New Technology Provides Reliable, Less Expensive, Dynamic Control Of Air And Watercraft Propeller Pitch Page Views: 266 Transportation
G Paul Baker JR, Denham Springs, LA US Votes: 11 10/17/2008

Currently, propeller pitch control uses three approaches: it is based upon either hydrolic oil pressure, mechanical control using lateral motion along the axis of the drive shaft, or electric motor control with the drive motor embedded in the hub. All three of these techniques are either expensive to manufacture and install, or expensive to maintain due to high wear rates or the close machine tolerances required. The First Image is a conceptual sketch of the Angular

Safe Speed Page Views: 215 Safety and Security
Gregory Crosby, Clinton, MS US Votes: 3 09/22/2008

Safe Speed is a software solution that limits the speed a vehicle can attain but cannot surpass. The program can be run on any device that has a windows based operating system, available COM port or USB port (also considering Wireless and Bluetooth connections). The device connects to the OBD II (On-Board Diagnostic Systems) usually within 1 meter of the steering wheel. (All cars built since January 1, 1996 have OBD-II systems) When the device (laptop/desktop/pda) is

Mitran Ashok, CHENNAI, NA IN Votes: 7 09/12/2008

Working of the design: This is how a car equipped with my design will ease threw a, could have been mishap- a dirty, devastating accident. The car is fitted with a sensor on the four sides, along with a real time, permanent, speed tracker, which tracks and stores the normal speed of a car. The sensor senses vehicles in front of it, from a distance of 100m. It takes into account the speed of the car, the relative

Generating electricity using speed breakers Page Views: 553 Sustainable Technology
Mohit Yadav, Navi Mumbai,   IN Votes: 6 08/17/2008

At present we are facing shortage of electricity. electricity can be generated using speed breakers,strange, isn't it?The benefits from this idea will be to generate electricity for the streetlights, hoardings and then for other use. The functioning will be as follows: 1.The speed breaker on a busy road will be lifted from one side and fixed on other side( on one way road) 2. There will be a crankshaft mechanism below the speed breaker.The shaft of
