Birds Be Thirsty
Everybody wants to be able to charge their devices wirelessly and yes there are products now that do it via induction but that's still kind of tethered. On top of that, they're all ugly and give no visual indication of charge status. That's why this bird-bath charger by Sun Kyung Kim is just brills.

He reasons humans like visual indicators of everything and the charge status of a mobile phone is no different. Current wireless induction pads don't give any visual indication of charge status so Sun Kyung envisages a bird bath-like charger, complete with radiating rings of light to indicate charge status and to top it all off, thirsty birds that glow once the rings of light hit 'em.

I want one of these but instead of birds, I want Star Wars X-Wings to power up and junk.
