There's another approach somewhere in between. Bring your ideas forward
on the internet, discuss them, even go to the stage of design and let
others take the risk of fabricating and marketing the product. If good
it will be picked up by an entrepreneur soon. It will be patented by him
and you will not earn a penny when it becomes a success but on the other
hand it doesn't cost a fortune when it fails. Mankind will benefit in
more than one way. It requires some altruism, spare time and a not too
big ego. There's a trail of software and hardware solutions left after some
threads on forums like this. Open source avant la lettre.
