My super hybrid motor, a motor that runs on air, liquids and electricity and a flywheel combined.
So I guess you could say it’s a hydraulic, pneumatic, electric motor and gravity flywheel motor.
The Idea is to combine all these elements, to create a great motor, a motor that is easy to make.
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,

Hello all:
Thank you all for providing me with the opportunity to present my logic design concept.
Presented here are concept designs that will have hardware software embedding into existing systems. Coding programmers will have to develop further to incorporate working computer apps. ChatGPT GPT4 machine learning artificial intelligence integrated package system.
The risk of whale entanglements (worldwide) would be greatly reduced if trap fisheries (commonly used for catching crab, lobster and octopus) used ropeless fishing techniques which remove the need for floating ropes between the water surface and ocean floor.

This revolutionary repulsive gravity toroidal generator/motor uses a ferrofluid at low temperatures to shield the force of gravity in its range.
It is part of the study of "magnetohydrodynamic thrusters" (acronym MHD), which concern the physics of magneto-fluid dynamics, known for the study of the movement of electrically conducting fluids,
The alarming increase in road deaths and injuries involving powered two- and three-wheeled vehicles (PTWs), is compounded by the lack of sustainable solutions to curb the occurrence. In many low- and middle-income countries, PTW deaths account for 43% of all road traffic deaths. In Malaysia,
The KIEN I-RLTS is an innovative support for blind people autonomous mobility.
Known RTLS systems map the environment and locate a user within that environment, then provide guidance at front of a defined path.
KIEN innovation covers two aspects:
Placement of UWB Tags in correspondance with "destinations" e.g. Safety exit, ATM machine, toilette, ticket distributor,
The purpose of this presentation is to create that missing conscience to be prepared to help each other in natural or man-made disasters
