Recently, our online Think Tank did a little brainstorming on an innovative new product, which had just hit the market. The device was a special cooling unit that one could wear on their heads like a hat, a combined face shield. It looked like something you might see in a wrestling match, only it was connected to a central cooling unit.

The inventors of this special system had been marketing it as a medical device, obviously that’s an excellent use for such a thing, still wondering what other markets might be available. So, we started brainstorming potential killer apps. A Think Tank member turned on this list after 14 minutes. It seems that as it progressed, the potential applications got better and better. In fact, a couple of them were chosen by the group to accompany them and launch them into a new submarket. Below is the list, see what you think?

1. “Brain cooling head cap” during neural stimulation in neuroscience while using eeg or fMRI machines: human or chimpanzee.
2. Super Computer Cooling System in an MRI ship, building or trailer.
