Chemical classification is an important operation for many industries. Typically, this is done with portable spectrometers that cost on the order of $5000. The data from portable spectrometers must be transported back to the lab to have post processing determine what the contents of the measurement were. The complexity of these spectrometers is often excessive;

Every year chemical manufacturing companies spend millions of dollars and thousands of man hours attempting to increase safety and prevent dangerous chemical leaks and accidents. Regardless of these efforts, dangerous chemical leaks still occur. The US Chemical Safety Board, an independent federal agency that investigates chemical accidents,
At high attitudes there are plenty of winds. My idea is use wind energy. First use is to create addition lifting force. Second use is to charge the battery of a Soaring Surveillance Device.i
Soaring Surveillance Device consists of four main parts:
1) Wing.
2) Vertical axis wind turbine (VAWT).
VAWT rotor connected with electric generator.
The omni-IDE is a versatile, comprehensive “software defined” electronic appliance that serves as a core platform for a wide range of embedded applications, hence the name "omni-IDE."
The omni-IDE capabilities provide the following benefits:
*Ready-to-use
*Practical utility
*Ease of deployment
Current mobile cell tower configurations require an electrical power source, land leasing (when applicable), and backhaul to the network. Augmenting the power schema by using a combination of solar panels and wind turbines with an energy storage unit would allow for more remote placement and more flexibility.


70% of the average household's energy bill is spent on heating and hot water. By focusing sunlight on a linear boiler (with a parabolic trough or linear fresnel reflector), making steam and putting that through an efficient steam turbine connected to a permanent magnet alternator, and a condensing thermal storage tank it is possible to make heat,
Behind petroleum, coffee is the second most traded product in the world. The consumption per year is about 1.3 kilograms per person. 45% of Americans over the age of 18 drink coffee every day. There is a reason behind these statistics, and it’s simply that people love coffee.
Electrical Bike with Solar Disc Wheel
This concept bike is a design challenged by today's pursuit of greener transportation devices. It is capable of running on battery power, on power from sun light, by pedaling or a combination of these.

What ispired this design is the death rate in third world countries as well as UNICEF's statement: "The capacity of National Immunization Programmes is strengthened so that every individual can benefit from vaccines of assured quality delivered in the right amount at the right time through efficient logistics, proper vaccine management, and a well-functioning cold chain system.
Product proposal for “Solar Kettle”
INTRODUCTION
There is a worldwide search for innovative technologies to reduce CO2 emissions.
One option to reduce CO2 emissions is to cut down on the use of fossil fuels to heat water for domestic use.
The sun is an endless source of energy. This energy can be captured and be used to heat liquids,
