This novel electricity generator is capable of supplying all our power requirements, thus solving one of the earth's critical needs.
This electricity generator functions using known electromagnetic principles that simply have not been applied previously. They do not function in the manner of all current-art electricity generators, which move wires through a magnetic field to generate electricity,
This is the "Swiss Army Knife" of camping tools. In one unit it has an axe, shovel, pick, wood saw, hacksaw, pry bar and hammer. Pretty much every medium tool needed for camping.
The unit would be built using basic machine tools.
The use for this would be for camping, survival and as a general,
Dual Fuel Engine as the name suggests runs on two fuels i.e. diesel and CNG. The air and CNG is mixed in a pre-mixer and injected into the inlet manifold during the suction stroke. Before the piston reaches from BDC to TDC,
Water related issues are expected to globally increase in coming decades due to depleting water tables. Main objective of this study is to treat available water in rural areas of tropical regions, fit for human consumption by pasteurizing it to a temperature of 70 degree Celsius by designing,
Mechanical walking tiger is a robot that can carry 100 kgs of weight. It means we can sit on it and can ride it. it consists of a 110cc petrol engine which can pull or carry heavy loads. Carrying heavy loads becomes possible by this 110cc petrol engine by assembling it to 30:1 gear box.
The electric eel generates large electric currents by way of a highly specialized nervous system that has the capacity to synchronize the activity of disc-shaped, electricity-producing cells packed into a specialized electric organ. The nervous system does this through a command nucleus that decides when the electric organ will fire. When the command is given,
A suit that has capability to regulate the body temperature because of the sensors fitted in it. The sensors automatically detect the surrounding temperature and adjust the temp of body.
OBJECTIVES
• Positive displacement of seeding in soil

The Internet of Things (IoT) promises a world in which everything is connected by sensors to everything. The cost and logistics associated with installed wiring or using batteries to power these systems represent a significant cost. Our proprietary SemperCell technology,
Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are adult stem cells traditionally found in the bone marrow. However, mesenchymal stem cells can also be isolated from other tissues including cord blood, placenta, peripheral blood, fallopian tube, and fetal liver and lung. Multipotent MSCs can differentiate to form adipocytes, cartilage, bone, tendons, muscle, and skin.
