Stupid Innovations

The conference room I sit in has an auto power saver thing...which means that if the sensor does not perceive any movement for about ten minutes, the lights go off automatically.

Since I sit here alone, there isn't any movement of the kind that the sensor expects. So every ten minutes the lights go off, and I have to stand up and do a little jig or wave my hands vigorously at the sensor. Duh.

Hey, Hope you are fine. I was surfing around and came across this piece of yours. In the recent Innovation JAM this is one suggestion i have made about floor sensors to be used for saving electricity. But then, I did not know such side effects :)
