The following design system is intended to assist in the increase of the geomagnetic field of the Earth. The device is then able to break gravity and maintain electrical production to "transmit" a magnetic field increasing the total field strength. Currently the Earth's population's common knowledge contains the observed failing geomagnetic field.
IDEA SOLUTION:
SUSTAINABLE [IoT based] AUTO LEATHER-SLICER-MACHINES
to Recover Leather Waste
TAGLINE: instantly & sustainably recover leather-waste material
{HOW THE PRODUCT WORKS:
Water is converted to a gaseous state (steam).
It is injected into the combustion chamber under pressure.
Under the action of high-frequency vibrations and high voltage, hydrogen and oxygen are separated.
Changing the input parameters (temperature, pressure,
Packet Protector is an Arduino Embedded device that runs an IDS program that monitors the incoming network traffic on the Ethernet interface. The program implements a variety of protocols and mechanisms to analyze the traffic and detect potential threats.
One of the primary protocols used by the IDS program is the TCP/IP protocol suite.
The device rotates perpetually under condition of active balance with mounting frame HMFF perfectly perpendicular to the direction of gravity and HMFF is fitted to free straight ends of 4 tubes with other ends welded on the border of PS1 to prevent imbalance on movement of the persons and PS1 is welded over HMF which connect to CL with
