Innovation and Applications
We are at the peak of the digitalization age which is making our surroundings smarter every day. There are many initiatives to make the buildings, vehicles, cities, etc., smart. However, we believe that better than making things smart, we need to make them sustainable, since sustainable things are inherently SMARTER.
The Dr. Cool is an innovative product, introduces an air cooling system with an application of Thermo Electric Coolers. The TEC is a semiconducting device working by the principle of Peltier Effect. The TEC’s has a cold and hot junctions, by the use of heatsink(fins) the heat is distributed.
You must have seen notice boards and information boards at various places such as schools, universities, offices, transport hubs, etc. The conventional method involves the use of paper or an entirely separate display system for such purposes respectively. These methods consume resources and time.
Introduction
Blockchain technology has caused a tremendous impact in both academia and business market. Since there are centralized servers used in generally, we have recognized:
The growth in load on the servers which might lead to server crashing and failure.
High dependency on external could services that might prove to be high in cost.
VAYU is a modern tower cooler designed for urban spaces. It has a compact monolithic form with carefully packed components which enables it to purify the air and even cools it efficiently through evaporative cooling. With its simple geometrical and subtle design language, it blends into the home decor without compromising on cooling.
Based on user observation,
For large property owners, routine maintenance like mowing and snow removal are ongoing and time consuming. A machine that could perform a portion if not all of these tasks autonomously would free up considerable time and conceivably use less fuel for the same task. Production costs may also be reduced by eliminating the need to accommodate a passenger.
Preamble:
In our day to day life engineering interventions are unavoidable, since engineering is well aligned with our lifestyle. A decay back engineering can be differentiate from one stream to another stream; According to world industrial growth, industry 4.0, Automotive emission norms Euto-6, various engineering streams are get integrated. Especially Automotive engineering well blended with Electrical, Electronics, computation,
Non-invasive imaging at centimeter depths in tissue is possible with computational diffuse optical imaging (DOI). Camera measurements of scattered light at the tissue surface are interpreted with a light transport model to reconstruct optical parameters within the tissue, providing contrast for object detection, localization, and identification.
Monitoring patients in hospitals tends to be limited to floor mounted machines. This project moves the monitoring to a wrist or taped monitoring system that can include patient owned smart phones and fitness devices.
Flower Harvesting BOT is a new innovative idea which is developed in concern with Farm Labor, in order to reduce the work and time consumption of laborers. Generally, flower plants will be having the harmful thorns which harms the flower plucking laborers while plucking the flowers. Using the BOT, we can reduce this risk and harmless.
