Parenting is not an easy task. Good parenting requires the parent to quickly respond to the needs of their child. Constant monitoring of the child also becomes a necessity, especially up to an age of 18 months. In earlier days, parents relied on hearing the cries of their child. It was simple back in the day,
There are certain areas within a city which require better safety systems when it comes to driving. Residential areas and schools for example feature a high pedestrian activity which increases the risk of accidents. In order to do that, speed limiters have been installed on the road,
ABSTRACT:
The use of sensors has proved to be beneficiary in the design of adaptive and safety measures for automobiles. Traffic squares and crossovers are amongst the major accident prone areas;
My concept proposes the use of drones to grab fruit from trees. Drone flies up and park on the air near the fruit in such a manner that the fruit enters the mouth of the drone, then using a 360 degree razor blade it separates the fruit from the branch.
A NOVEL METHOD FOR SELF REGULATED COIL WINDING MACHINE
The conventional coil winding machine winds copper wire onto a former (winding fixture). The number of slots in the former depends upon the design class of the motor. Mechanical counters are used to count the number of turns wound up on the former.
To overcome the difficulties pertaining to painting the exterior walls, herewith we propose a fully automated wall painting system powered by a micro controller. The system has an movable overhead machine consisting of paint storage tank, air compressor to spray the paint, a display and keyboard interface to control the input operations.
Short Message Service (SMS) has become a user friendly way of communication between people because of its ability to convey information when unable to make a voice call. In this paper,
Our project is a solution for improving the present form of ‘Baggage handling system’ at airports. The main objective of our project is to create a system which is error free (zero error probability) and is faster than the present system.
For this we are promoting use of RFID tags on baggage and tickets instead of barcode tags.
Theoretical analysis
In this work, an endeavor has been presented to modify the conventional rear disc braking system in a motorcycle. In two wheeler, when a pillion load is added, the normal static reaction increases on the rear wheel and during braking operation, the normal dynamic reaction starts decreasing on rear wheel. Furthermore,
So, you are on an airport with too many bags and you are struggling to carry them. Won’t it be cool if one or two of them automatically follow you without you pulling them? Well, Tracktech is a technology that helps you do the same!
What is the idea?
