Force majeure mechanics


Every house could have flying balloons on their terrace to ride on during earthquake, flood. 

Specially designed helicopters to produce rain during forest fire. 

A machine fitted in specific gaps of a forest to alert firemen much before the fire outbreak. (remote sensing) 

When a house catches fire, a machine that would auto-alert the nearest fire station. (remote sensing) 

Like every flat house has an indicator inside the flat, every building can have a master indicator outside the house that can be switched off when the building catches fire. 

Instead of using water pumps to extinguish fire, there could be some specially designed blankets that could prevent the fire from spreading. Know it sounds weird, but just letting out-of-the-box thinking take its course. 

Evacuation is a major concern during fire. Every house might have en elevator attached outside the building from every floor that helps the residence evacuate during fire. If we could have an elevator inside, we might as well have one outside. Fear of theft could be handled through remote sensing. 

When there's a shipwreck, instead of lifeboats, we could also have para-rise (chute gravitates, rise can help passengers fly), this could come handy during sea-storms too, why get into lifeboats on the sea during storms. 

Villages get most adversely affected during floods. We could have a tower in every village where villagers can take shelter during floods. Help, in terms of food and drinking water can be distributed more easily. Every tower should have the capacity to host the population of its village. At other times, the tower can be creatively used for other purposes. 

Next-gen gadgets

Was wondering

If egg-boilers could pop up messages when it's half-boiled, hard-boiled! 

If a fridge had an in-built stabilizer and an auto power saver that could keep it on even after a power cut, for at least 6 hours! 

If air-conditioners would be as small as mobile and if they could easily fit in anywhere in a room instead of being ceremoniously installed?
