Light After Dark
Light After Dark
Q1: Inexpensive to manufacture small detachable to the ground device; problem: how to protect it from being stolen from the highways?
Idea Description
Turbine/generator/rechargeable battery/light - very small and easy to install devices along the highways as self-contained lighting systems to mark the edges of the highways and providing after dark safety improvements. The wind from moving vehicles rotates turbines producing electricity stored and used for lighting.
This is another open idea for everyone to develop and benefit from.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
Develop and deploy in the US and elsewhere.

I like your idea; I want to improve your odds of getting funding I will vote for your idea if you will vote for mine. My idea is for a web site that raises money for inventors and entrepreneurs called New Idea website Check out my idea blob submission and visit New Idea Website and see what I can do for you. http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/4060-NEW-IDEA-WEBSITE The need for jobs is one of the biggest problems that a democratic government faces because creating jobs is an unwanted byproduct of business and industry. The reason I say its unwanted is the more jobs a business creates the more its expenses are and the smaller it’s bottom-line. If business and industry have their way they would run their companies with no jobs at all no management or labor. To deal with this dilemma I pr…moreopose a federal venture capital carrot fund that literally pays entrepreneurs to create jobs. The investment bank would be expected invest in seed level startup projects like yours and to lose money at a specified dollar per jobs ratio for example during hard times that figure may be as high as $20,000 per job and good times the figure may be as low as five dollars per job, by controlling this ratio the fed could roughly control unemployment. The bank will be expected to fund novel products and services and stay away from things like restaurants that will simply draw jobs from other restaurants or moving factories from one part of the country to another. If you like this idea vote for it and send the congressional letter from the website. Sincerely Frank Scruggs
Dont they have reflectors already Mamu? I like the idea because even with the reflectors there is not much lighting. This would make a lot of sense especially in upstate regions where it gets dark earlier. Adequate lighting can really have a positive effect on the mind. Also, if it is generated without any wastage of resources, even better. Good luck!
Have you thought about having reflectors on the edges instead?
This is an interesting comment! Can you build a prototype to see if it works?
