Inspection of tunnels or canals that are underground and in places of difficult access (e.g. mountains) can be very difficult and dangerous for humans. In the future, these operations have the potential to be performed by autonomous unmanned vehicles that can access much harsher locations and conditions. However,
This entry is for developing a persistent near space solid lighter than air reconnaissance and communications platform that would in many instances take the place of a satellite, be considerably more maneuverable, cheaper to make and operate, and produce better quality images while lingering in trouble spots indefinitely.
Loro is a smart, caring, playful, cool, and personalized companion for wheelchair users, that can see, speak, listen and learn by artificial intelligence and machine learning. The system will be able to monitor users' health status in real-time and provide reminders for medication and tasks.

From California, South Africa to Sydney all cities have water supply problems. With climate change water is a future issue. Washing machines use lot of water. City water use for washers is huge. Front loaders are costly to maintain, buy, run with high detergents that pollute water bodies.
Skydiving is a transiting from sky to Earth, may involve free-falling when the parachute has not yet been deployed. Skydiving is limited in altitude. Oxygen mask above 50,000 feet does not provide protection for body from low pressure. Only full pressure suit provides protection at high altitude.
Many modern technological processes require clean high vacuum environments. Diffusion pumps (coupled with mechanical pumps) can achieve high vacuum pressures (3×10-8 mbar) and are relatively inexpensive and easy to maintain.
Nowadays, traffic congestion at intersections has become a severe problem in urban transportation systems. It not only causes large-scale delay in road network but also increases accident frequency. As an alternative solution, overpass system has been introduced. However, this system obviously has very high complexity,
