I'm trying to make a timeline of future inventions and technology. It would be from 2017-2050, with each year having one invention. One per year, every year starting now and ending in 2050. Can you help me? You don't have to explain how the technology works, just an idea. 33 ideas

In 2017 a service that does your home work for you.

2018- a washing machine that doesn't break down 3 months after the warranty fails.

^^
They will be programmed to do so 1 month instead of 3 after warranty falls

2019 Bacon flavored toothpaste

2020 the T-1000

2025 will be the year of the denuclear air filtration system.
After the war with korea and syria and anyone else there will be huge amounts of nuclear fallout. A air filtration system will be made and only available to the wealthy.
Biodome will be the new reality by 2030

2049
Variable size sails and boards.
2048
sails which generate their own wind.

2021 - Centrifugal birthing machine.

It harnesses Newtonian physics to make childbirth easier as.

Expected mother lies on table. The table rotates at high speeds.

Baby is born with ease due to the assisting centrifugal force...

I've got a fair idea how that would work out if you suggested it to the missus

Every Parent wants super kids.

Just have to let her know Superman was born that way.

Year 2020. Uknown deadly virus outbreak transmitted via the smart phones whipping out 1 billion of the world population mostly iPhone/Samsung users.
All the smart phones are burnt down. The iPhone/Samsung etc managers/investors are executed.
Elon Musk flees to Mars.
Life gets back to normal afterwords.

From 2017 on wards - Invent a Government that knows how to run a country and not screw it up!

this was in 2012 .......................

Zero point energy! Don't know how you got away with posting that here Sands. Videos like that should reside in Heavy weather. Along with flat planets and mini nukes. Come on moderators, be alert.

^ If that works as claimed it violates the laws of thermodynamics. Just sayin.
(IOW it's bull****.)

Beat me to it Ian.

Lots of ramifications from genetic mapping and manipulation (CRISPR etc). - Home made viral plagues?
Bacteria that eat plastic?

At least one elegant solution to global warming and a bunch of crude ones.

A cure for stupidity?

2017, the year Maximum7 offers his first post asking for future invention ideas, which leads him to a famous life as the greatest inventor since Thomas Edison.

2034

Humanoid Robot Maid

2016 will be the death of red thumbs and the invention of 4 green thumbs per post (or zero for this post)

woops im outside the time line

I am looking for interested investors. This wonderful machine will take the hassle of having a piss, or doing a dump. Not only will it be a piece of piss to do the 2 most mundane tasks, it can potentially make them pleasurable too ! Please read on...

This machine will undo your pants, hold your willy, gives it a proper shake before returning it to the rightful place. As for the other task, too graphic to lay it out here. You will need to log on to my web site to see all the details.

So what you need to do in order not to miss out on this once in a lifetime opportunity to strike it rich?

Just send me your bank details, and I will take care of the rest. I already have a robot that will automatically deduct the right sums of money off your account. So please don't wait any longer. Only the first 30 callers will automatically be accepted. After that, the less lucky one will have to go into a draw. There are way too many interest already. So hurry.

How much, you asked. $30/month.

By the way, next year's model is able to do one more task. It will also feed you as well. So eating, and going to the toilet are just so easy with my invention.

By 2020 ALL ( even American ) windsurfers will know the difference between planning and planing. Does my goddamn head in, for crying out loud it's the core of our sport.

Ah yes. Rosetta (Rosie 2.0) was released back in 2044, 10 years after the first model.

George went down to the local Miss Mauds Robot Maid hire and signed up for a one week trial of Rosie 2.0.

Rosetta took half the time to do the household tasks but for some reason Mum wasn't so keen on keeping her.

Even use a number for numbers when typing (does use of 5-oh and 6.2 in same sentence look wrong to everyone or just me )

None of us hold much hope for those kitting though.....

It's a no brainer. Anyone who has read books by Peter F Hamilton and the regeneration treatment that takes your age back to whenever you choose. Mostly around 22 - 23. Your brain has an implant recording your memory and keeps an update on the cloud in case of accidental death and a new body is grown from dna.
Fix all the mistakes you made first time round like not selling your favourite house or board. Accumulate wealth and knowledge.
Will someone please hurry up and invent this tech as I'm rapidly running out of time.
