Solute ion linear alignment (SILA) can be applied to treat wastewater while at the same time reducing CO2 emissions and desalinating sea water.
This innovation provides a new untapped source of energy, namely clean energy provided by the civil infrastructure, such as the steel in buildings. It is based on new science developed by Chung,
The new EDM (electric drive module) design works with any and all vehicles that have standard front, rear, or all wheel drive. The unit mounted behind the engine under the vehicle adds a high torque, highly efficient electric drive unit that works in conjunction with the vehicles gas engine.
It's all about renting a car in a smarter way. This idea surfaced due to the problem we faced during our vacation. We leveraging the concept of connected vehicles for our idea, connected vehicle is currently in the market where ,
The high cost of carbon nanotube (CNT) materials stifles broader access to energy applications. Also, CNTs are mainly produced in Asia, whilst the majority of customers are in Europe or the USA, implying large shipping costs and potential for supply chain disruption. In addition,
I have designed an UVC air filter that actively sterilizes the air without the need to evacuate the room. It involves a duct fan which draws air through a physical filter on the intake at the bottom. The filter eliminates dust. This increases the efficiency of the UVC sterilization.
The J&R Project, Infectious Agent Disinfection with Nanoplasma, is based on 30 years of basic and applied research in electromagnetic bioeffects and pathogenic microbial decontamination. The latter is especially focused on non-destructive decontamination of sensitive equipment in aerospace platforms.
Using a new FAST LiDAR system with no moving parts, the first of its kind, very fast moving debris can be tracked, identified by material composition, and eventually mitigated by robotics systems employing magnetics and forceps. The complete system will integrate with current technology available in use.
This innovation crosses all categories from medical to automotive, aerospace/defense to consumer items and, most surely, the IoT.
The fiber optic connector is ever-ubiquitous from medical robotics to all levels of aviation to the Internet connection on which this submission was downloaded.
No, it is not a 200 miles per gallon carburetor, nor a secret fuel additive. ValueGauge is a unique electronic display to advise drivers of driving habits that yield the best Value for fuel expense and time and avoid Waste.
