Check out Boardgamizer [link]. I'm proposing that, but
for inventions.
It would have columns for technologies incorporated,
purpose field, business model
(optional), and maybe more. Each time you run the
generator, it gives you one or more
random thing per column. You can also filter what
categories you want it to pick from in
each column.
Example outputs:
- electric motor, hardened glass, telescope; motorsports
- iridescence or structural color, wire; household
cleaning; crowdfunding
- REST API, injection molding; workplace ergonomics
- clay, video game, audio recording; environmental
remediation; donation, sales of
recycled product
This would inspire many halfbaked ideas, and would also
give me somewhere to send
people who ask questions like [link].

Where I got the college radio idea. I think this idea wants to mate with the Inventionizer. [bungston, Mar 15 2016]

[popbottle], I don't see what that book has to do with this
idea. |
|
| |
I'm not suggesting you construct businesses and products out
of buzzwords, just as Boardgamizer doesn't ask you to
construct board games out of buzzwords. They're just
inspiration to help you come up with your own ideas. It's
perfectly fine if your resultant invention lacks relation to
some or even all of the buzzwords you received. |
|
| |
And my examples might be more buzzword-heavy than we'd
like, just because that's what I happened to think up. Please
suggest more examples if you'd like to. |

That definitely helped me write this annotation. |

I was originally envisioning, and had thought I had put in the
description, that it would use Halfbakery categories, but I
guess I didn't. |
|
| |
I sort of tried this, at least within biology/biotech,
using lists of words and a random phrase generator.
It was quite surprisingly interesting. |
|
| |
And you could broadcast the output on collage radio! |
|
| |
Moved to more appropriate category that I just discovered. |
|
| |
I think it should automatically crowdsource micorfunding, to fedex copies of its ideas to people that already have licensed patents, as a cheap form of technology transfer |
