Contest
This design is a four rotor internal combustion engine. It rotates a single shaft which transfers the engine power to the clutch/transmission. The purpose of this engine design is to build a simple and efficient engine.
The objective of this project is to understand, manipulate and enhance the dexterity of a robotic hand, and its controlling by various methods (in our case, a potentiometer fitted Exoskeleton Glove).
Our project may be a useful alternative for people who have lost their arm.
The project is specifically designed and fabricated for the convenience of physically challenged people who are disabled by their legs.
As in this date there are many options for transportation available for physically challenged persons like, Motorised wheel chair, Hand powered tri-cycle, Scooters..
Conventional Overbalanced Wheels that are famous for perpetual motion machine do not rotate. Now, I disclose new Machine. Figure 1 shows new Perpetual Motion Machine that generates rotational energy by using a Capillary and a Wheel including a Sponge and Weights.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
NoireNaturals LLC is a completely all-natural line of hair care products, designed to cater to the unique needs of kinky, curly, and wavy hair. The goal of this product line is to help ease the anxiety and challenges that come along with maintaining textured hair types,
The Problem:
Be careful what you wish for you might get it. We needed detailed information on the dangers of radiation for spacefarers so we instrumented the LRO and Curiosity missions to give us this data.
The natural calamities, often unprecedented in scale, are difficult to predict accurately. The tsunamis, though rare, are high impact phenomena, exposing coastal people and island habitats to great risks. The impact of tsunamis is higher in scattered/undeveloped coastal communities, devoid of modern communications and media coverage.
Problem:
Campus settings lack a form of instantaneous communication in the face of technological failure or cell tower overload.
Benefits:
The sound level of our whistle is great enough that it can be heard from room to room in large buildings.
This weapon is a double barrel (slide pump) action shotgun that has the capability of holding fifty (50) rounds of 12 gauge shotgun shells in a side-by-side stagger single box magazine.
