My new and innovative subject which will surely be used in the future is "Antennie." This project is in the sections "Electronics, Sensors, IoT" and "Consumer Product Design" (in my opinion). Why is it called that? Now I will explain to you. I came up with this name for because it is connected with her main work.
These Prosthetics are designed out of recycled ABS plastic waste.
Three hollow cylindrical segments like human fingers with similar cross section and length connected with hinges and and assembled using a trigger spring mechanics from within the structure. To hold in position there are indentured on the joint, providing a 180 degree mobility to the joint.
The present invention (called “Smart Charger”) relates to an innovative charging device for any ICE, operating with conventional fuels or biofuels or hydrogen, featuring more efficient, reliable, compact and cheaper than today charging devices (i.e. superchargers or turbochargers).
A short description of “Smart Charged,” from innovation, feasibility/ manufacturability and marketability points of view, is reported:

Every day we consume a lot of energy to heat our homes. The cost of that energy is rising by the year. In order to save money, I offer to use a heating system with together solar collectors. Solar collectors will be installed on the roof and will be connected to the boiler.
As hostile nation-state actors turn to cyber-attacks, they are becoming more strategic. Strategic attacks are those in which an attacker, often a hostile nation-state actor, penetrates a network to gain control of a process, adjusting valves and moving set-points.
Both body massage and bodily exercise of the musculature induce various physical pressures on the venous blood vessels throughout the circulatory system. The human body simultaneously exploits these induced pressures and protects the circulation of the blood using one-way flow valves in the blood vessels which close each time the blood vessel is sufficiently compressed,
The miracle of lightning.
The power of thunder.
I believe that this invention will be superior and beneficial for all humanity by providing sustainable energy. How can lighting provide energy for usage of people? According to the research, the strike of thunder can provide energy which can supply all parts of New Jersey with energy for one generation.
Eccentric Overload Training (EOT) sets and maintains an Eccentric weight that is heavier than the set Concentric weight of an exercise cycle (cycle being lifting/lowering, pulling/releasing, etc.). Many studies demonstrate and confirm the tremendous benefits of EOT over traditional resistance training - faster and greater muscular/tendon/ligament strengthening, reduced "wear and tear" on muscle/tendon/ligament/bone structures,
Kirat is an electric-powered wheelchair with facilities that can be adjusted according to the user’s needs in terms of balance, the level of comfort, and everyday life requirements. This wheelchair has the unique capacity to be adjusted with the places and paths when the wheelchair is stopped or while it is moving.
