The Waterdance Valve is a water-saving device that allows users to turn on the hot water faucet or shower, capture and cleanly store the cold water runoff normally wasted while waiting for the water to get hot, and then use that captured water as needed from the same faucet, all while requiring no electricity, batteries or pumps to do so. It's completely sealed and silent, with no external moving parts. It utilizes a relatively inexpensive technology that makes it affordable and by its design allows it to make an ongoing substantial water conservation impact.

The Waterdance Valve is devised of water pathways used to determine the incoming water temperature and direct the flow according to a pre-determined temperature threshold. ...

In order to survive in the coming years, mankind has to change its behavior regarding the use of water challenging the scarcity of resources. This new generation device in water conservation mimics the iconic LED in lighting. It is supposed to conserve 70% of wasted water and heat consumed while bathing or washing in the time when there might be wars on water.

Due to its modular nature, many designs could be artistically generated to match the diversity in tastes.

To satisfy the different needs in the bathroom, three kinds were developed. Type A instantly returning back after pressing, ideal for massaging and bathing at the same time. Type B to click and enjoy water flowing through its nozzles ...

WEIGHT REDUCE SCHOOL BAG
Today in school and colleges we get books, for example an English subject text book for 5th grade students with more than 5 to 8 chapter lessons to learn. That means in a single day the teacher doesn't teach all the chapters but we carry every day this book according to the time table of each class.

It means loss of energy for students carrying the book every day when the teacher teaches 1 chapter or less than 1 chapter. Plus the student gets more tense in carry this book and also while reading this book and while exam comes near the student becomes more tense.

My innovation is in page manner or it can call file system ...

Watching the waist line size and body weight is the main responsibility of every weight watcher. "Measure your tummy" belt and "Measure your weight" shoes allows you keep a watch on them easily without any additional effort.

"Measure your tummy" belt is any regular belt to outside world. But inside that belt has an inbuilt measuring tape. This tape is not visible to any one except to you while you are wearing it. Even unconsciously also you will note the changes in waist line.

"Measure your weight" shoes have a flap covering that digital weighing machine. Weighing machine is connected by wires that goes right under your foot. Insole has the simple electronic meter that measures your weight. Just ...

WhalePower is in the process of developing a range of new, more efficient fans for computer cooling. Our corporation holds the patent to develop new fans, turbines, pumps and compressors improved by a unique blade shape, enhanced by bumps on the leading edges of the rotor blades called "tubercles." This innovation was discovered by WhalePower’s President, Dr. Frank Fish, who discovered that the bumps on the leading edges of humpback whale flippers or “Tubercles” changed the flow of fluid across these immense natural wings. When applied to turbine and fan blades, these Tubercles increase lift, reduce drag, eliminate stall and operate virtually silently. In short they make a better airfoil that can improve a host of products from turbines ...

Concept:
This wheelchair is inspired by racing cars and skate boards and designed for children. As an alternative to traditional wheelchair, Velomaxx is powered by arms. Therefore, every child, even kids with a disability who can’t use his/her legs, can enjoy a sportive yet comfortable ride. I wanted to create a wheelchair design that will allow kids to live their dreams of being a pilot of a race car, airplane or feel like they are in a science fiction world.

Target Market:
The target market of this wheelchair is children of age 6 to 12 years. I want them to enjoy this wheelchair, feel the adventure and have fun. The children who have a disability to use their legs ...

This Wheelchair Drive-Assistance Device is designed to eliminate the complex arm motions at awkward wrist angles required to propel a manual wheelchair by its occupant, motion that can greatly contributes to rotator cuff tears and median nerve damage, which can possibly lead to carpal tunnel syndrome, affecting roughly one-half of manual wheelchair users. Unlike other such devices the Wheelchair Drive-Assistance device does not utilize cranks, gears or ratchets in its operations. Moreover the Wheelchair Drive-Assistance device behaves as an integral brake when slowing or stopping are required.

For ordinary manual wheelchairs, the mobility-disabled grasp the grip-rings and force the rotation of the main wheels, thereby propelling the wheelchair. Differential application of force is applied to change the lateral direction ...

The “While You Wear It…Wrinkle-Away”© is a small hand held device that allows you to remove wrinkles from clothing while you are wearing them. Fabrics that wrinkle easily mainly do so because moisture lowers their glass transition temperature, which is where the molecules loosen allowing for re-arrangement of the fabric’s fibers. Textiles such as cotton and cotton blends are among the most problematic. But, if they can wrinkle easily we should be able to remove the wrinkles almost as easily! This becomes obvious when you see such products as wrinkle releasers work. They may not be perfect, but essentially do relax wrinkles by simply wetting the fabric and using your hands to stretch the material. The downside is that ...

The "White Glove Seeing Eye Phone": Use multiple proximity (ultra-sound and optical) sensors and high end imaging processing, to detect traffic, lights, obstacles, people, and gestures, so that a Visually Impaired (VI) person can get around safely. GPS features to allow the VI to navigate, as well as report where they are when they need help. It's an emergency call device that helps a person to retrace their steps! It requires large, tactile type buttons, and/or a glove of sensors with accelerometers, to detect user gestures and combinations/sequences of touch. Voice commands would be very useful and are available in many devices. Wireless so the main CPU does not need to be waved around by the user. The paradigm ...

In the last decade organic crops are gaining momentum in international markets due to increased public awareness about the harmful effects that common pesticides have on the human body and the environment. These crops have to deal in new and innovative ways with the different kinds of insects and microorganisms that attack them, for example, using some microorganisms that cause death if eaten by that said insect.

Our enterprise is developing a commercial solution (patent pending) made from extracts of different kind of nuts that can prevent a wide spectrum of fungi from growing on the applied surfaces. The attached images show the effectiveness of the product in its testing stage. Bottom image shows normal fungi growth on a ...
