The sun visor in all of our vehicles was initially invented in 1931. No major design changes or improvements in over 90 years! According to NHTSA sun glare causes approximately 9,000 crashes a year.
Problem:
Current sun visors are a manual system unsuitable for safety, cumbersome to use,
The illustrated row-guidance hitch is a simple mechanism that combines articulation and side shift to provide adjustable on-the-go variable draft and position of tools for in-row fieldwork. The hitch adjustments also provide a way to couple with field implements automatically.
Numerous studies indicate that the potential of autonomous vehicles (AVs) to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, reduce traffic congestion, and increase mobility access can only be fully realized through fleets of electric vehicles being used for shared rides. This has the potential for transforming the public transport industry,
Carapace suit for motorcycle riders to minimize damage to their body in case of accident
The number of fatalities involving motorcycle riders is untenable.
The motorcycle helmet provides some protection but is insufficient to reduce the damage to the rest of the body.
Truly safe ADAS and autonomous driving applications require real-time, high-quality data. The sensors that provide this data are approaching levels of power and precision that border on superpowers. Yet,
Using (Cold War ending Star Wars Strategic Defense Initiative technologies) research of: 1)superconductivity at room temperature, 2)Cold Welding, 3)nanograin metals, 4)high speed electroplating, 5)magnetic conducting insulation, 6)magnetic levitation bearing, and 7) direct drive; I propose to create with a national laboratory design group’s assistance layout, simulate, &
Today, technology is available to transform transportation. Our all-electric National Transit Service™ (NTS) is an automated nationwide ‘door-to-door’ service to be implemented in stages across the U.S., beginning with the gridlocked urban areas in which 80% of our population live.
Our project aims to revolutionize emergency medical services in rural communities by introducing a network of drone-based ambulances. The current healthcare infrastructure in these areas faces numerous challenges, including long travel distances, limited resources, and difficult terrain, which often lead to delays in accessing life-saving medical care.
Multiphase electric machines possess several advantages when used in the electric drive system for automotive, aerospace/defense, rail, marine, and manufacturing industries. The performance of an electric drive system in extreme working conditions is extremely compromised. An electric drive suffers from torque derating, a decrease in efficiency,
In many types of rotating equipment (cars, boats, helicopters, pumps, compressors), regular wear and tear bring about a gradual increase in unbalancing of the rotating components. In an industrial settings, unbalancing is one of the most common causes of failures (e.g. bearing wear, mechanical seal; etc.).
