Life of an electronic device depends on its battery life. Wireless charging propels the limits of Bionic Electronics to be eternal.
INTRODUCTION
Bionic devices/organs has a limited lifetime where its battery needs to be replaced in order for it to function continually.
The project is under - working drawings.
The next stage - production and testing of prototypes.
1. Changing the design of the head unit existing engine.
Result - 2x magnification power without increasing fuel consumption.
Reducing the number of parts, weight and size of the head and the engine block.
Papaya is an appliance that helps with the cleanup process at home, consisting of a station that contains spheres. These spheres work by sensors and technological devices that clean the house with a controlled way, efficient , automated, and interactive (with virtual games), and you can select the cleaning mode. When you buy the appliance,
Tibial torsion is a condition in which the tibia has a rotation along its axis. To calculate the worth of the rotation it is necessary to make a series of studies and evaluations to determine the right angle,
The threat from active shooters is on the rise. How do you stop them? We have a solution that will save lives. Our new Templar Rapid Response System is effective and affordable. Today, many places add video cameras and access control. We know these do not work in stopping the active shooter,
The idea consists of the creation of an electromagnetic propulsion system which can be utilized as an alternative for the propulsion by conventional jet engines used in modern day aviation. There are many theoretical proposals for various electromagnetic propulsion systems, but our idea makes use of the theory set out by Klaus Halbach in the 1980s.
my RoboGuts™ Kits S.T.E.A.M. educational program;
Starting with the RoboGuts™ circuit board the students learn to add a few jumper wires to complete a real circuit. Then add the programming the student is learning structured programming using BASIC language so they learn about writing library functions as well.
NASA has developed a new software tool for optimizing interior layout designs of highly constrained, highly integrated, and/or confined spaces, such as space habitats. This tool will automatically generate or evaluate interior layout options while taking into account multiple end-user objectives.
Puncture- healing thermoplastic resin carbon fiber reinforced composites towards more damage/impact tolerant systems
NASA Langley Research Center has developed carbon fiber reinforced composites with self-healing properties. The initiation and propagation of damage to carbon composites, such as in aircraft structural components, results in component failure. Typical structural repairs result in damaging practices,
