The Problem:
Low air pressure tires skid and hydroplane more easily. This greatly consumes more fuel and reduces tire life. A Tire Pressure Monitoring System or TPMS is a system to monitor the air pressure inside the automobiles tires.
Maglev Car
Nowadays the technology is drifting towards to levitate a vehicle from the road. In order to implement this, magnetic concept can be utilized. Whenever any vehicle moves on the road two things are very important.
Our work describes the design, fabrication and flight testing of an RC aircraft (for surveillance) powered with an Electric Ducted Fan (EDF). The configuration and layout of the aircraft was inspired by MiG-29 and F-35B; hence it has a swept high wing,
The Problem:
History has seen many tragedies and disasters which can cause serious damage to spacecraft like the event of March 1991, intense solar activity took place causing satellite anomalies, power surges on power grids. This sun storm damaged the MARITIME EUROPEAN COMMUNICATION SATELLITE (MARECS)-1 completely.
REFWD-CLUTCH MECHANISM
The flywheel and clutch disc are in contact to transmit the engine power to the wheels. Rotational motion is transmitted from the engine-flywheel to the gearbox by using a clutch-system which is based on frictional properties.
Abstract- Due to limitations such as health problems like heart diseases, joint problems, aging problems we have designed & manufactured an automated machine named “Motorized Passive Exercising Setup For Diabetic Patients” which will get the exercise done from a patient.

INTRODUCTION
Every year more than 1.3 million people die worldwide due to car accidents. As engineering students, it’s our passion to try to find solutions to such problems.
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,
Opportunity
In the recent past, humans have put huge stress on the environment to meet their travel demands. One such example is fossil fuel which is fast depleting to meet the global transportation needs.
Motivation
There are about 576 million people aged more than 65 in the world today. Of these, approximately 350 million have arthritis. For these people, the stresses that develop in their knees when rising from a seated position can be uncomfortably high.
