4 Everyday Innovations That Inspired The Feeler Series 🚀
When I write science fiction, I love imagining new worlds, thrilling mysteries, and fascinating characters. But one of my favorite parts? Dreaming up the tech! While some futuristic gadgets in my books might seem far-fetched, many are actually inspired by devices we already use today—just with a sci-fi twist.

Here are four real-world innovations that made their way into The Feeler series as next-level technology!
Smartphones to Comm Bracelets
Our smartphones do it all—talk, text, GPS, entertainment. I personally rely on mine to avoid getting hopelessly lost (thank you, GPS!). But in The Feeler series, I took this everyday tech one step further.
Enter the comm bracelet—a sleek device worn on the wrist that projects a floating, touch-sensitive screen. Need to take a call? Send a message? Watch an entertainment vid? Just flick your wrist! It’s everything your phone does, but cooler and more immersive.
Self-Driving Cars to Hover Cars
We may not have fully autonomous vehicles yet, but self-driving technology is on the rise. And let’s be honest—we’re all waiting for flying cars.
In The Feeler, I made that dream a reality. Hover cars aren’t just self-driving; they’re like floating living rooms! My characters sip coffee, chat over comm bracelets, and even take naps while soaring above the city. No more traffic jams—just smooth, sky-high travel.
Lab-Grown Meat to Synthetic Meat
Cultured meat is real—it’s grown from animal cells in a lab, and while not yet widely available, it’s gaining traction. But in The Feeler, lab-grown meat is the norm, and there’s even some debate about how all the different types taste eerily similar.
My characters enjoy synthetic meat, which, despite the name, isn’t artificial at all—it’s just meat without the farm. And while some purists (in The Feeler) turn their noses up at it, most agree: it’s just as good as the real thing.
Medical Pumps to Meditabs
Today, we have subdermal medical pumps that deliver steady doses of medication for pain management and chronic conditions. But what if they could do even more?
That’s where meditabs come in. In The Feeler, one character relies on this implant to keep his body functioning. But I didn’t stop there—I added nanobots that work alongside the meditab, making tiny adjustments to his body on a microscopic level. A built-in doctor, right under your skin!
The Future is Closer Than We Think
Science fiction isn’t just about wild imagination—it’s often a glimpse into what could be. The tech in The Feeler might seem futuristic now, but who knows? Maybe in a few decades, we’ll all be wearing comm bracelets, cruising in hover cars, and debating the flavor of our synthetic steaks.
