Getting a hair cut!
Let me explain - I'd like to be able to walk into a hair salon, tell the robot to cut 1/2 inch off and then leave it to them!

I'm so tired of asking for a certain length at the hairdresser and them having a field day! I have curly hair so if they cut too much off it shortens up by inches, not just the extra bit they cut off! And I could tell the robot what color I wanted and it would match perfectly.

Or tell them you want soft curls with 21.5 streaks and away you go, all done!

Wouldn't it be wonderful....you could even teach the robot to mutter appropriate comments and gossip :)

There's a patent pending for something like it :) but I do wonder who is going to be the guinea pigs to test it :P

Id love it if we could automate "repairing the damage that humans have done to the planet".

If we could invent a technology that benefits the environment, that would be a great start
