BEST COOLER FOR ENERGY SAVING DEVICES

EMILY CUMMIN'S BEST COOLER

This invention is probably the best cooler for energy saving devices because it doesn't use energy. It doesn't use electricity, solar photovoltaics, or batteries.

It was invented by a 22 year old British student who has a history of creating innovative, award winning products.

Made from household materials her cooler invention maintains a temperature that preserves perishable foods and medicine.

It is a solar cooler that consists of two tubes with one inside the other. 

It uses solar heat and evaporation to create natural biological cooling best cooler. 

The principle is similar to how perspiration cools our bodies.

The inner tube is made of metal and is the receptacle used to store perishables. 

It also keeps the contents dry.

The outer tube is made of any sturdy material such as wood, plastic, bamboo, ceramic or clay and has holes in it.

The inner tube is fitted inside the outer tube with a gap between them which is filled with sand, wool, soil or any material that will absorb water.

Solar energy (sunshine) heats the tube causing the water to evaporate from the gap material. 

This evaporation removes heat from the inner tube lowering the temperature inside to about 6ºC (42ºF).

Renewing the gap material with water keeps the cooler operating.

 When she was 16, Emily Cummins from Keighley, West Yorkshire, won the Young Engineer for Britain Award for a toothpaste container she invented to help people who suffered from arthritis.

The following year she won the Sustainable Design Award for a portable water carrier she invented to help people in developing countries transport water.

A year later, Emily's best cooler invention won the York Merchant Adventurers Award.

"I wanted to keep it really simple and so I set about researching how we cooled things years ago. 

The simplest method of cooling something could be seen when you look at how we cool biologically - through sweating or evaporation," says Emily.

Emily has traveled to Africa to distribute her invention to those communities most in need of her cooler, where she is known affectionately by residents as "the fridge lady".

LIGHT GLOWS WITHOUT ELECTRICITY

GRAVITY LIGHT

It's called a GravityLight™ and it works without needing electricity.

It doesn't use any batteries. 

It doesn't use any fuel. 

It doesn't need solar power.

This means that 2 billion people who don't have electricity can use this invention to light up their ho

Bill Gates called this $6 invention "a pretty cool innovation".

Over 2 billion people on earth don't have electricity but these simple inventions are helping.

This is the most efficient and effective way to resolve the problems of those people who do not have the electricity on the earth.

Most live in rural or remote areas that are off the electrical grid but others can't afford electricity because they're poor and live on less than $2 a day.

Inventors have been working on this problem and have created effective, inexpensive, simple inventions that don't require electricity.

Jane Chen and Rajan Patel are co-inventors of the award winning incubator pouch for premature babies.

Jessica Lin, along with co-inventors, Hemali Thakker, Julia Silverman and Jessica Matthews invented the sOccket, an award winning innovation that uses a soccer ball to harness and store electrical energy when kicked.

Multiple award winning inventor Emily Cummins created an inexpensive, simple, natural biological cooler that refrigerates perishable foods and medicine.

image of gravity light inventionThe latest simple invention to address this electricity problem comes from co-inventors Jim Reeves and Martin Riddiford.

They spent four years developing their award winning GravityLight™, which is a light that requires no electricity, no batteries or solar dependency to operate. 

Instead it uses the force of gravity to create light.

A weight is connected to the end of a rope that loops through the light casing. The light is hung from any structure or tree.

 You pull on the rope to lift the weight to the casing.

When you let go of the rope the weight gradually falls and pulls the rope through gears that turn a small generator to power LEDS on the light.

The light shines for about 25 minutes and it only takes 3 seconds to pull the rope to restart the cycle again.

To demonstrate the feasibility of their invention they decided to raise funds for field testing. 

They launched a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo to raise $55,000 but received close to $400,000.

photo of Bill Gates Jim acknowledges that the success and support for the campaign was helped by an unexpected endorsement from Bill Gates who tweeted, "GravityLight is a pretty cool innovation which could be a source of cheap light in developing markets."

TALKING WITH APPLIANCES

THE ENERGYHUB DASHBOARD

One of the cool new gadgets to hit the market is a touchscreen device that allows you to communicate with anything consuming energy in your home.

Inventor Seth Frader-Thompson's new invention has been named one of the "best new gadgets" and "breakthrough ideas of the year" by Time Magazine.

The EnergyHub Dashboard is a device that allows you to wirelessly communicate with all your appliances.

The touch screen device receives wireless information from "plug-ins" in your electrical sockets and provides details of usage for every energy consuming product in the home - everything from your furnace and air conditioner to a specific light bulb, cell phone or alarm clock.

It even tracks leak current (the power used by devices that are plugged-in but not being used).

Although many of us are motivated to reduce our carbon footprint and power consumption by changing our lights or upgrading to Energy Star appliances.

This doesn't tell us exactly what's happening with consumption.

Our utility bills give us total power usage but nothing about what would happen if our thermostat was reduced by a few degrees or if a specific appliance was replaced, shut-off or used on a certain schedule.

The EnergHub provides this type of information and allows you to control and schedule the energy usage of anything in the home.

GESTURE RECOGNITION BRACELET

MYO - ARMBAND

This gesture recognition bracelet is one of the cool new gadgets that lets you control devices by moving your hands.

Invented by Stephen Lake, Matthew Bailey and Aaron Grant. 

The MYO armband (derived from the prefix "myo" meaning related to muscle) can identify hand gestures by interpreting biometric signals in your arm.

When making a particular hand motion such as pointing, the armband can identify the gesture, It allows the pointing motion to be associated with a specific command for a digital device.

You can use hand signals to interact with televisions, computers, phones or any smart technology system. 

The importance of this technology is that it enables you to interact more naturally with devices by reducing the need for input peripherals like mice, keyboards or touchscreens.

MYO armband The problem with current gesture recognition technology like Wii by Nintendo or Kinect by Microsoft, is that it requires you to be in a specific location.

This is because motion sensors and cameras require positioning coordinates to accurately intrepret your motions using complex algorithms.

gesture recognition The MYO technology does not require positioning coordinates and therefore allows greater freedom of movement.

Gestures are identified by muscular and electrical activity in the forearm. 

This detection occurs without any electrodes touching the skin, and the recognition is instantaneous.

MYO currently recognizes about 20 gestures. For example, it recognizes the swiping motions we use to scroll a page on a touchscreen.

MYO is designed as a one-size-fits-all device. 

It uses Bluetooth 4.0, features on-board, rechargeable lithium-ion batteries and works out-of-the-box with your Mac or Windows PC.

The launch of approximately 25,000 units is expected later this year.

WATER POWERED CLOCK

WATER CLOCK

You fill it with water and it operates as any normal LCD digital clock - displaying the date and time in easy to read digits. 

The water powered clock doesn't require any batteries.

In fact, you can fill it with any pop or fruit juice, even coffee or beer and it will still work. 

A clear casing allows you to see your beverage of choice inside the clock.

Here is how it works---

The secret is that the water clock is a battery.

Inside is an electrolyte cell with two metal posts.

An electrolyte battery or cell (see: organic battery also: baghdad battery) needs two dissimilar metals - one copper and one zinc - and a connection between them to complete a circuit.

When the posts are immersed in a liquid that conducts electricity (water) then electrons flow from one post to the other creating a current.

The electric current powers the clock. If you add fruit juice, or soda pop, it makes the liquid more conductive.

WORLD'S FASTEST MOTOR

CELEROTON

A new motor developed by researchers at ETH Zurich's Department of Power Electronics and marketed by the Swiss company, Celeroton, can spin in excess of 1 million revolutions per minute.

As a comparison, collapsed stars spin at 60,000 rpms, a blender at about 30,000 and high performance engines at around 10,000 rpms.

The matchbook-sized motor has a titatnium shell, ultra-thin wiring and a trade secret iron formulated cylinder. 

The need for smaller electronic devices requires smaller holes, which means smaller, faster, more efficient drills.

CLOUD COMPUTING

CLOUD COMPUTING

Analysts predict that the latest technology inventions in cloud computing will significantly influence how we use our computers and mobile devices.

Cloud computing is where tasks and file storage on your computer are performed and stored elsewhere.

By using an internet connection you can connect to a service that has the architecture, infrastructure and software to manage any task or storage requirement at less cost.

The advantages of cloud computing is that it eliminates the difficulty and expense of maintaining, upgrading and scaling your own computer hardware and software while increasing efficiency, speed and resources.

Your computer's processing speed, memory capacity, software applications and maintenance requirements are minimized.

You could store and access any size or type of file, play games, use or develop applications, render videos, word process, make scientific calculations, or anything you want, by simply using a smart phone.

As a comparison, let's say you had to generate your own electricity. You would need to maintain, upgrade and scale these resources as required to meet your demands. 

This would be expensive and time consuming.

Cloud computing could be compared to how a utility provides electricity. 

It has the architecture, infrastructure, applications, expertise and resources to generate this service for you. 

You just connect to their grid.

Microsoft, IBM and Google are some of the companies that are investing heavily into the research and development of cloud technology.

WATER DROP LENS

LIQUID OPTICAL LENS

Physicist and inventor, Bruno Berge, has created a liquid optical lens.

Using a process known as electro-wetting, a water drop is deposited on a metal substrate and covered by a thin insulating layer. When a voltage is applied to the metal, it modifies the angle of the liquid drop.

The liquid lens is comprised of two liquids, water and oil, one is a conductor while the other is an insulator. 

A variation in the voltage causes a change to the curvature of the liquid to liquid interface, which changes the focal length of the lens.

The use of liquids allows for low cost construction. 

There are no moving parts and electrical consumption is extremely low. 

The lens has a large inverse focal length range, quick response, high optical quality and can operate in a wide temperature range.

A HOUSE THAT WALKS

ECO-FRIENDLY N55 HOUSE

A new prototype house walked around the campus of the Wysing Arts Centre in Cambridgeshire, England.

The eco-friendly house is powered by solar cells and minature windmills, and comes with a kitchen, a composting toilet, a system for collecting rain water, one bed, a wood stove for CO2 neutral heating, a rear opening that forms a stairway entrance, and six legs.

image of a waling house A collaborative effort between MIT and the Danish design collective N55. 

The house walks about five kilometers an hour similar to the walking speed of a human.

The legs reguire a software algorithm to calculate the movement and position of the legs to provide stability over varying terrain.

The house can turn, move forward or backwards, or change height as required and can be programmed with GPS waypoints for traveling to destinations.

VEIN IDENTIFICATION

PALM SECURE

Another technology innovation is the biometric identification and security device known as PalmSecure.

It works by identifying the vein pattern in the palms of our hands.

Similar to our fingerprints, vein patterns are unique to each individual. 

The purported advantages of this technology is that it is less expensive,

 easier to manage,

 and is more reliable than traditional methods of identification.

ATMOSPHERIC WATER GENERATOR

AIR INTO WATER- WATERMILL

Johathan Ritchey has invented the Watermill, which is an atmospheric water generator. 

It converts air into fresh water.

This latest technology invention produces fresh water at a cost of about 3 cents a liter (1 quart).

Originally designed for areas that do not have clean drinking water.

The Watermill is for households that prefer an eco-friendly, cost effective alternative to bottled water.

Atmospheric water generators convert air into water when the temperature of the air becomes saturated with enough water vapor that it begins to condense (dew point).

"What is unique about the Watermill is that it has intelligence." 

This makes the appliance more efficient. It samples the air every 3 minutes to determine the most efficient time to convert the air into water.

It will also tell you when to change the carbon filter and will shut itself off if it cannot make pure clean water.

CUSTOMER SELF-SERVICE SCHEME

CUSTOMER SELF-SERVICE

It’s clear that most customers will do just about anything to avoid talking to a live customer support representative, and there has been a proliferation of automated technologies in recent years to help them help themselves. 

From live chat to ecommerce platforms, customers are using tech to self-educate through the majority of the buying process and much of the support process.

In 2017, AI will take customer self-service to the next level through applying cognitive solutions to the discovery process, providing useful information to customers they may not have known they needed.

The purchase of an item can trigger the delivery of a whitepaper on how to competitively position it, a form to register for a related webinar or an alert on an upcoming trade show.

The mobile-first and mobile-only ecosystem will demand responsive designs of portals and automated systems, and customer self-service platforms will feed data on customer behavior and buying patterns to internal sales and support teams to improve business performance.

Automating, customizing and managing dashboards and portals will be a big opportunity for the channel in 2017.

SEGWAY ROBOTS

NINEBOT SEGWAY

The Ninebot isn’t your typical Segway. It comes with a built-in 3D camera to give you better depth perception and object recognition while you’re riding. 

These cameras come with a global-positioning system (GPS) so you can easily track your location.

The vehicle also comes with voice-recognition software, so you can control it both during your trip and when you’ve hopped off the scooter. 

Much like the Carl Zeiss smart glasses, the robot Segway can sync to your smartphone and perform many of the same functions, such as application management and video sending.

When you’re not riding the Ninebot, the device can follow you around and carry your groceries for you.

It also has a fresh new design, sporting arms and a screen as the head.

BLUE ORIGIN

BLUE ORIGIN- FLIGHTS INTO SPACE

Amazon and Blue Origin founder Jeff Bezos is preparing to launch commercial flights into space in 2017. 

The main aim is of flying 100 suborbital flights a year. 

His New Shepard shuttle will pass just beyond the Kármán line, 100 kilometres above sea level.

It's intended to let six passengers experience weightlessness before it lands by parachute.

It would be be a grand success for all the people  as they can from now onwords travel into space.

XSTAT-30

XSTAT-30 STOP'S BLEEDING WITHIN 15 SECONDS

Whenever you get a deep wound on an arm or a leg, you can usually slow down the bleeding with a tourniquet that restricts the blood flow to the injured area, giving you time to seek medical attention without bleeding out.

Problem is, the same kind of solution doesn’t exactly apply when the deep wound is in the torso, armpit, or groin, increasing the chances you’ll bleed out before receiving any help. 

The XStat 30 is a new dressing that can help with that.

It is mainly used by the military (and recently approved by the FDA for civilians), it consists of a large syringe containing small sponges that you can use to plug up a wound and restrain the bleeding.

 The military uses it in battlefield situations whenever a soldier has been hit, increasing their chances of making it back to the station to get proper medical care.

To use, simply inject the XStat 30 syringe into the wound, where it will release a sponge in order to properly plug it up.

Each sponge will absorb blood upon contact, growing in size to accommodate the vital fluid. 

Within fifteen seconds of being administered, the sponge should grow large enough that it can completely seal a bullet wound, and stop the bleeding. 

One syringe can hold up to 92 tablet-sized sterile sponges.

TOYOTA FUTURISTIC CAR

TOYOTA CONCEPT-I 

Toyota has launched the new Futuristic car named Concept-i a symbol of exellency.Toyota doesn't believe the future of the car is only about teaching vehicles to drive for us.But the Concept-i vehicle shown at CES would be capable of driving autonomously, The car is having a huge artificial intelligence that powers it.Toyota claims the car will be able to learn more about the drivers' preferences and needs over time.

Such as suggesting destinations after a driver chats with the vehicle's virtual assistant, called "Yui."

3D-PRINTED HOUSE

3D- PRINTRD HOUSE 

3D-printed house are being one of the innovations of 2017.
