How do I share an idea for the next great apple product?

Imagine I-glasses.  Two outward facing screens and two inward facing screens.  Worn like glasses.  The world sees your eyes, or whatever else you might like.  You see enhanced vision on your screens.  Sourced from the two little cameras mounted in the outside corners of the glasses frames.
Google Glasses failed because they didn't offer enough function.  These glasses should start by aiming at the visually challenged by doing so much more than optical lenses can do.  Sort of like the latest advances in hearing aids.  Very soon, everyone will want their own night vision and thermal imaging powers.
I'd be surprised if you are not already working on this.  It will be huge.  Just toss me a bone if this happens to be a fresh idea.  So as to encourage folk like me who can't develop their own good ideas.
Thanks.

Thank you.  The legal position Apple is taking is clear and understandable.
I am not sure if it is wise or not.
But no matter.  I agree that this idea does not belong to me because I offered it unsolicited.  In fact, I want Apple to own it and exploit it to the fullest.
I expect no compensation.  I chose to approach Apple because I believe they are best positioned to bring this idea into the world and to do it right.
My reward will just have to be the knowledge that I made this gesture in the expectation that good might come of it for people who have a need for vision enhancement.  And that I-glasses would simply provide endless fun for the of us.
Of course I understand that perhaps many people, in the inclusive sense, may be racing to be first to announce something that literally anyone might pick up, unsolicited as it were, from the Universal Mind.

  • [Suggestion]Ideas for the next MacMini

    Several suggestions for the next MacMini:
    1. AMD Fusion "Llano" 32nm. I think you could use this APU that AMD gonna launch very soon. Why? Because it's supposed to be very power efficient, it includes the GPU inside the silicon die, it supports DX11/OGL4/OpenCL 1.1 and it can reduce the production costs a lot.
    2. Add a Bluray option. I personally would like to see a Mini with a Bluray instead of using a DVD. Why? Because I own a lot of Bluray movies like Avatar, Matrix, Inception, etc... and I want to use the Mini as HTPC. On the other hand, my backups are becoming bigger and bigger so I would need to burn 5 DVDs which is very tedious... Please, add an option to buy the Mini with an internal Bluray optical drive!
    3. Please, put the connectors on the front. Currently they're on the back side which is not really practical... If you don't want to ruin the aesthetics just place a cover which could open when you touch it, showing the connectors.
    4. USB 3.0, please... ( and keep the Firewire connector too because it's still useful! ).
    5. Please, add an option to get a SSD instead of the traditional HDD. I personally would keep the HDD option because the SSD can make the product much more expensive.
    6. Price. I think the Mini should be always in range 399-599$, specially because we're in the middle of an economical crisis and you should moderate its price.
    Thanks.

    It would be nice to have a "single" USB and SD card slot on the

    just turn it around.
    Yes! I like the clean front -- one of the main selling features.

  • Ideas For The Next Update in iTunes.

    I think that the next iTunes update needs to allows for Wifi, and i don't mean an app that you can buy from the app store but rather a feature in iTunes. for some reason i cant get bonjour to work on my crappy *** PC. so, Apple get the hint. we want wifi conectivity for ipod touches and iphones!!!! DIRECTLY IN ITUNES!!!! doen anyone agree? btw admins can you make this topic appear at the top of the page? because its of grave importance.

    I'd like for an update to not totally screw up my library of music everytime I download it. I have version 8.0.2.20, and I gotta say that it stinks!
    It seems everytime I try to play any songs, there's a "stutter" when a new song starts. Think of it as an annoying CD that won't stop skipping! I know my uploads from CD's and MP3's are good. (this annoyance didn't happen with the PREVIOUS update.) I choose to put iTunes in shuffle mode over the entire library. When this problem occurs, I stop the song, restart the song, and it plays just dandy. But when iTunes is in shuffle mode, I get the above listed issue. So I'm supposed to sit and baby the thing along? That's destroying the purpose of why I have the program in the first place. (I have a signal cable from my computer running to both home stereo systems. I use iTtunes as my home jukebox.)
    Trying to talk to a real live person is like pulling your own teeth out with a pair of pliers, and I don't have the kind of time to sit and scroll through hundreds of pages of forum topics to see if anyone else has a similar issue. I guess since I've got a 2005 Nano, an old computer, BUT a newer version of Itunes, I must be hosed.
    Any help???????

  • Photo Syncing - Ideas for the next release of iTunes

    I have noticed over the last few months that when I sync my iPhone with iTunes, it mentions that it is syncing my photos as well. The only thing that I have are the photos on the phone, nothing else marked in iTunes to transfer.
    So my question is this, in a future update, can you make it so that we can manage the Camera Roll on our iPhone (and perhaps other iDevices) so we can remove the items from our iPhone, but store them on our PC/MAC rather than doing things the hard way, and opening up a file browser to connect directly to the phone, and get them that way? (Which by the way, they are always 90 degres to the left, and have to be rotated to be upright).
    I think many of us here would benifit from this suggestion, plus allow us to place the photos in a "tree" format so that if we took Christmas pictures for example, we could create a folder called, "Christmas 2010". Any response would be welcome.

  • Why is there not an ihome compatible with the iphone 5  long after the release of the phone and next ten apple products

    i absolutley hate the adaptor for the iphone 5 it will only charge my phone and will not play music through my dock where is the new ihomes for the next gen apple products

    Or talk to the store manager or Apple Customer Relations and explain that you brought the phone in twice before the warranthy expired for the same problem and that there was no permanent solution, though if clearing out the debris fixed it previously, it's perhaps unlikely that they'll think it a defect. You can try, though. Just complaining here will accomplish nothing since we're all fellow users in these forums.

  • Give me some ideas for the project.

    Hi,folks
    I am not familiar with programming in web services. Now i have a project related to web services need to finish. I want to someone give me some ideas for the project. how can i implement the access control services. is there anyone can give me some related links for me to learn.
    Project Title: Implementing an access control service
    Project Description:
    Web services are emerging as a new approach to system construction and will make a major impact on the engineering of future business systems. They will allow a move from enterprise to inter-enterprise computing. However, with inter-enterprise computing, there are major problems with providing access to shared data, given that enterprises will not wish to share all data with partners.
    This project aims to investigate this problem by developing a prototype of an access control service that will help decide whether or not data access should be permitted. In essence, companies will outsource their access control to this service and so will not need to maintain their own access control lists for a potentially rapidly changing set of users.
    Suggested Platform: Windows or Linux
    Suggested Languages & Tools: Java

    Well, the approach I've come accross is a central server which is typically accessed indirectly from the web servers (e.g. through SOAP protocol or RMI).
    The remote server sends a user id and a password (or more likely a digest of the password), and receives a session token, basically just a random string of characters which is checked with the central server each time a secure transaction is attempted. The token will be stored in a session object, or perhaps directly in a cookie or in the URLs.
    Active session tokens are stored on the central server for comparison. This means the password doesn't have to be retained in the server.
    It's possible for the session token to be transfered if the user switches from one site to another on the same authentication server.
    Sun distributes one of these beasties, by the way, so you could take a look at their product specs.

  • How much time will i take for the battery to drain, with white screen of death?

    Yesterday I updated the software of my iPod touch (4gen), and today while using facebook I got the white screen of death. I tried to holding the sleep and home buttons but I didn't help. Then I tried to connect to iTunes but iTunes does not recognize my iPod. It seems that the only solution is to let the battery drain. My question is how much time will it take for the battery to drain (I charged it yesterday). Am I damaging my iPod in anyway?( I am worried because the back is a little hot). Should Ii try co cool it by placing  it in front of a fan?

    Yes it will show the low battery picture. Then I just connected it to my PC and restored it.
    For the cold pack I used one of these gel-packs http://www.coldchaintech.com/products/gel-packs.php ( I had them at home).
    I don't think using ice is a good idea here is why:
    1. If you use an ice pack you should be careful to prevent water from entering your iPod.
    2. Your iPod should not get colder than 32° F which is the minimum Operating temperature. And ice is colder than 32° F.

  • BODS 3.1 : How to trigger an email alert for the jobs on BODS server ?

    Hi All.
    I have this request.
    BODS 3.1 : How to trigger an email alert for the jobs on BODS server ?
    We have jobs scheduled on BODS running smoothly and absolutely fine.
    But to check, i am logging into the admin console and check for the jobs status.
    I would like to have an email to be received from BODS after each job is finished.
    It could succuessful. Or it could fail.
    Whatsoever, i wish to receive an email alert as soon as a job is finished.
    Can anyone advise me as to whether this could be made possible.
    And if yes, how this could be done.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    In BOE CMC / for webi / schedule / we find an option to send email for a job success or a job failure.
    Is there any option similar to that in BODS ?
    Also would like to know :
    how to use the smtp_to or mail_to functions ?
    how to set up the smtp server for this ?
    thanks

    Hi.
    Since am new to this BODS. I need some help.
    I already have many jobs which are running absolutely fine.
    And when a job runs, and finishes, am able to see the trace saying
    e.g. :
    Job_abc is completed successfully.
    We got the smtp service activated for our test server.
    and we hae a group email id.
    I have put the details of the smtp server / ip address / and said apply restarted.
    The i created a simple test script as below :
    print (' Before email ' );
    smtp_to('abc@company_name.com', 'Job ' || job_name() ||' on ' || host_name() || ' has FAILED',
    ' the job has failed', 0, 0);
    print('After Email ');
    It does send a email to as per smtp_to whatever email is specified.
    But how to differentiate between a job success
    And a job which has failed.
    I wish to have a mail which says on the subject :
    'Job ' || job_name() ||' on ' || host_name() || ' has completed successfully'
    ==> IF it is a success
    OR
    'Job ' || job_name() ||' on ' || host_name() || ' has failed'
    ==> if it has failed
    How to make the system identify, whether
    to send a success message or a error message whatever
    Could anyone advise.
