So my idea is to make vegetable jam (thela) automated. There are more than 50,000 thela wala's in India, my father is one of them. We all know how much hard work they need to put in to move thela and make money on a daily basis.
A smart city is a city that uses various technologies to provide services and solve problems within a city. To keep these technologies running smoothly, a continuous power supply is needed to fulfill the energy demands of the city.
Solving the challenge of flexible transport
The utilization and ability to pick up and deliver people, business, or cargo utilities from point A to point B in the whole city plan area is unique for this idea. Because it uses the most standardized transport box globally, the ISO-Container,
PROBLEM: Hyperhidrosis is a condition that causes excessive sweating anywhere on your body where you have sweat glands. Palmar hyperhidrosis is characterized by excessive sweating in the palms. To reduce the amount of perspiration, a novel transdermal technique called iontophoresis is used.
Everyone's hands or feet sweat,
A proven technology developed in Spain, and we plan to make a technology transfer to the US for the conversion of cellulosic biomass directly, in a one-step process and a matter of seconds and highly energy-efficient into renewable,
The counter tillage machines are rotating in the counter rotation to the tractor wheels.
The cutting shanks are mounted on the rotating shaft in different angles and they cut very small depth in the soil.
Keltric high voltage power supply system is a special high voltage power system that boosts the efficiency of electrostatic motors to almost 99% efficiency using a special configuration of electronic components.
Currently electrostatic motors are said to be inefficient 5 -10% because of the way they've been powered today.
Robotic electric powered system for operating electric powered farm machines along it, while moving from row to row perpendicular to its length on electric powered wheels. The machines are collecting the electric energy from over hanging cables along the system.
I have a dream to make humans god-like; by giving humans capabilities like god as described by Hindu sacred texts like telekinesis, shapeshifting, Maya display and levitation. I have made the inventions that will make this possible.
Diamagnetic materials can be repelled,
My idea is to design and fabricate a 1/5th scale model of a basic transport infrastructure for rural communities using second hand scaffold tube. The track will be locally made under supervision and the trolleys are remotely controlled by WiFi so human to human contact is minimised or eliminated.
