Want to go ghost hunting?

Remember the movie Ghostbusters?

The film stars Billy Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis as three eccentric parapsychologists in New York City, who start a ghost catching business.




For all of you who always wanted to do the same here is an innavative tool to work with: The Ghost Hunting Starter Kit. As written on redferret.net the kit comes with serveral gizmos.





The EMF meter for example measures electro-magnetic disturbances (don’t be fooled by the TV), while the motion sensor detects activity in complete darkness. Along with those bits, you’ve also got some kind of listening device, a thermometer and a useful how-to book to deliver handy tips.


So catch them if you can…

Coffee made with the help of science

Do you also start your day with a cup of coffee? Here is an innovative idea, which may not substitute George but at least modern coffee machines: The Vacuum Brewer. It´s easier than you might think, just make your coffee with science!


As described on thinkgeek.com Vacuum brewing is exceptionally effective at extracting all the flavor from the coffee grounds without the more „chewy“ texture of the french press method.


Now how does it work? With vapor pressure! During the process of brewing, the rapid expansion and contraction of gasses pushes the liquid from vessel to vessel.

Color up your invention – but watch out how!

What´s your favourite color? Red, blue, yellow?

Today the United Inventors Association of America released an interesting article about colors and which effect on consumers they have. Being an inventor who wants to give his product the right design colors are very important. Why? Because they evoke emotions.

Red: Sparks ideas of love, passion, heat and danger.

Yellow: Is a color synonymous with happiness

Orange: Retains the energy and welcoming of yellow, while keeping the heat and passion of red

Bright Blue: soothing, cool, and pleasant

Medium Blue: Coldness, feelings of loneliness and depression

Navy Blue: suggests formality, authority, and tradition

Green: Money, wealth, affluence but also nature and soothing.

Black: Commands respect. Simple bold with richness and honor.

Aqua: reminds of peace, calm and still.



So as an inventor designing a product you should also keep the color wheel in mind: choose well and consider which emotions people should get when seeing your finished invention!

Some of you may say this is a great idea, others won´t have a good feeling. We for our part, just want to indroduce you this invention, without judging.

Babyology says depending on which way you look at it, the Roller Buggy by Valentin Vodev transforms an ordinary pram into a scooter or a scooter into a pram. This clever convertible lets you take to the streets at a cracking pace but switch back to traditional pram mode once you hit a crowd.





Considering the safty issue Roller Buggy has a specially-made hydraulic brake system with two disk brakes that allow to reduce the speed and to stop. There is also a safety belt on the child’s seat. The child should be older than 1,5 years and the speed shouldn’t be faster than 15 km/h. The safety of the child has priority! is written in a product description.

The importance of intellectual property intensive industries

Yesterday we told you about the World IP Day. Today we want to show you the importance of intellectual property intensive industries. As the United States Patent and Trademark Office announced in a press release according to a comprehensive report of the U.S. Commerce Department entitled “Intellectual Property and the U.S. Economy: Industries in Focus,” intellectual property (IP)-intensive industries support at least 40 million jobs and contribute more than $5 trillion dollars to, or 34.8 percent of, U.S. gross domestic product (GDP).


“This first of its kind report shows that IP- intensive industries have a direct and significant impact on our nation’s economy and the creation of American jobs,” said Commerce Secretary John Bryson. “When Americans know that their ideas will be protected, they have greater incentive to pursue advances and technologies that help keep us competitive, and our businesses have the confidence they need to hire more workers. That is why this Administration’s efforts to protect intellectual property, and modernize the patent and trademark system are so crucial to a 21st century economy that is built to last.”

While IP is used in virtually every segment of the U.S. economy, the report identifies the 75 industries that use patent, copyright, or trademark protections most extensively. These “IP-intensive industries” are the source – directly or indirectly – of 40 million jobs. That’s more than a quarter of all the jobs in this country. Some of the most IP-intensive industries include: Computer and peripheral equipment, audio and video equipment manufacturing, newspaper and book publishers, Pharmaceutical and medicines, Semiconductor and other electronic components, and the Medical equipment space.

The report has several important findings, including:

• IP-intensive industries contributed $5.06 trillion to the U.S. economy or 34.8 percent of GDP in 2010.

• 40 million jobs, or 27.7 percent of all jobs, were directly or indirectly attributable to the most IP-intensive industries in 2010.

• Between 2010 and 2011, the economic recovery led to a 1.6 percent increase in direct employment in IP-intensive industries, faster than the 1.0 percent growth in non-IP-intensive industries.

• Merchandise exports of IP-intensive industries totaled $775 billion in 2010, accounting for 60.7 percent of total U.S. merchandise exports.
