The Smart Water Quality Monitoring System is an advanced solution designed to provide real-time insights into the quality of drinking water. This innovative system integrates industrial-grade sensors, a Raspberry Pi 4 for data processing, and a HMI touch display for interactive data visualization.
Recently, electric vehicle (EV) technology has received massive attention worldwide due to its improved performance efficiency and significant contributions to addressing carbon emission problems. In line with that, EVs could play a vital role in achieving sustainable development goals (SDGs). However,
There are places where food aid is hard to deliver by road. This drone carries more Humanitarian Daily Rations for a longer distance than quadcopter drones can. Humanitarian daily rations are a specific form of aid that is designed to be dropped from planes.
The Monowheel Undertaking presents the design and evaluation of a single-wheeled electric vehicle for personal transportation. This innovative concept prioritizes efficiency, sustainability, and user safety in urban environments. The Monowheel integrates cutting-edge hardware, motor control systems, and an intuitive steering interface.
The Intelligent Symptom Tracker is a novel telehealth monitoring application that addresses the challenge of comprehensive symptom tracking and analysis. By integrating user-reported data with real-time biometrics from wearable devices, the system employs advanced algorithms to identify symptom patterns and correlations.
Automatic Waste Segregation Bin
Introduction
Managing municipal solid waste is a critical global issue exacerbated by increasing waste production and the urgent need for sustainable practices. Traditional methods of manual waste segregation are plagued by inefficiencies, high costs, and significant environmental hazards.
A device that collects energy from lightning, this device collects energy from a lot of lightning in the autumn and winter seasons, and reduces the high voltage from heating devices in this season. As a result of mutual attraction of negative and positive charges,
In order to lessen the negative effects of industrial processes on the environment, waste reduction and recycling of manufactured slag are essential elements of sustainable manufacturing. Slag is a byproduct that is produced when metals are smelted. It is mainly produced when metal is separated from its ore.
We have developed an innovative ore secure helmet designed to significantly enhance safety in mining environments. This helmet is engineered to prevent accidents caused by hazardous gases and rock collisions, which are common risks faced by miners.
This project presents a comprehensive system for predicting retinal diseases from fundus images using deep learning, particularly the InceptionV3 model, fine-tuned on a curated dataset. It also evaluates the risk of heart failure based on specific retinal disease predictions. Implemented as a Flask web application,
