The Hyperion solar array would be a constellation of transpolar satellites equipped with retractable reflective dishes. When deployed, the dishes redirect sunlight toward any asteroid or comet that threatens the Earth. The redirected sunlight can be used in many ways.
The insulated pulse-combustion engine is a reciprocating piston engine concept which explores the five pathways of non-productive energy export from internal combustion engines (thermal conduction, exhaust heat, exhaust pressure, exhaust pollution, and mechanical losses) in an effort to improve fuel economy.
The greatest challenge in the field of aviation is to meet the growing concern of depleting fuel source for efficient propulsion of the vehicle. The advanced propulsion techniques look at tackling the challenges with an innovative aero engine.
Two common features are generally found with every human activity: the presence of light, either from the sun or man made sources, and the presence of fibers, such as in the clothes we wear. Now imagine if the fibers making our clothes are efficient converters of light into energy.
SmartWaY is a project whose main objective is the creation of accessible and affordable solutions for vehicle diagnostics using the latest technologies.
Required components:
- Bluetooth OBD2-adapter (required for data transmission from the Electronic Control Unit vehicle to a smartphone),
This is Wireless Solar Panel Heated Windshield Wiper Blade.
It is easy to install. Its performance is much better than Wire Heated Windshield Wiper Blade. There is no electric wire or hot water tube. The Solar Panel saves and makes power, and then makes the frame and rubber warm.
Paradoxically, the idea that underlies “On the Origin of Species,” written by Charles Darwin comes from geology. Just as rivers have created large geological formations so natural selection has created animals with an optimal configuration, relative to the environment in which they live.
The huge amount of smoke the Internal Combustion Engine of an automobile (truck/car/bus) bellows, versus the clean ride we all enjoy on a bicycle, made me think of a cleaner source of energy to run the automobile which is not dependent on any sort of crude,
