Electric car owners sometimes need to make a longer distance trip than the electric range will allow. Camping trips are often taken taken across country. Long distance truckers travel hundreds of miles.
People just want to take trips without getting tired at their destination.
I've invented a process to remotely control the color of vehicle interiors via any smart phone.
This invention advocates the setting up of a global cloud computing network with websites designated as e-lab.gov to handle processing of laboratory ananlysis by interactive internet-linked interface (11,12,13) as shown in Figure 2 would be managed by the World Wide Web Corporation (3WC) and other service providers.
MobiCool Liquid cooling device
Mobicool liquid cooling device is a mobile cooling unit which contains a compact but power-full refrigeration unit connected with one handy cooling tube via flexible pipes which can cool any liquid by immersing the tube into liquid,
Losing a removable lid to a container can be frustrating. Using a garbage can as an example, the lid can be thrown away with the garbage, blown away by the wind, carried away by a dog, and lost by countless other ways.
The Problem

A LiveSync pointer is a pointer which has an extra function: the laser point appears live in a presentation casted online exactly where the presenter points in the room.
Nano/ microfilaments of Copper can conduct electricity 9 to 30% more efficiently. This is my Open Source Science contribution.
Electricity conductors, nowadays, are still constrained to physical approaches. Chemistry has been for decades put apart.In some free lance research for the last 20 years,
The Inverted Gas Turbine
Background
“Warming of the climate system is unequivocal.” [1] Fossil fuels have afforded humanity an unprecedented high standard of living at an equally high cost to the environment.
The basis idea would be to establish a network of entities and organizations interested in seeing the USA lead the effort towards producing Electric Flight Propulsion systems.
This can only be accomplished by the collaborative efforts of universities, private companies, airports and research institutions.
