The idea of the project stems from the mission of the team: «Bring Innovation Into Safety Systems». To do this, we have created a start-up. To make it «unique», we have patented the idea at an international level. Today, the patent has been recognized in Europa,
Traditionally, drive elements like gears, pulleys, sprockets and similar devices are affixed to rotating shafts using a variety of different methods. Setscrews or shaft keys are the most preferable; however when intermittent and reversing motion is required in a system, performance will worsen over time.
LiquidCool Solutions developed the LCS Edge, a purpose-built, high performance-computing appliance that revolutionizes the Internet of Things (IoT).
The issue with IoT is the massive amounts of data overloading today’s cloud models. Cloud computing is not designed to handle the volume, variety,
The proposed concept of a RF pumping source embedded into a resonant RF cavity of the resonant cavity thruster (EM Drive), consisting of a cylindrical tube and a frustum coupled together,
In a conventional Reciprocating Compressor there are a number of moving parts like the crank, connecting rod, belt drive system, and electric motor which contribute in frictional (mechanical) losses resulting in low efficiency. Also it is bulky in size and high maintenance required as it consists of motor,
The Gravity Feed Pellet Fireplace Insert has no feed motor. Instead gravity feeds pellets at a constant rate.
This concept presents a radically new wing design that aims to equip new aircraft designs such as flying car with the aim of emulating the behaviour of helicopters and tilt rotors with much higher efficiency, better performances and higher safety levels.
Floating buoys are used for several purposes. Some platforms are composed of multiple floating modular cubes connected to each other and mostly used in a tied position to the shore to function as landing stages in order to provide sunbathing areas,
Cor-IS is a portable, non-invasive device for the diagnosis of Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) through brachial artery endothelium functionality evaluation. Until now, ultrasound imaging of the brachial artery is applied in clinical practice, but this has major disadvantages like poor repeatability, extensive fluctuation in the measured values,
The rise of human activity since the beginning of the 20th century, due to rapid rise in industrialization, made it necessary to create marketing and transport facilities. Further, heavy laden vehicles on roads have put pressure on it.
