The first thing that comes to your mind is probably the flying car and you are right but it may not be the most useful invention in my opinion. Sure flying cars would be fun but how useful would it really be? You could travel by air without being squished beside stranger on a plane but that’s not really needed unless you suffer from severe claustrophobia. On the other hand if we have something like a micro-biotic robot that could be released in a habitat that could literally soak up pollution, track animals and keep habitats safe from people who mean harm,  or some sort of serum when poured on unwanted plastic would disintegrate it without releasing  poisonous  fumes into the air. That is what I’d call a needed and useful invention for 2016 but I do really want a flying car 🙂
