A billion dollar idea.
« on: February 20, 2015, 12:50:13 AM »
Sometimes innovations are accidental, which is what occurred to me last night. I came up with a world changing concept that must be implemented to the market. However, I do not want to use the money I've saved for LL, but if you had a billion dollar idea, who would you go to first? (Other than a venture capitalist)

It doesn't have to be all about finance, but more of a mentor.

The space elevator. That is what I plan to build after getting my PhD.

Speak to some professors at your university or academic institution. They might point you to some useful people.

If you tell anyone your idea they might steal it.

I have--I'm doing carbon nanotube research this summer with a Dr. Heben to better understand their electrical properties, which in tern could make them useful for a space elevator.

Lol lets hope that doesn't happen

The ride would be a few days--I don't think I could handle days of elevator music lol

Good call - I just discussed with a few people at the robotics facility

I learned that the hard way a few years back xD

I got a patent written up last night - it should be on file soon!

I was afraid someone (You especially xD) would say this

Not to worry, it's only going to be useful to maybe a small handful of people on LL community, but it's targeted towards a much different audience, however, it can grow.

But don't take it as, "Cya, you guys suck, Ima add zeros to my bank account" no. My true intention is to see what others would seek if they are to be under this circumstance.

As long as it has wifi and a microwave, I would be cool with it.

I wonder what leg lengthening would be like in space...

robotic legs so that people can walk during lengthening? attached to the hips.. lol. and adjust the amt of weightbearing electronically  ... 8)
tell us once u have ur patent :P
but then again, maybe not good idea.. cos patents are not worldwide, right?someone can steal ur idea in say, spain....

Debatable, no new idea is really "new" someone else most likely thought about it before anyone else but didn't take action on it

Or they're one of those scums who make patents and don't even use them!

Perhaps but in space astronauts don't sleep as well as Earth people and in limb lengthening we need the patient to sleep as deep as they can.
