In September of 2009 Planet Solar became the first solar only powered vessel to circumnavigate the planet - to prove the feasibility of solar generated electricity as a source of power to move vessels in perpetuity without the use of fossil fuels. In 2012 HJA Solutions studied Planet Solar’
HALO is a human management system to be used in the case of a humanitarian disaster. This includes settings such as refugee camps. HALO helps camp management collect data from people at the camp, so that needs can be prioritised and met in a time of distress and chaos. Currently,
Hi! Everyone has seen the MagSafe cable for MacBook? With this cable you charge your notebook using the magetic end. Very convenient, with just a touch you can pull out the cable and the laptop will remain in place.
But in 2015, Apple released their new MacBook 12’, replacing magic MagSafe with high speed and universal USB-C.
Yes, it's great!
In this robot kit we are going to control a robot wirelessly using hand gestures. This is an easy, user-friendly way to interact with robotic systems and robots. An accelerometer is used to detect the tilting position of your hand, and a microcontroller gets different analog values and generates command signals to control the robot.
Pen technology has matured enough to date with more improved ink-delivery systems to write more comfortably. Yet, no pen on earth can capture the handwritten characters on paper and convert them to digital format.
We made a device which can be attached to a bike. When the user meets with an accident the device sends a message of the coordinates of the location to the nearest ambulance, police station, and a family member.

Automotive Brake Vibration and Squealing Suppression Analysis
Methods in Simulation Design Stage
The brake vibration and squealing problem has been investigated from its occurrence mechanism to systematical analysis method by my group since 1984. The brake system eigenvalue matrix is a non symmetric one due to its frictional coupling parts.
Autonomous Robot for underwater exploration with high cruising speed and efficient in terms of propulsion and stability. Designed robot is mimics the biology of a fish for its behavioral function and its structural anatomies. Among the various biological locomotion techniques in liquid environment, the fish appears to have most characteristics in a single body.
1. ORC Unit: Organic Rankine Cycle is a power generation Plant; on a mini-scale; typically in the range of 10 to 250 kW. The main differences between the large thermal power plants which operate on conventional steam based Rankine cycle and ORC are:
