Automated check in kiosks for the animal shelter.  a small room with several gated cages of different sizes.  The person who finds a lost dog or cat can enter a few fields like where the animal was found, if it was theirs, contact info (and a confirmation text or email) on the ipad. once the information is entered, the door will open and then be able to be closed for the night.  Perhaps automated feeders and waterers will give a small portion of animal appropriate food.  The morning manager will process the intake.  the cages could have several scanners that look for those dog and cat implants so if the animal moves around the cage and gets close enough, it reads the info off the tag.  Maybe even send out an alert to the person listed on the implant that their dog has been found and where it is.  They can get a code to retrieve it immediately or go in the morning to talk to the supervisor to get it out.

States should create a lottery, where homeowners can pay $1 more on their state taxes to be put into a pool of money.  The winner gets a home renovation that upgrades to code (including amnesty for any work done without a permit) and energy efficiency.  New windows, energy efficient furnace, etc. The program would strengthen the state's housing stock, make living spaces safer, and reduce wasted energy.
A smartphone that's able to be docked at a workstation (two monitors, full keyboard, mouse, and office style phone with headset).  It will keep all of your work information on one physical space- backed up online- but a more convenient size than a surface/chromebook. Hotdesking is going to become more popular in the future, even though employers should not use it as an excuse to reduce the employees home station.
Workplaces need a calendar function for work functions that allows employees to choose available, tentative, or unavailable so they're able to let the company know if they're able to accomplish those specific offsite duties.  If the employees keep their availability up to date, it would make scheduling multi-worker events easier.
