Tent Of Future

2009-07-09T07:02:00.005+05:30

Orange has revealed about their latest solar powered tent which they gave the name 'tent of future'. This tent provide electric power. So during our camp visit, we can make all electronic instruments functioning. The Orange and American product design consultants, Kaleidoscope, worked together for the creation of this modern day tent. It can absorb solar energy and give power for the appliances inside. The tent uses a photovoltaic fabric to receive the maximum amount of energy directly from the sun throughout the day. This also includes a wireless internet signal on a touch screen display, and even a heating system, which kicks into action as soon as the temperature within the tent drops below a certain level.

So surely this is the tent of future.

Rubberised Metal

2009-07-08T07:30:00.003+05:30

When using metal tools, tiny cracks and dents are formed in the metal . So this new invension comes into play. The invention relates to an apparatus for affixing grommets to rubberized reinforced belts which have been previously punched with holes for receiving the grommets. The apparatus includes rolls for supporting the belt and advancing it past the grommet-installing station. The installing station includes a pair of forming dies and a positioning pin. The first forming die presses the grommet and the retaining plate firmly onto the belt and paritally bends the tabs of the grommet outwardly. The second forming die completes the bending of the tabs so that they lie parallel to the retaining plate. The locating pin passes through an installed grommet to precisely locate the holes in the belt in the grommet relative to the forming dies. The dies and the locating pin are carried on a common ram so that the initial forming or bending of the grommet tabs is performed at one hole while the final bending is simultaneously performed at an adjacent hole.

Forth Generation Technology

2009-07-08T07:17:00.002+05:30

This is the latest generation in which data transmission technology is higher. 4G is the short form for Forth Generation Technology. This is the next generation in the field of wireless technology.

LIFE SAVING TECHNOLOGIES
Now a days there exists a lot of technologies which can save one's life. One of them using now a days in europe is Symplicity Catheter System.

SYMPLICITY CATHETER SYSTEM

This technology is not approved by US but it is approved and used in Europe. This is a blood pressure treatment, a new way to battle chronic high blood pressure. Instead of taking a pill every day, patients go near a doctor for a one-time catheter treatment that delivers radio frequency energy to nerves around the kidney. That helps block overactive sympathetic nerves, which raise blood pressure. High blood pressure can lead to many life-threatening conditions, including heart attack and stroke. Hence a valuable life can be served.

TOGA System

This system too not approved by US.

A company called Satiety's product is TOGA. It tackles the deadly obesity epidemic by promising to reduce the size of the person's stomach without surgery. This will reduce the weight of the person. It is done as, when the person is comfortably sedated, a doctor inserts a special device down your throat. It staples your stomach together to create a small food pouch, making you feel full after just a small meal. The doctor then removes the device.

Toyota Wheelchair Running by Thought

2009-07-01T06:43:00.000+05:30

Toyota developed a new and modern wheel chair which is a brain machine interface which can be steered just by thoughts. This don't need any special treatments or surgery. It can be done just by wearing a skullcap which is used in electroencephalograms (EEGs). The user can just think to move the wheel chair and turn left or right. It works as if we think. The thinking signals are received by a computer and the program converts the signal into action.

This will be a great foot print for the present world's growing population of old citizens. The company offers an extremely fast response by the machine. Rajesh Rao, an associate professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Washington said : "The kinds of signals you usually get are very, very noisy. What they're saying is that unlike previous attempts at controlling objects, this is done at a higher level. You're getting signals that are noisy and processing them."
