The impending global regulations on emissions present substantial challenges for modern diesel engines and aftertreatment technology, particularly in the control of NOx and CO2 emissions. Generally, diesel fuel produces more energy for a given volume comparatively higher than other fuel like Petrol.
The "Rakshak" device is a wearable IoT-based solution designed to protect individuals, particularly farmers and forest officers, from dangerous encounters with wild animals. It is designed for both men and women and provides an effective means of distraction and alert to prevent potential conflicts.
VRSIL (Virtual Simulations) is an advanced virtual reality product designed to revolutionize training and skill development in both the medical and industrial sectors. By seamlessly integrating state-of-the-art VR technology with custom hardware extensions, VRSIL provides immersive, realistic simulations that enhance learning and performance.
My project is how to create fully solid–state batteries and accumulators exclusively from natural materials. Glasses and gloves are not needed to make a battery, the technology is completely harmless, simple and cheap. We will do without acids, alkalis and harmful metals, which, like lithium, are sometimes flammable.
The "Digital Twin of 3D Printer" is an innovative concept that creates a virtual replica of a physical 3D printer, enabling real-time monitoring, simulation, and optimization of the printing process. This digital twin integrates advanced technologies such as IoT, AI,
Now, when Waymo and other companies has shown that autonomous cars can offer lower cost door-to-door passenger transportation, it is time to produce the best autonomous car for this purpose. Cities all over the world have problems with traffic congestions and pollution,
Ice makers that dispense ice through the freezer door can be a wonderful convenience — when they actually work. However, they have not improved over several decades, and they can take up over a cubic foot of space in a freezer. Many people hate their ice makers.
This innovative device leverages the abundant and sustainable resource of natural clay, transforming it into a versatile medium for creating intricate and durable structures. Unlike traditional 3D printers that rely on plastic or metal, the Clay 3D Printer offers an eco-friendly alternative,
Given that microplastic pollution is ubiquitous in soil, oceans, and even human bodies, it has grown to be a serious environmental concern. This issue is greatly exacerbated by microplastic powders, which are frequently used in cosmetics due to their smooth texture and exfoliating qualities.
