Since the introduction of electric motors in the modern automotive industry, demand has been increasing for production of smaller and faster motors; as a result, the field of power electronics is being pushed beyond its limits.
Having seen construction labourers slog for hours to construct brick walls and trying very hard all the time to maintain proper alignment of the bricks, we have come up with a novel machine to make this process faster and a lot more efficient.
In the existing method,
Approximately 11% of the global burden of disease can be addressed with surgery. However, due to lack of necessary equipment, many cases go undone and those that are done are compromised by lack of adequate monitoring. Furthermore, a low cost,
BDCOTSRUS, Inc, is a 501(c)(3) corporation. We want to promote a design for personal transportation that is safe, environmentally friendly, fuel efficient, and cost effective. We believe that a car that achieves one-hundred miles per-gallon does not need to be prototypical because the technology is currently available.
Small-scale hydro power from floating dams would be reliable and ecologically friendly. Because of the low cost and the longevity of micro hydro, developing countries may manufacture and implement the technology to help supply the needed electricity to small communities in remote areas.
The PMAL will be a compact multi-function laser device, integrated optionally at the external side of an astronaut’s suit.
It will be used as a Laser Doppler device – pointer – distance meter – emergency position indicator – morse signal beacon.
The new flow sensor uses screen-printed thick-film thermistors and resistive heaters protected by a thin layer of Parylene-C to convert heat transfer to fluid flow velocity using King's law. The thick film substrate is connected to a small electronics board,
Multi nut remover is a kit invented to reduce the effort and time in replacing the wheels of the vehicle. The plurality of lug nuts can be removed at one time without the usage of an electric motor or any hydraulic and pneumatic devices.
The Idea
The X is a miniature launcher that can be used to propel metallic shells at a pre-determined target. It acts as a lilliputian simulator of a ballistic launcher. The robot perceives the target and adjusts the launching arm accordingly using various projectile motion formulae. Eventually,
Powered exoskeleton is a branch in robotics technology which is witnessing a rise in research and development. Its applications range from use in the medical industry to use in the military.
