This proposal relates to a Hybrid Split Type Internal Combustion Engine. The hybrid construction has resemblance to a four stroke engine having valve arrangement but produces Power for each rotation like a two stroke engine.

BERDAN-TECH EVOLUTION OF WIND TECHNOLOGY
The BE-Wind product line is unique in the world, it is the only dual vertical wind system with a Deflector (Diversion) shield on the market today. This design has come about after many years of development and testing.
After helping to make the World a safer place with the 'Life Safety' ASPCA standard for power and communications, I now introduce the mechanism for Distributed Power Processing which will revolutionize power/energy distribution around the World. Solar has come of Age.
I am a wheelchair using paraplegic with Spina Bifida, and have worn full-length orthotic leg braces periodically over 45 years. My entry idea is the inclusion of soft fabric vibrating "massage" pads epoxied into the interior of the braces' hard plastic thigh cuffs and shin/foot splints.
Alternative Fuel Gas there now is not simple, requiring infrastructure and huge costs.
Therefore I made the Gas Generator-based portable water.
Where the gas is produced directly on the device and can be taken anywhere.
So it can be used in places where there is no gas supply.
How to rotate the wind turbine by using carry bags instead of blades?
Please watch photos and videos for better understanding.
We know the important of wind energy. I would like everyone to carry out this experiment.
Concept: -
A retractable key holder with spring action, the key can only be used if the user is wearing the helmet. The helmet has a pressure switch which activates the key holder.
Using a responsible mix of science, engineering, technology and nature, we have designed a Smart Aquaponic Greenhouse system that can not only deliver produce and fish, but can also provide compost, clean energy and clean polluted water bodies. Our design is environmentally conscious and robust in performance and sustainability.
The project is basicly an exoskeleton that can be worn by patients for the purpose of aiding walking and for faster recovery after accidents.
We have designed the cheap exoskeleton for patients who could not use their legs after an accident, as their recovery time is very large,
