Problem Statement: The solar industry struggles with fire. Historically underreported by the U.S. Fire Administration, fires at solar installations rose 36% from 2017 to 2018, with residential installations representing the majority of fires. Every year, arcing faults are responsible for 30,000 fires in the US,
The patient management software:
stores patient data throughout their lifetime
connects several health centers, hospitals and clinics with a server, to exchange patient data, for better diagnosis
Each patient has a badge which gives access to his patient files.
A feature of the drone is that it includes the properties of aircraft and helicopter types of UAVs. It is equipped with two beams on which 4 lift motors are mounted, designed for vertical takeoff and landing from almost any surface. A pulling engine is installed in the bow,
Traditional planar ducted fans can suffer from stall and drag in edgewise flight due to the high angle of attack at which air must turn into the rotors. This creates blade imbalance and instability in the aircraft that rely upon such fixed fan-in-wing designs.
Innovation:
I have designed and built a prototype replaceable vise jaws for use as a combined parallel and angle setting device. There are recently produced products that operate similarly, however, they use compressed air to "activate" the pins and all but the needed ones must be retracted.
The DZAD cycle has won several global awards due to the disruptive nature of the technologies for the sector. Anaerobic Digestion is known to be amongst the best methodologies for treating solid waste. It also enables generation of energy and fertilizer (slurry).
Our team has discovered a single-molecule switch that can act like a transistor and store binary information such as the 1s and 0s used in classical computing.
Congenital heart diseases are the most common form of birth deformities that require surgical intervention. Given the nature of infants, pediatric cardiac surgeons need to master their craft and develop advanced psychomotor skills to save such delicate yet complex organs. However, with its opportunity-based education,
A dog can lift its hind leg just by thought.
Cars will now have the same ability to lift any or all the wheels off the ground with just the push of a button.
Should you have a flat tire,
