Real Time Embossing 3D Environment Scanner for the Blind

Embossing is an intelligent way to make life easy for blind people. Buttons, types, even banknotes carry embossing for the blind.

Recent technology can scan objects as 3D point cloud with laser or infrared beam, and recent technology can create variable reliefs and embossing with liquid magnets or other ways.

Rear Window Position Indicator

THE PROBLEM

While driving my four door sedan I like to lower the rear windows slightly using the electronic window control feature that came with my car. This control feature is pretty much standard on most new cars and makes lowering or raising the rear windows a lot easier while driving.

Recapture Source Energy

Energy Source Recapture

Intro Background

All types of waste energy exist in our current engineered systems. The efficiency for particular systems vary from fundamental physics driving ideal values, to physical make up losses from friction, to manufacturing variability per system that do not meet the ideal physics capability and other external sources of energy beyond a systems boundary.

Recharging Electric Vehicle with Wheels and Alternate Energy

Our company has designed a unique mechanical device, we refer to as a VSTC and a Wind Turbine, to be used as alternate energy, in order to produce a self-efficient AEV that will obtain, using a 12V DC Lithium-ion battery, 75,000 - 100,000 Miles Per Battery Life (MPBL) without the need for a Hybrid engine,

Recuperator of Energy Effect Seebek for Internal Combustion Engines

In the process of internal combustion locomotion for most of the energy of the fuel is dissipated into heat energy.

The idea is to provide a radiator effect seebek that recovers part of the thermal energy dispersed into electrical energy to be conveyed, for example in hybrid vehicles, locomotion.

Red Lights on Roads - Extra Signs to Save Kinetic Energy - Anticipate Red Wave - Green Wave

The main idea is to create some waiting file at low speed for cars when it is anticipated that they will have to stop in front of a red light.

There is a green wave where cars drive at high speed (within speed limit) where it is anticipated that the green wave will go through the green light.

Redesigning the Electric Motor

Electric car efficiency can be improved. Current designs use transmissions and differentials. Improved motor design with lower loss allows direct drive without transmissions and differentials. Cost and complexity are reduced and performance is increased.

Regrowth Of Human Body Parts

Abstract: Study of Lizard DNA and their ability to regrow their tail again & as there is some human part that also regrow like hair and nails, study of the amino acids & proteins that are responsible for the growth.

The exact mechanism of how these animals can regenerate is not currently well understood.

Related Electric Power Technology

All technologies listed are based on high-frequency PWM power electronics, magnetics, and rotational dynamics; and are synergistic with each other. They include brushless regenerative DC motors, DC generators, DC kinetic battery, PV power maximizer electronics, motor-wheels for onboard solar-powered EV. Except for the EV, prototypes have been tested. Performance agrees with design analysis results.
