Hasta La Ideas

We spent a great deal of yesterday visiting this year’s Tekniska Mässan (the Scandinavian Technical Fair). We knew that the Swedish Inventor’s Association and the Skapa Foundation (Swedish only) were to present a lot of new inventions this year and that many of the inventors themselves were going to be on hand for chats. Over the next few days, we’ll present some of the inventions we found at the fair. We’ll start out with C Me. C Me is an aerosol spray that can make virtually every garment in your closet reflecting in the dark. It is said to work best on denim, fleece or linen but other fabrics won’t cause much of a problem either. The spray is totally invisible in daylight, does not leave stains or affect the feel or function of the garment sprayed. The persons in the picture above have each had one trouser-leg treated with the spray. It strikes us as a way to make teenagers wear reflexes, since they would be reluctant to wear ordinary reflecting tape or fobs. The C Me spray is also available in a version for pets, i.e. dogs and cats. It would probably work well on cats that like to run outside and can’t be persuaded to wear a collar.brbr
