What do you get if you cross a comedian with germs? Sick jokes, surprisingly that was the only germ
joke that wasn’t completely disgusting, another joke I found was ‘what did the mould say when he
had his picture taken? -Cheese’
...
If there was one thing I learnt from writing this speech it’s that
‘mysophobia’ is a fear of germs, I also learnt that some people have really weird ideas, for example
transparent TVs, and floor plan light switches, or the innovation I chose to talk about; the ‘Selfsterilizing door handle’ designed by Choi Bomi in 2012
...
It claims to “stop the spread” of influenza and most
communicable diseases, which are otherwise “unpreventable”
...
This transparent door handle is blue when sterilising, and
has a futuristic look to it, I don’t see how it could look anything other than futuristic though; it’s a
glowing door handle
...
Another
downside is the constant need for electricity, which has a negative impact on the environment and
costs money, even after the initial cost, upwards of $1,000 to purchase it, and have it installed
...
It is prone to overheating, which can scorch your
hand, and eventually lead to electrocution
...

This innovation may never become an emerging technology because of these dangers… although
you never know how many mysophobics are out there looking for just this
