Congratulations to Our 2024 Grand Prize and First Place Winners!
NETrolyze, a novel immunotherapy for triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), was named the $25,000 grand prize winner at a live finalist round held November 15 in New York. The first-in-class therapeutic injectable gel prevents the spread of TNBC, one of the most aggressive cancer types, enabling patients to avoid toxic chemotherapy and expensive treatments – potentially transforming their lives.

The issue of finding new materials is very pivotal in our industry nowadays especially as in coal mining. Therefore we intend to develop an idea that can help us in determining materials such as metals & fire.
With the flexible calling system,
Problem to be solved
The best way to reduce carbon dioxide emissions is to burn less fossil fuel by using engines with higher efficiency. Even when we enter the era of biofuels and/or alternative fuels, or hydrogen fuels finally, increasing fuel conversion efficiency and reducing fuel consumption is still a significant strategic solution, because the higher the fuel costs,
Problem to be solved
We will rapidly approach a point where the terrestrial traffic simply stands still, and that will limit our personal movement. So the vertical flight made by Vertical Takeoff and Landing – VTOL aircarft becomes a logic and immediate solution. On the other hand, the single actual means for vertical flight is represented by helicopter.
The Nautilus Cycle utilizes semi-continuous HCI/HCCI combustion with a primary/secondary piston proposal. Placing a ‘nipple” also known as the primary piston with this design on top of the regular shaped piston is what makes this concept so unique and effective during a homogenous charge compression ignition cycle. The well thought cylinder head design now consists of a ‘
Cat detection sensor: The concept is that when a cat enters the home and start eating in the kitchen milk or fruits, the sensor starts detecting the cat's face and multiple photos are taken and it is taken to the cloud storage and once it is stored,
Now, I will explain about a wheel using an Inverse Magnetostrictive Effect. The YouTube video will help you to understanding the invention.
This wheel generates torque by using the inverse magnetostrictive effect. First, I will explain about the inverse magnetostrictive effect. As the magnetostrictive material, there is an iron-gallium alloy. As with iron,
In my project we are going to produce electrical energy with the help of compressed air. Generally we use air compressors which are operated using motor to compress the air, but here we are using pistons to compress the air and then the compressed air will be stored in a CAES (Compressed Air Energy Storage).
Forward bicycle pedaling only transfers the torque to the wheel. Reverse pedaling doesn’t transfer the torque to the wheel, due to free wheel. So forward pedaling only requires pedal effort and it will vary depends upon load and vehicle type (bicycle, tricycle & handicapped cycle).
In nearly all urban areas, with high population of both humans and automobiles, finding parking spaces is a hassle. It is a very time & fuel consuming affair. Most workplaces & commercial establishments are unable to meet the demands for parking areas needed. But since the land area available is limited,
OVERVIEW
Aid visually or hearing impaired users via Augmented Glasses (AG), WiFi, and GPS. Used with mobile devices - smartphones and tablets - to identify points of interest in buildings, called Locations. AG or mobile device allow hands-free or touch pad control to the system. Operates in two modes, Hearing (user can hear) and Visual (user can see).
