Ruppell Spacetrack is an air floating maglev track for lauching a spaceship. An elevator is used to lift the spaceship to 20 km high above the Earth's surface. A long track accelerating it at 3G is used to give the spaceship enough energy to exit Earth attraction.
This invention is about a system that monitors driving habits, to be used by automotive insurance providers in safe-driving discount programs. The idea eliminates any of the privacy concerns associated with data loggers that are typically used in such programs, and should thus find a much more widespread acceptance.
In this system,
Busy streets with speeding vehicles and blaring noise is a typical image of the automobile revolution. With increasing vehicular population, particularly two wheelers which are more vulnerable to accidents, there is increasing demand for the safety of both man and machine. More than 1000 people die every day because of accidents all over the world. One such case,
Abstract:
SAKALA in Sanskrit means total, entire or complete and RAVA in Sanskrit means any sound, noise or vibration.
In the view of intense demand for power in this densely populated world, there is a need for sustainable and alternate energy sources.
Salter’s Duck is a wave energy conversion device invented by Dr. Stephen Salter in 1974 at the University of Edinburgh. The device is unique among wave energy conversion systems in that it uses both the vertical and horizontal motion of the wave. It has a pear shaped cross section that “nods,” rotates around its center,
This idea describes the development of SAROPAN, an all terrain chain belt mechanism robot, wirelessly controlled and automatic (dual mode operation) and camera mechanism for surveillance. It also describes the development of a software interface which allows several open and closed- loop control methods to be easily implemented.
The Next Generation Air Transportation System or NextGen is implementing or plans to implement a satellite-based air-traffic control system across the United States.

Saving Lives in Home Fires With Smoke, Heat, and Fresh Air Vents
What kills people, who die in home fires? Poisonous gases in the smoke. What do firefighters do when they arrive at a burning home? Ventilate the house letting smoke and heat out and fresh air in.
Today's satellite propulsion systems cost upwards of $15MM, were designed before the first handheld calculator was invented, and are impossible to miniaturize to accommodate smaller satellites. Over the past five years, these small satellites have become increasingly capable, but are being launched without propulsion for pointing their antennae or cameras, reorienting themselves in orbit or relative to one another,
