Betterfrost’s solution defrosts and defogs Electric Vehicles’ windshields with 20 times less power than current technology and extends the range of an EV by 38 km on an average commute in winter. This range is worth $600/vehicle in battery pack cost to automakers. Our system provides high-voltage, pulsed power to the transparent, conductive layer inside of windshields (e.g.
Bielectric technology is for buses and haulage electric systems. This technology will completely be self sufficient in terms of generating electricity for the vehicle.
A conventional electric system with 8 hours drive will be installed in the system.
a separate wind turbine powering blades will be installed to recharge the batteries.
Presented in Fig 1 is an overview of a Constant Speed, Infinitely Variable Semi-tractor transmission which utilizes an Angular Motion Translator (AMT, US 6,547,689) to control a Variable Displacement System (VDS, US 9,890,638) (or Hydraulic Pump) coupled to a Hydraulic Motor.
The Variable Displacement System (see Fig. 2) consists of an in-line, co-axial,
Large companies like Google Waymo, General Motors, Amazon and others are investing billions of dollars in Robotaxi development, but they are missing two very important facts:
A large part of the future passengers will be very hesitant to share ride with strangers in a car without a driver, researcher Sigma Dolins found this and named it "Sharing Anxiety.
Idaho National Laboratory experts have developed a new tool, Caldera. The foundation of the Caldera software platform is a library of high-fidelity EV charging models derived from extensive charging and battery testing data that INL has collected over the past decade. Caldera fills a clear technology gap. One set of existing tools enables simulation of transportation networks,
UNIMO offers a new level of individual mobility for people with disabilities.
The car complies with the M1 category, so it can be used on public roads.
The platform of the car is made with the possibility of interchangeable installation of an internal combustion engine and an electric motor with a battery.
The community welcomes their SULO Bins almost everywhere worldwide. These bins are seen as a very appreciated service and hold great credibility for what tasks they perform. Such SULO Bins are therefore the ideal community service to add a lid with greenhouse gas capture benefits to reduce the methane, carbon dioide and nitrogen oxides in the atmosphere.
Present technology for cooling a piston throughout the entire engine operating range is to supply crankcase oil for cooling through the piston oil nozzle assembly explicitly to satisfy the worst case engine operating conditions. Unnecessary high pumping power is required to circulate the engine oil used for cooling.
PROBLEM: Global Heating by Contrails generated by jet airliners
98% of anthropogenic (human-made) global heating is the result of Green House Gases (GHGs) such as CO2 and methane. The remaining 2% is generated by the effect of Contrails. Surprising huh?
Contrails are the ice-crystal clouds generated by soot and water vapor emitted by jet engines at high,
We are currently experiencing a time of technological transition in the trucks market. Both the way in which we transport the loads (vehicles driven in person, autonomously or remotely), as well as the energy matrix to be used (vehicles powered by combustion, electricity, hydrogen, etc.).
These questions bring a series of problems for automakers,
