Our project title is smart baby belt. As mentioned in the name it will be useful to babies. In our belt we have sensors to detect moisture in the diaper, to detect the location of the belt, to detect the temperature of the baby who is wearing it.
We see so much waste in rivers, canals, lakes nowadays. And there are many ways to clean them but using of this aqua bin which uses IoT technology makes us easier to do our task. Mostly the lower wait particles,
Clean solar cooker as replacement for hazardous log-fires
Until today more than 3 billion people rely on open fires for cooking. Their cook stoves are predominantly based on burning firewood or charcoal and used indoors without sufficient ventilation [IEA (2016). "World Energy Outlook 2016"]. According to the WHO,
We are glad to representing our own Electronic scooter witch perform amazing results in cross-country ability, safety, range and speed.
All components of our own design and we proud of 3 general features(patent pending) in our scooter: motor wheel with liquid cooling system, hydraulic brake system, Suspension.
This concept is 6,000 ft length x 60 ft diameter and 4 ft diameter of axle at center. 6,000 ft length divided to 80 or more terminals connect to the other by joining axles. The fly-wheels attach each side of axles from right to left .73 curved fan blades mount on each side of the fly-wheel.
This invention is designed to automatically play the traditional piano and play the music itself. This is done by electronic relays that move the piano, the keyboard, using electrical impulses. When the electronic relay is energized and the same key is pressed, this key illuminates.

A collapsible, movable, plug and play isolation room which arrives in a bag and doesn’t burn a hole in our pocket. How amazing is that!
It can be dismantled , installed and ported anywhere and everywhere within minutes.
Just what the world needs today and for all years to come!
The aim of the project is to develop technology and create a production line for light transmitting thermal insulation material (LTTI), which can be used for houses, greenhouses, tent hangars and buildings. LTTI material consists of gas filled polymer cells that have light transmitting and thermally insulated properties with excellent elasticity and low cost.

High reliability for electronic systems/assemblies is critical for various industry sectors and their continued success. Electronic devices include Printed Circuit Board (PCB) as the key component for optimal operation/performance. Selection of the materials used in PCBs is critical to make the assemblies highly reliable and free from corrosion.
