EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
1.1INTRODUCTION
In the world, usage of electricity is increased day by day for each and every purpose of people. If the necessity of electricity increased but the production level is low. The main purpose of this invention is cost effective, without fuel, no pollution, noiseless, and constant power supply without fluctuation.
Four cylinder IC engine with NO crankshaft.
The principal BENEFIT of a Scotch Yolk mechanism as used in an IC engine is to provide a piston with a connecting rod attachment that nearly eliminates the piston skirt and cylinder scuffing caused by the angular thrust between the piston and cylinder wall. However, as traditionally used,
There has been a rapid increase in the demand for battery packs in recent years due to the growing popularity of residential power banks, electric vehicles, laptop computers, etc., all of which require battery packs. Since battery packs wear out over time, 
The aim of the project is to facilitate agriculture anywhere from extreme earth to space conditions by creating suitable environment simulated by micro embedded systems. The growth in population and the food markets are increasing the deforestation for increasing agricultural land to meet the demand.
Problem Statement: Global Food Demand, Can We Solve?
Proposed Solution:
The Internet of Things (IoT) has brought a revolution in the technological era, where objects around us will be connected and interact with each other to perform certain task without human intervention. Features like vision, self-configuration and intelligence could be incorporated in to the IoT architecture to improve preciseness.
Blind zone areas can be eliminated by properly adjusting rear mirrors in a vehicle. The Intelligent View System (IVS) is an easily installed hardware that employs automated adjustment of the rear mirrors relative to the head position of the motorist.
The FV hardware compose of a microcontroller and a camera that are easily installed into the car.
Rescue time is often affected when ambulances are stuck in traffic jam, and the cost of purchase and maintenance is too high for the rural and poor areas to allocate ambulances. Shutter Motor is a small pioneer electric three-wheeled vehicle. The frame of its wheels is equipped with AED and first-aid medicines.
