An end-of-20th-century advancement enabled brain shape deformations to be quantified. After standard Procrustes representation exhibited recognizable landmark spread for a set of subjects, further mathematical analysis produced another 19% variance reduction in spreading of deformations among patients. That development, while extensive and sophisticated,
A Non-Metallic Far-Infrared (FIR) and IR (infrared) Thermoplastic (eg PTFE) DX Fluid Heater/Boiler and Heat Exchanger and Method is disclosed. No direct contact of heat source (electric IR emitters) with heated fluid media; no heating of IR-transparent (low reflectivity) exchanger surfaces in contact with fluids;
The Amphibious Drone with operational capabilities of surveillance and data acquisition both in underwater and air. The Objectives are to create a prototype that is capable of operating in air and under water, to demonstrate the capabilities of developed prototype for underwater surveillance,
This project uses the AS7263 NIR (near infrared) spectrometer sensor and the Raspberry Pi 4B board to assess plant foliage health. It explains how to uses the sensor’s channel readings and the standard Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) equation to calculate an estimated NDVI value.
Veles is a smart converter designed to increase the water heating efficiency of photovoltaic panels that the user will be able to control through the application. By analyzing the user's use of water and heating,
I can 3D-print my passive devices SFGs so they can withstand 220C and I can place them in between the large fans and the heat sink. The additional multi-scale cooling will help the fans overall efficiency and will produce lower decibels of sound.
