I just had an experience with a auto soap dispenser, sink, towels and dryer set in the same place in a public restroom, didn't have to walk to a shared dryer

Plus if electric cars become the norm, the streets will be quiet for the first time since the industrial revolution

Home automation. I've only just get into relay but man, the ability to turn it on or off based on other devices status is just so futuristic for someone that love and still love simplicity and dumb device.

Also ebike. A motorized bicycle that use electric motor to run, doesn't smell, quiet, and can assist me so my journey isn't as exhausting? Where is this thing when i ride my bike 16km round trip to my school every day 20 years ago?
