Honestly, I'm not a big fan of technical "innovation." Not everything needs to be improved upon or given WiFi. In fact, oftentimes, I find that they add complexity for complexity's sake, leading to failures, borked operation, or just generally making what was simple that much more of a pain in the ass.
My wife and I once saved up for a Sleep Number adjustable bed and we both hated that thing so much, a year into ownership, we snagged a cheap, regular old mattress just to be done with the constant electrical gremlins or fussiness of regular use.
I just want the damn thing to work and not always have to update an app or worry that water has somehow seeped into the control mechanisms for something that's supposedly waterproof. But that's the vibes I get from Autoliv's new patent, which purportedly shows a self-adjusting motorcycle helmet chin strap.
