For decades dental implants and abutments have been made of Titanium as it is the ultimate material for use in the human body. Problem was the Ti abutments would create a dark area through the tissue between the restoration and the implant in the bone. Using conventional techniques was very time consuming and required special ceramist training.
Would you like to be able to pick an orange in your family room in the middle of winter? How about having a leading-edge, plus-net energy home in which fruit grows profusely (those are bananas growing in our client’s family room in the cold, wet Pacific Northwest) yet there is no mechanical heating or air conditioning used?
The advances in wireless communication technologies and mobile devices have provided reliable and secure platforms and environments for people to have better and ubiquitous interpersonal communications.In spite of the improvement of communication link and despite all progress in advanced communication technologies, there are still very few functioning commercial wireless monitoring systems, which are mostly off-line,
Parents are concerned about the whereabouts of their children but it is impractical, if not impossible, to keep an eye on them at all times. This simple device will monitor the location of their child and let the parent know if he/she wanders outside either a predetermined distance or beyond specific locations that are entered into the system.
Electromagnetic Waves offer an infinite amount of storage space in small cavities with the help of chiral medium, mirrors and transceivers.
Visible, MW, RF wave spectrum can be utilized as storage and signal processing/computing medium.
Chiral cavity can have multi-layers, mirrors and or circular fiber.
This invention uses blow molding technology to create a self contained Clean Water Mop Bucket System. There would be three separate water compartments, Clean, Semi Clean and Dirty (see Figure 1).
Supercomputers are linked worldwide, creating ultra-high performance cloud, utility, and grid computers. The Bandwidth-Delay Product (BWDP), where “delay” is the round trip time for data transfer, defines required buffer memory. Grid-X is a SeaFire innovation that addresses BWDP, and enables faster local and globally distributed supercomputing at lower power and cost.
Classical machining operations largely fall into the "subtractive manufacturing" category - operations that remove material from a solid billet to form the desired part. In recent decades, however, new forms of "additive manufacturing" have become available. In these cases, a CNC machine is used to add material to the workpiece to build up the desired features on the part.
My entry is fairly simple since it just combines two existing technologies: voice recognition software has been in development for 10 years, and Google is about to launch augmented reality glasses, displaying text or any picture over the normal vision. My idea is to combine these for hearing impaired people: in a simple conversation,
To create doors, walls, roofs, barriers, security shutters and many other planar surfaces that can span large contiguous areas but may also be stored in a compact stack for transport or architectural needs. (Panels may also be curved for arches or domes etc.)
The individual panels may be made of many types of solid materials, or may be of composite,
