The New Engine has two small pistons per cylinder. A Valve Piston and a Crank Piston. The Crank Piston rotates a Planetary Gear that rotates both crankshafts synchronized 1:1 with timing gears. It runs on Methane/Vegetable Oil Mix, or Ethanol/Vegetable Oil Mix, Fuel you make yourself.
The LayMaster 3000, designed by Engr. Obasogie Okpamen, is an innovative pipeline construction truck engineered to streamline the process of laying and welding pipelines in difficult terrains. This all-in-one mobile platform integrates essential pipeline construction functions, significantly enhancing efficiency, safety, and operational effectiveness in the field.
First-person view (FPV) drone racing is a televised sport where professional competitors pilot high-speed aircraft through a three-dimensional circuit, achieving astonishing speeds. We built the first AI pilot that flies faster than human world champions: Swift.
This breakthrough represents a significant step forward in robotics research.
Cold fusion, combining protons (i.e., hydrogen nuclei or ions at or near room temperature) for usable heat is a promising approach for the future of energy. It can reduce our planet's reliance on fossil fuels, reducing pollution and other environmental issues (e.g., oil spills). However,
DTM an invention that arises from experience, from the concept to its patent, now working to see how that seed grows waiting to see the launch of this technology since it provides more than 10 advantages over traditional detection, improving the performance of the devices. sensors from any manufacturer,
Many homes get a momentary vibration whenever a heavy vehicle contacts a manhole cover, while driving. This can cause damage to the house over time. This issue can be greatly reduced, or eliminated, by not building the manhole all the way up to the road.
The increasing popularity of helium-assisted blimps for extended monitoring or data collection applications is hindered by a critical limitation -- single-point failure when the balloon malfunctions or bursts. We introduce Janus,
In the Mexican Yucatan Peninsula, we have hard water with high mineral content. To lower the calcium we use reverse osmosis. This method use energy and required constant maintenance and supervision.
We researched and found a low-temperature and low-pressure distillation water process as an option.
There is some 60 million tons of already mined and processed critical mineral copper wasting away in local council dumps. By autonomously ploughing through the rubbish with our awrd winning MINE THE BEST. LEAVE THE REST mineral extraction mining system,
Most of the current Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) aircraft use tilting propellers or wings acted by servo-motors or actuators which increase the complexity and reduce the failure probability of the propulsion system. The cost of such a vehicle is high and the maintenance operations are complicated.
