The Problem
There are 50 million people just in the United States with various physical or cognitive challenges that greatly limit their ability to don their own footwear. Using traditional footwear causes wearers undue pain and suffering, or at the very least, are very inconvenient.
Humanity is looking for greener and more efficient transportation for fighting the global issues. Keeping this in mind, my Team ThunderBolt ( http://www.nitw.ac.in/sae/thunderbolt ) set out to design and fabricate a two seater hybrid trike, run on human-cum-battery power. It is highly engineered,
This is an apparatus for making transmission holograms of cave formations to capture their beauty in full three dimensional splendor. There are other types of holograms that are easier to make but they do not have as much depth and parallax as the laser transmission type.
Electroplate and Lift (E&L) Lithography is high-throughput, high-volume manufacturing of patterned nanowires and microwires. Unlike traditional nanomanufacturing, requiring a costly clean room full of equipment, our technology is a simple electroplating bath, power supply, and one of our reusable Ultrananocrystalline Diamond Template (UDT) electrodes,
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
This invention relates generally to the field of air conditioning and more specifically a machine for improving air quality including removing bacteria molecules. At the present time SUPER BUGS in hospitals kill 100,000 patients annually at the expense of $30 Billion.
This invention is about a Vibrational and Motional Energy Absorbers which are embedded in the concrete to increase the resistance of this concrete structures to tremor damage.
These Energy Absorbers or as I call it, “EARTHQUAKE ABSORBERS”, are sealed spherical steel containers,
Spy-way is one of the two projects that can be conjugated as one, but, at the same time, they can develop complete and complex tasks separately. So please, let me introduce you the Spy-way project.
The continuous growing of car accidents on highways seems endless.
Many microfluidic devices for plasma separation from human blood samples have attracted numerous researchers to develop for point-of-care medical health diagnosis in the future. However,
