10 More Inventions from the Future

There’s an old expression that says “You don’t need to reinvent the wheel,” meaning that you don’t need to create something that already exists. While this is a good rule of thumb, sometimes, someone reinvents something that already exists, but improves it in a way no one expected. These 10 inventions are just that – reinventions that are simply better than the original.
