Hand Dryers Use up large quantities of electricity in small amounts of time. Heat coils aren't efficient, and are not meant to be efficient in the first place. Hand dryers use up at least 1100 watts of energy.
I had a an Idea to design and develop new transportation system, which involves vehicles and road sensed by satellites. Each vehicle will not have steering, data will be entered regarding where to go and at what speed.
This is an intelligent bend machine for steel rod and wire that detect the bend error (spring effect) and automatically makes the correction.
The machines have a wireless system that can communicate with all the computers in the factory, sending and receiving information about the process in real time,
This project evolved from a study of convective flow I was aware of in the Navy, NASA's conquering of the Moon, an interest in MHD and the building of the ISS.
This Advanced Key and System allows to prevent Key locked inside the Vehicle. It is normally very frustrating and difficult when door is locked with the key inside. This system uses sensor in Key and Vehicle Door. The system uses Logical programming which is as follows.
Vehicle propulsion systems are the integration of energy storage (diesel, gasoline, batteries etc) with energy transformation (chemical to mechanical, chemical to electrical to mechanical, etc) systems. For an electric (core technology) based vehicles, electric storage in batteries has been limiting.
