Detecting Emanations from Planets

A simple apparatus has been built which can be used to detect direct emanations from the visible planets, sun, and moon. The apparatus is shown in Figure 1, mounted on a six-inch reflecting telescope. It is simply a five inch diameter, six foot long stove pipe with an automotive funnel at the end. The funnel,

Development Of Novel Computer Vision Based Air Jet Device For Critical Endodontic Applications

Problem Statement:

Present methods of root canal (ENDODONTIC) treatment involves the use of drill bit to drill the teeth and broaches (files) to clean the decayed pulp. Many dental studies reveals the fact that the broaching drill bit breaks and settles inside the teeth during the operation.

Direct solar energy conversion to electricity by potentially low cost nanometer scale Metal-Insulator-Metal tunnel diode serving as a rectifier in rectenna arrays

Harvesting solar energy using optical frequency rectennas is a potential low-cost solution for high efficiency photovoltaics. Unlike conventional semiconductor solar cells, in which the solar energy efficiency is fundamentally limited to approximately 30%, an optical rectenna is not constrained by that limitation; therefore conversion efficiency greater than 85% would be possible.

Displacing Diesel Consumption with High Altitude Wind Energy from the Altaeros Buoyant Airborne Turbine (BAT)

The Problem

There is a large unmet need to displace diesel power as a solution for remote communities and industries. Diesel fuel is expensive to deliver to these locations, and diesel generators, though inexpensive to install, are expensive to operate and maintain. As a result, remote customers typically pay $0.25-$1.00/kWh USD for electricity.

Distance Measuring Wheel - Innovative Improvements

Problem design idea solves…

Existing distance measuring wheels are only available in a variety of fixed wheel sizes. Small wheel size devices are normally for indoor use, on somewhat smooth ground, or to measure relatively shorter distances. Medium and large wheel size devices are often used outdoors, over rough terrain, or for much longer distances.

Distributed RE Regulator

Problem

Major utilities see Renewable Energy (RE) power sources such as small-scale wind and solar installations as a threat because the produced energy is not controlled.

Retail RE from solar panels (and other sources such as wind micro-turbines) is "dumped" on the grid in response to natural forces through relatively simplistic, non-inter-operating net metering infrastructure.
