Our Portable Solar Generator is a 1.2kW solar array connected to a support structure (mast) with a battery box base that holds 3600Ah of stored energy. This is a Solar + Storage device that has many uses; for example, LMI housing, mobile surgical hospitals, disaster relief, the U.S. military,
The proposed idea is based on an intelligent bathroom mirror on which the health-related body parameters such as Blood Pressure, Heart Rate, SpO2 level, Weight, Height, Body Mass Index (BMI), Body Temperature, Room Temperature, Bathroom Tap Water Temperature etc. will be displayed in real time.
INTRODUCTION:
A dream it was for a man to fly before the invention of aircraft. In the esteemed domain of aircraft, landing is the most challenging part, where most of the accidents have happened.
PROBLEM DEFINITION - After some research,
This device would use a small camera such as used in cell phones, probably attached to an eyeglass frame to observe the anticipated path of a person of limited vision or blind. A computer would check the image for posts, stairs,
Every Drop Counts is an electronic system to measure the volume of water flowing through a mechanical meter using an audio sensor. It uses audio to enable much higher resolution than what is normally able to read by the inbuilt magnetic sensor.
The possibility to diagnose quality of motor oil by using the method of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for comparison of optical refraction indexes inherent to the initial fresh oil and to that used for different exploitation terms.
This design is based in more than five years of experimentation, which was originated by our aim to make the High UVI/RH coastal Peruvian desert.
Mars UVC & UVB at surface is assumed to be ~ 10 times Earth and UVA close to our planet values.
The system is to be funded by Public / Private Partnership with a 30% government investment.
The Catch all Harvest concept
Goals-Increase agricultural production and profitability. Low cost, low technology and easy installation.
The concept is designed to reduce wasted produce that falls to the ground.
A net beneath the tree or bush (the illustrations are for apple orchards).
The problem is warming up thermosensor when measuring resistance as a result of the allocation of Joule heat.
To control thermosensor (Fig. 1, a) proposed a contact device (Fig. 1b) with elastic gold contacts and measuring pulse duration was 100 ms (Fig. 1, B).
