3 Business Ideas

At the end of the day, a successful business knows exactly what it is:

1. The business I have created and am now working on is called HandiMaps. At its core, Handimaps is an indoor mapping company. However, HandiMaps focuses on the people with accessibility issues. Handimaps will show accessible entrances, walkways, ramps, elevators, phones, guest services and bathrooms and will guide users how to get to these landmarks based on their accessibility issue. Behind the maps is the data. I am seeking to build the first ever accessibility API with the database we create from marking all of these points of interest within venues. 

2. With the rise of VR, another interesting business prospect lies in connecting humans and their online avatars. I think it would be awesome for people's avatar's to be able to interact in a virtual world with the actual human being just sitting on his or her couch. For example, let's use something as simple as facebook. I want to create something that will let your avatar meet up with a friend's avatar and together you two would traverse Facebook, and instead of reading posts, you'd see other people's avatars and ask them about what was going on with their lives.

3. As someone who enjoys the Seattle nightlife, I've seen quite a few interactions between bouncers and very drunk people. I've seen people get kicked out of a bar, only to see them sneak back in when the bouncer disappears for a bit. I want to create a scanner that would scan a person's ID and if they had been kicked out of the bar, the bouncer would be notified and kick that person out without any struggles or before they get too drunk to cause any issues.
