The internal combustion engine has been with us for over 100 years, and has seen a myriad of changes in its design, efficiency, and reliability over the years. We have seen carburetors being replaced by fuel injection, dynamos replaced by alternators, and ignition systems seeing many changes,
Back in high high school I was helpless seeing my paralyzed father every day in bed. In 3rd year I thought of making a device through which a patient can be independent. So, I came up with an idea of controlling electronics through the eye, in my case an "eye controlled mouse.
In general, lower limb disabled people do their daily activities on wheelchairs. The disabled people encounter difficulties when they have to ascend or descend the stairs. For example:
• enter or exit buildings that have no ramps,
•
This invention has to do with biophotonic materials that induce the mitochondrial electron transport chain to improve upon itself and actually prolong life. It is a system that once used can effectively reverse the aging process through the use of light and water.
OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT
To bring refrigeration and air conditioning by using heat pipes alone in domestic refrigeration and air conditioning systems instead of using heat pipes in combination with evaporator and condenser coils and compressor.
The main aim of the project is to prevent accidents that is increasing day by day on the roads. The GPS with micro controller detects the accident black spots that has been preloaded in the memory matching with current latitudes and longitudes.
The objective of this system is to develop a proof of concept model to demonstrate the use of the system for spontaneous advertisement/circular using wireless communication based on RF module- nRF24L01. This is implemented with Atmega16 development board interfaced with RF module and LED matrix for displaying the data.
The main aim of this topic is to introduce the concept of reusing the external tank of a space shuttle. To achieve this we are proposing to use Thermal Protection System (TPS) in conjunction with a High Temperature Heat Shield (HTHS).
Quasiturbine engine
The Quasiturbine (Qurbine) is a « Positive Displacement » turbine alternative.
Suitable as a double-circuits Rotary Motor or Expander for compressed air, steam and other fluids, or (later) as an advanced Internal Combustion Rotary Engine, as well as (later) for Compressor of various thermodynamic cycles.
Continuous Deposition Arc Foaming is a Geomimetic 3D Printing process that allows for large-scale production of stochastic foams of a variety of materials including glass, metal, cermet, and fullerenes. Proof-of-Concept has been achieved by nature with fulgurite.
