Subscription and gentleman farms are all the rage. People want grass fed beef. Sometimes there isn't enough feed or grass available for rotations. It's gets muddy which leads to pests and maybe antibiotic overuse.
It may be that attitude, drinking, inexperience, coordination, balance, or speeding by the driver cause many motorcycle accidents but in many more cases it is the unseen car driver that can't or doesn't see the cycliist; and, many times from the right front at pull-out or intersection.
Home Security using Image Processing
Most of the surveillance/security systems we use at our house, offices, etc are just one or other type of video recording system. The main drawback of this system is it records everything, but it lacks when it comes to avoiding the breach or atleast informing the respective authority about it.
Automation might not fundamentally change the value of the car and it will not make the driver obsolete, but it will create new conditions for personal transportation. The autonomous car enhances safety and the quality of the driving experience and it enriches the time we spend in cars. In accordance with current technological trends within the automotive industry,
ABSTRACT:
A new Numerical Method (US patent application no. 15/797649; US application publication no. US 2018-004151 A1) first of its kind in about 200-years is propounded by the following 5-statements:
A. Organize linear or nonlinear equations as mismatch functions equated to zero.
B. In each of the mismatch functions,
Reduction of drag and boosting of lift to drag ratio is of paramount importance to maximize flight efficiency. In order to reduce turbulence and thereby reduce drag and increase lift to drag ratio, I have successfully developed a new concept after spending several years to research. To move a body against a fluid,
Harvesting energy efficiently is of paramount importance to maximize energy production efficiency. In order to produce energy freely I have successfully developed a new concept after spending several years to research.
How it works: Rotor coils rotate counter clockwise reaction of that makes permanent magnet rotor rotate in clockwise direction.
For electric cars, electric motors of rotary types are used. DC or AC ones. In my project I use linear type electric motors in line order attached to the crankshaft. Aim of this design is practical increase of the torque applied and to allow time for motor coils to cool down. Normally it has 6 linear actuators,
Fuel Quality Sensors (fuelbox): digital and real time fuel scanners for captive fleet and long term rental B2B markets:
The arrival of stricter regulations and the impact of the various scandals that continue to shake the automotive world make the introduction and then the spread of a set of connected sensors as necessary "real time" monitoring elements for the
Presently for water purification large treatment plants involving sedimentation, electrodialysis, reverse osmosis RO techniques are used which are not easy to employ without electricity. We have designed handy smaller/larger water filter pads that can be used in the home and water can be taken from any source. The Gupt Water Filter Pads can be easily fitted on bottles,
