Everyone is making electric cars. This idea answers the question:
'Why would the customers buy our cars and not other OEMs'?
The bottle is the result of a study on the consumption of "clean" water by my 9-year-old child.
Studies show us that liquids stored in plastic containers cause allergies, lose properties during storage and even destroy health.
The design I have drawn is a drone. It is not just a drone but it will help many companies and services such as NASA, the Marine Corps and the military. This drone can dive into water so that we can discover thing beneath the oceans,
The VAYU is a prototype under development to meet the needs of electricity consumption by our society in the future. The renewable energy namely rain, solar and wind. Not only does it use renewable energy but also simple resources which are easily accessible and available globally,
The proposed product is a new type of car chair pneumatic pillow. This pillow consists of three pillows, manufactured with elastic materials. Two of them are connected by air valves. The central pillow is isolated from others and contains microbeads or another filler.

At present, smart wearable devices have become indispensable equipment for modern life. With the popularization of mobile Internet in China, the Internet of Things is also being actively promoted.
Vibration and Inertial Electro Mobile - VIMO contains several innovations that improve the energy efficiency of existing technologies:
A new system of accumulation of vibration energy, which is 4-5 times more effective than the famous GenShock.
Combined wind-turbine,
In a world of rising energy consumption, the need to efficiently minimize and contain extended energy costs cannot be overemphasized. This has led the world to thoroughly investigate electricity consumption behaviour by continuously monitoring with the aid of electric meters,
ChIMES (Chemical Identification by Magneto-Elastic Sensing) is a passive chemical sensing technology that can detect a very broad range of substances. The technology consists of a sensing element and a separate electronic package; the two components can communicate wirelessly through a metallic or nonmetallic barrier.
On wind turbines VForce® patented blade morphing technology can generate an estimated 8-20% additional electricity generation (Lindenberg et al. 2008) by operating in low wind situations.
The technology is suitable for tapered blades and is of light weight construction.
