This device will replace the need for dialysis and kidney transplantation both of which have major detractions. Our device eliminates these issues. Transplantation, costing close to $110,000, removes the personnel and institutional costs associated with dialysis. Yet, it has significant fixed costs for anti-rejection drugs,
Every year in the US loss a lot of people's lives and cost billions dollars on fires.- when the houses -cities - forests - and anywhere gets on fire. We use this project to stop right away the fires. First we'll need the water tanks.
The HHO powered engine runs in a sealed loop, circulating noble gas with HHO electrolysed from water. The input is 6 watts from driven alternator, and output around 35,000 kw. Engines are not cylinder engines rather compressionstroke and compressionless engine cores that displace twice there volume per rev,
This technology is a device that uses electrical activity to facilitate the wound healing process while protecting the wound. The bandage is made of an electroactive material (pictured above) that is stimulated by the heat of the body and the pressure of cell growth,
The purpose of this project is to propose a new propeller-type climbing robot for climbing various types of structures which include significant obstacles, besides inspection of industrial vessels made of various materials, including non-ferromagnetic material.
I'm presenting a very unique concept regarding a train system which will move with its own power.
The new processor pushes back boundaries with outstanding performance and extraordinary efficiency. Its number crunching qualities are undisputed. The 1 kHz processor (eight bit wide) delivers 18,000 petaflops of calculation. It is a system of using decimal or higher number system in processor;
Solar and wind energy are clean and renewable but their energy content is both low and costly to store. A two-mirror solar Stirling engine (SE) design could be a major step towards the high efficiency (>
The laws of physics restrict the rotational speeds of traditional large generators due to the increased centrifugal forces. Hoover Dam generators run at around 1.5 - 2.0 Hz.;
Dynamic Energy Technologies has patented a means of utilizing vehicle ride motion to generate electrical power. This electrical energy downloads the inefficient ICE/alternator combination. A 90% efficient alternator powered by a 20% average duty cycle ICE gas engine wastes 82% of the fuel consumed when producing electrical energy.
