What's an idea you have that should be an actual thing?

Tourist cities should have hotel rooms by the hour that are actually clean when you just want to take a nap.

Parking lot lights, that are in/ on each space. That indicates if there is a space available…. Less driving around the lot looking for a space

I have seen these in airport parking garages - green when the spot is empty, red when occupied and visible from the end of the aisle.

What really blew my mind was seeing the exact same functionality for stalls in the restroom.

Omg. Where???

It has been a minute but I want to say maybe BNA Nashville Airport had them.

Regardless, it looked like this.

Portland airport parking garage has these lights at each spot, along with a digital sign at the start of each level telling you the number of open standard spots and handicap spots on that level

Here's a picture

Some of the Portland parking garages downtown have them as well.

Aw yeah!

Malaysia is all over this in every major carpark.

DWI Airport (Baltimore/DC) has bathrooms with these lights too. Very useful.

Most every mall in Asian countries I've visited has this system already. This may just be a North America being cheap problem.

Some North American malls have them.

The problem is that a lot of American malls are in decline and can barely afford to keep the escalators working, let alone install these lights.

Many malls in Toronto have this. And as others have said, airports. Pearson International included.
