Photon robots
Product design idea
High energy waves are used to generate the robot functions. These waves are concentrated to the point that robot should move. For examples powerful laser is used by satellites to operate objects such as a patient in rural area.
Our mission at CFS is to provide a sustainable agricultural production system, using Systems Engineering and Integration practices (as used by NASA and other technologically sound entities) to develop highly automated Smart Aquaponic Greenhouse facilities that are Off-Grid and infrastructure independent.
The Problem:
The current catheterization procedure for a Mitrofanoff urostomy is to use a catheter and a syringe, emptying the bladder one syringeful at a time, uncoupling, emptying into a bowl, recoupling and drawing the next syringeful. The biggest risk is spilling urine next to the patient,
Blades of the turbine have cuts which open cavities inside the blades. The stream of air or water comes inside the blade and presses inside too.
Thus the area of pressure of a wind or water increases almost in 2 times without change of a configuration of the blade.
The wave thread was developed to evenly distribute stress in nut/bolt connections. In the process it was made 16-20% stronger. This is because it is a threaded bullet shape and the stress is linear form the end of the bolt, not from the sides in a cylindrical bolts.
The European Union Floods Directive defines a flood as the covering by water of land not which is normally uncovered by water. Some floods develop slowly while others like flash floods can develop in just a few minutes without much visible signs.
WeatherCalcHD 1.0.0 for the Android Tablets is an app for students and professional meteorologists to derive the highly technical details of weather forecasting without the need for cumbersome math formulae. The Four Button Control panel is the user input interface. Use the on screen keyboard to enter the Temperature,
Project Concept
This design is used to make more energy efficient housing, or homes that are able to feed more natural energy into their personal energy grids than through the use of the public grid.
Basic Explanation
The energy is derived from a few separate sets of grids.
The selection of this project idea was primarily based on its dominant advantage over the existing unloading mechanism used throughout. In conventional tippers,unloading of raw materials is possible in only one direction(backward direction only). This conventional method has some practical difficulties. If the space available for unloading is less,
