ABSTRACT
Recently, wind turbines have been growing in size and complexity and blades have grown to be larger than 80 ft in length and weigh 40 tons, submitting them to stronger loads. Now they are being deployed offshore, looking for steadier and stronger winds.
The consumption of bottled water is ever increasing. India is amongst top 10 bottled water consumers. Thus, tremendous plastic waste is generated every day at public places like railway stations.
This plastic waste is segregated manually which is quite erroneous.
Loss Of Control In-flight (LOC-I) is the most frequent cause of General Aviation accidents and incidents. The proposed concept aims at preventing the risk of occurrence of a LOC-I by providing an indication of the current margins to aerodynamic stall conditions,
Biometrics can be used at many places like Industries, Offices, and Colleges or even at our home. This project is a fine combination of “Biometrics technology” and “Embedded system technology." Fingerprint sensor is the main part of this system. It makes use of Biometric sensor to detect a fingerprint.
Energy Intelligence is developing an alternative energy solution that generates electricity in places with a high density of vehicle traffic, such as toll plazas, parking garages, bus stations, and border crossings. The potential value of energy that could be generated at these sites worldwide exceeds $10B annually,
In India most of the vehicles are parked in an open environment that is exposed to sunlight directly and temperature outside can go beyond 40 degree Celsius in summer.
Free standing flexible capillary made from silicone elastomer for medical and soft robotic applications.
Free standing flexible capillary was fabricated using 3 steps molding and demolding techniques.
Using electromagnets and magnetic piston in contemporary IC engines is the crux of the idea. Apart from achieving the torque and HP equivalent to the contemporary IC engine, it consumes power equivalent to that of a 12 volt car battery. The benefit is less pollution and it can
The project is mostly inspired by true circumstances like an Engineer needed in Automation when he is far away, a Doctor needed in a surgery with a team, an Employee having to attend a video conference from far end of the world etc.
