Tech is an industry with many concepts for new and revolutionary products, but some never make it to market. The tech industry's innovative inventions let us humans glimpse life in an untraditional and futuristic way. However, only a few projects are fully developed, in addition to the concepts that were explored.
SimpleGhar wondered what the most exciting, patented products from tech giants such as Apple, Google, Facebook and more would look like if they were produced. SimpleGhar shared, "While we had to take a little creative license when interpreting the plans and coining the product names, these eight designs show what the biggest names in tech had envisioned for our not-so-distant future."

Apple has created a mechanical system allowing the device to understand its position and movement speed, to enable the 'iShield' when needed.
Image credits: simpleghar
The device with integrated iShield can "detect when it is in free-fall, which will then automatically engage the defense system," SimpleGhar shared.
Image credits: simpleghar
Further explaining the mechanics behind the iShield, SimpleGhar explains the purpose of the pins: "Once activated, the pins will be deployed, rotating on their axis in each of the screen’s stress points to act as a buffer between the device and the floor before neatly retracting back into the device once the phone has been secured."

Image credits: simpleghar
Ford's vision of unicycling from an idea became a vision as SimpleGhar rendered another innovative technology.
Image credits: simpleghar
SimpleGhar believes this machine is: "Bringing new versatility to the everyday car, Mono-Wheel technology will allow drivers to switch from a four-wheel car to a single, self-propelled unicycle."
Image credits: simpleghar
This technology allows you to use your car's tire to transform it into the mono-cycle: "Users can transform a wheel from their car into the ultimate urban transportation unit," shares SimpleGhar.
Image credits: simpleghar
SimpleGhar explains how the tire combined with the 'MonoWheel' works by saying, "Powerful motors will propel the wheel to allow drivers to glide through traffic without breaking a sweat."
Image credits: simpleghar
The "advanced suspension system" helps with "removing and refitting the wheel." SimpleGhar explains the procedure further: "At the touch of a button, the rear of the car will rise from the ground with the wheel disengaging. The motorized hub then effortlessly attaches, allowing the driver to continue their journey on the MonoWheel."
