Leonardo Da Vinci once said "simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." In today's day and age simplicity means reliability and cost effectiveness. The product we are introducing validates yesterday's and today's meaning of simplicity. We developed and patented a new type of traction drive that can replace gear drives and belt systems in many of today's motion applications. The drive was designed with simplicity in mind and encompass's the lowest amount of moving parts possible, having only six moving parts. In this case we are replacing a standard V-belt system with a traction drive unit.

Fire accidents in unmanned warehouses are one of the most common types of news. The blaze breaks out in 'PATCHI ' warehouse, Al-Quoz ,UAEin September 2013 made to enquire about cause of fire & later paved the way to suggest solution to control the fire at its earlier stage.

The concept of self-organizing tendencies, although touched upon in domains such as physics, chemistry, search methodology and biology, has recently gained increased acceptance owing to discoveries in nanotechnology and astrophysics. Advances in nanotechnology are rapidly expanding the scope of understanding of the fundamental mysteries of this universe.

QVLA is an LED based technology used for industrial position sensing. It utilizes an ultra-stable LED light source to fill a volume, such as a pneumatic cylinder, with diffuse light. As the amount of light measured within this volume changes, the resulting change can be resolved into linear or rotary motion. The resulting sensors are rugged, inexpensive, fast, and non-contact. These sensors could be used to replace traditional potentiometers, LVDT's, or magnetostrictive sensors all at a reduced cost and higher MTBF.

Problem:
India is a nation renowned for its street-food and Paanipuri is one of those delicacies which attracts every Indian. However, lack of hygiene of Indian vendors remains a major concern with this mouth-watering dish. While the number of cases of typhoid, jaundice, cholera and gastrointestinal diseases remain high, the attraction for this dish never dies off. In the simplest terms, Paanipuri consists of hollow, oval shaped, fried and crisp chip stuffed with spiced potato mash and flavored water. The problem of hygiene originates from the way the vendor puts them together with bare hand and the surroundings in which the dish is prepared. Further, the chips are very fragile. A small mistake in making hole may break the whole chip. As panipuri is served individually and only one piece at a time, it becomes difficult to serve many people simultaneously. So there is also scope to improve the speed of serving by parallel stuffing.

The recognition drone for inaccessible areas was designed to help in the maintenance of areas with poor accessibility to humans, reducing the costs and riskiness, making it perfect for maintenance, monitoring and strategic planning operations in hazardous areas. It can reduce the cost and increase the quality of repairs on electrical lines and telecommunications towers or diagnose a fissure or obstruction in a coal mine or at pipes of air-conditioning systems. It can also be used to monitor and study damaged buildings in danger of collapse or fire, in order to find better strategies without risking the lives of firefighters and engineers.

Due to exhausting fossil fuels and other non renewable energy sources, we have to switch to renewable energy sources and completely depend on it in the near future.

Conventional cars have powerful drivetrains for fast acceleration and brakes to stop the car. They are heavy, costly, space consuming and waste a lot of energy. Only 1/6 of the energy is utilized to drive the vehicle.

The newly patented All-Purpose (AP) Lazer system has the potential of surpassing 3D printing in the market.

On the 1st of September, the European innovation network EIT ICT Labs launches the second round of its Idea Challenge. The EU wide contest for innovators and early stage startups in the field of ICT provides essential resources to boost a business: cash, office spaces, coaching and access to some of the world's leading universities, research institutes and companies, such as Siemens, SAP, IBM, Intel and Philips.

Colourful LEDs made from a material known as perovskite could lead to LED displays which are both cheaper and easier to manufacture in future.

A hybrid form of perovskite - the same type of material which has recently been found to make highly efficient solar cells that could one day replace silicon - has been used to make low-cost, easily manufactured LEDs, potentially opening up a wide range of commercial applications in future, such as flexible colour displays.
