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.
Environmental sustainability is increasingly critical in today's world, necessitating effective management of carbon, water, and electricity footprints. Our software solution represents a significant advancement in this area, integrating real-time data from APIs and IoT sensors to track and manage environmental impacts comprehensively. By utilizing machine learning algorithms,
For some modern-days applications (as microrobotic [1,2]) there is a need for compact power sources. We suggest a novel approach based on smart low-symmetry materials. They can generate DC and pulsed high voltage without any electronics with versatile power supplies (sunlight, laser, heat/cold, mechanical stress).
The management of home utilities is one major area of innovation brought about by the advent of smart technology, which has revolutionized many aspects of daily life. For both suppliers and customers, smart LPG gas monitoring and automated booking systems are a huge step forward in terms of efficiency,
In the era of AI, everyone wants to communicate more interactively with an immediate or real time response. This leads to increase in devices with visual, input interfaces. With leading technology, the higher resolution displays with touch, voice or gesture-based inputs are today’s needs.
