30+ Borderline Genius Inventions That Will Actually Make Your Life Easier

New inventions get put out into the world every day, but sometimes, they’re kind of pointless. Thankfully, there are also plenty of awesome inventions that could potentially make our lives infinitely more awesome. Below, we’ve compiled 33 of them.

Some of these gadget are still in the early phases of design (or simply exist as concepts in the inventor’s head), but we’re hoping they’ll all be for sale as soon as possible Especially #30- I would totally buy an entire set of those.

1. A clear kayak so you can see the ocean floor.

Why take a glass-bottomed boat ride when you’ve got your own? With a boat like this, you’d never miss a thing going on around you while you’re paddling through the waves.

We want to believe that this works as well as it looks, because if so, it would change the breakfast game forever.

13. The drone camera that sits on your wrist.

Though it’s only in its conceptual stages, this camera could detach itself from your wrist and use propellers to fly a few feet away to take a picture. In other words, if this actually gets made, we will know the future has truly arrived.

14. The scuba gear of the future.
