Advanced Solid State Cooling Technology
This technology requires three tuned elements to operate:
1. A special nanotechnology-based ceramic produced using an induced self organizing tendency that is used as a heat extractor (energy extraction) element to capture localized or ambient heat.
Power Fingerprinting (PFP) is a cyber security solution capable of directly detecting malicious intrusions in critical infrastructure and Industrial Control Systems (ICS). PFP allows the monitoring of platforms with limited computational resources and memory, often found in ICSs and Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs),
The key challenge in designing vehicle suspension springs is primarily to cost-effectively strike a balance between vehicle ride comfort, road holding, and load carrying capacity. A Hybrid micro-composite E-like shaped spring strikes such a balance cost-effectively. Its advantages include
(1) Light weight:
For instance,
The goal of my design is to explore the use of the latest technologies in both clean energy and advanced materials to create a future concept which can effectively demonstrate the use of said technologies.
Sol-X is designing and building the world’s first commercial space diving suit.
The RL Mark VI is intended to operate on Earth, low Earth orbit, and long range space missions. This suit will increase safety and productivity on manned space missions,
The Gravity Development Board (GDB) will revolutionize the high-level prototyping experience and replace the Arduino Uno® as the peoples’ preferred microcontroller. Designed as a tool for developing hardware and software systems, the GDB is the first space tolerant,
There has been much research on computer vision for the purpose of vehicle safety applications, making use of diverse methodologies like complex vision algorithms. However, despite its effectiveness,
Untethered Autonomous Flying Wind Power Plant
Conventional wind power plants (WPP) have their limits due to the low energy density and fluctuations of surface winds, as well as their low efficiency. The idea of harnessing the more intensive, persistent high-altitude winds seems to be promising.
I.INTRODUCTION
The present day cars require a lot of human interaction with respect to driving the vehicle safely. In this paper,
As our generation advances, we push the limits and boundaries of our technology. Online advances form a frontier the way the West used to be a new frontier for exploration. Statistics like Moore’s Law show that transistor integration doubles every two years and internet growth is exponential.
