Rare Earth Metal Recovery using Ionic Liquids

This technology is a new rare earth element (REE) recovery process using a room temperature ionic liquid solution. Current technologies for producing REEs require high temperatures and produce an abundance of toxic fluoride salt waste. These limitations create a need for an environmentally friendly, low temperature technology to produce rare earth metals.

Safe Bulb to Solve Light Pollution of Insects

According to recent research, light pollution now affects a quarter of the planet’s land surface. The falling cost of lighting and the expansion of human infrastructure are to blame. Human illumination is rising in range and intensity by approximately 2% every year. Biologists from the University of Exeter are comparing the problem to climate change.

Photographic APRO ( Artificial Parallel Reality Orb)

Right now, I'm currented working on a desktop model of my Photographic APRO ( Artificial Parallel Reality Orb).

As the name states, it is photographic in nature, but is also the low-tech counterpart to my high-tech ideas in the geometry of invisibility and holodecks, as they would pertain to light-field optics,

Freetouch

In 2020, over 7 million public-facing touchscreens were impacted by concerns about pathogen transmission from shared surfaces. This is a small subset of the 85 million connected displays currently deployed globally with the potential for touchless interactivity.

Freetouch lets anyone safely interact with public displays via the one screen they’re comfortable touching… their own smartphone.

A Global IoT, Automotive, Manufacturing and Defense Network Protocol that Reduces Energy and Pulse EMF Pollution

Distributed Queuing (DQ) was originally invented for cable TV broadcasting. However, the first two demonstrations have been on long rang IoT radios such as LoRa and Zigbee. In both demos, packet efficiency rose from a maximum achievable 50% under Aloha, to 98% when DQ swapped with Aloha.
