the future. The company that is reported to release the space ship looking cars is called Terrafugia. So be sure to look to the skies in 2011.
2. A new form of hybrid cars will be launched from Toyota. In 2011 you will have the option to buy hybrid minivan. The minivan is recorded to have 7 seats in it and is a great fuel efficient car. No information on prices has been found yet.
3. In China a new robot is being designed to help kids with autism. The robot is being constructed by University of Hertfordshire. The robot is said to have artificial skin and is suppose to be in a child like form. It is suppose to help kids with autism to help them learn how to socialize better and interact better with their peers.
4. Edible houses are on the list for 2011. These houses are said to be run by wind, rain, sun and garbage. The house is supposed to be comfortable and affordable. Students at the University of Maryland are designing and building the house to be staged in 2011 at the National mall.
These are just a few of the ideas for 2011. They have already started constructing them and getting them ready for selling and research in 2011. I’m sure more inventions will come for 2011.
Now, I am truly excited about the flying cars idea. Could you imagine? Well, I wish in this kind of time I had lots of money or was rich because I so want one of these babies! My second choice would be the Hybrid minivan because I have three girls and I drive a minivan. I really am not sure where to go with the robot for autism kids. I know a little about autism but not enough to know if a robot friend would help them. Also, when I think of a little kid robot I think of two movies iRobot and The Terminator (Both make me hate the robot idea.) Wow! What do you say about an edible house? Ewe! What if it rot’s? What an imagination though, right? I don’t know I would have to get more information before I gave it thumbs up.
Alright let’s see more inventions that are to come in 2011 from another sight are: The new flu apps. This app. for iphones, droids, and other smart phones; it allows you to see where the flu virus is. I am not sure how this app. can ever be right since not everyone is going to jump on their phone and put in that they have the flu. However, the article in science and inventions says that: The WheresFlu app follows sickness incidence levels weekly and keeps track of the most top 5 affected cities in USA. The WheresFlu™ app will provide you with the result of your area or you can enter a zip code to an area you want to get information about.
Your average can be calculated as follows: It is considered low if the number of population affected is less than 5%, moderate between 5-10%, high between 10-15% and very high if more than 15% population affected.
Okay my last inventions I want to talk about are already made! Here are some of the craziest things I have come across. I just showed the pictures but you can click the link below to go and look for yourself or actually buy them. They are:

Sorry about the links and names going in the wrong spot. Not sure what happened during the post!
