2. Thermochromic Toilet Seat: Not Yet Available
Do you remember Hypercolor clothing? In case you don’t, these were clothes that changed color when they heated up thanks to thermochromatic pigments in the fabric. It did not last very long as a fashion trend, and it probably will not even get as far as those shirts did.
You may be wondering why this innovation even made it past a drawing board, or how it made it to the drawing board to begin with. Well, the idea behind Peter Crnokrak’s toilet seat was that someone coming into a bathroom could easily be able to tell how recently someone sat on the seat by whether or not it had turned yellow (um… as opposed to before when people used to have to feel the seat?) Thanks, Peter.
A couple of questions, though: Why did you choose yellow? And, what are we supposed to do with this information? Should we just find another bathroom if someone else has already used this one?
