IPEC (Indian Pro-kart Endurance Championship) – 2018 - “Unchain the
barrier and conquer the World”
There is an excitement to explore new things by challenging yourself to discover your potential.
The story of the winning team of BVRITH who participated in IPEC (Indian Pro-kart Endurance
Championship) was something like that.
We all love riding go-karts, but never thought to ride a self made go-kart .It only became possible with the
strong determination of a group of 25 girls and with the constant effort of a group of mechanical faculty.
IPEC (Indian Pro-kart Endurance Championship) ,a national Level Go-kart Championship was organized
by BVRITN from 13 th to 16 th March’2018 to encourage the people with passion to design, build and raceoff
go-kart vehicles.
The journey was started with the rigorous training by the senior students of BVRITN.25 members were
divided into groups of 5 members in each group. The groups were allotted with different modules of design,
transmission, steering and braking under the leadership of a captain.
They built a prototype before starting the real manufacturing process. Once they had that idea, they started
assembling each part to make a real vehicle. Within two weeks, the kart was ready to ride!!
Finally the day arrived to exhibit their effort. The team from BVRITH was one of the four women-only
teams participated in this competition. There were three rounds: Virtual round, Dynamic round and
Endurance round.
Virtual round: This was the first round where around 31 teams across the country participated and at the
end of this round 23 teams were selected for the second round.
Dynamic round: This round was all about technical inspection of brake, weight, acceleration etc. At the
end of this round 22 teams were qualified for the final round and the team from BVRITH was the only team
out of four women-only teams which qualified for the final round.
Endurance round: This was the last round. In this round the participants had to make some laps within a
stipulated time. Here the test was to check participant’s skill, patience, time management and sportsman
spirit.
At the end of the event we received a special prize which was really unbelievable. Finally,We made it. So,
be passionate with your dream. You can do anything , everything.

Out Reachy
-Reach out World Wide
M
ost of the Engineering aspiring students aim to get seat in a good college and end up with higher
packaged job. But here the story of R.Pavani, final year IT student is bit different. This girl is
never satisfied with her knowledge. She wants to learn more, she wants to know more. This zeal to learn
helped her in fetching Internship in Outreachy. Outreachy is an intiative to provide internships across the
world who is highly interested to work in Free or Open Source Software.
How was she introduced to Outreachy?
Pavani is an open source enthusiast, passionate and aspirant coder who loves exploring new technologies.
So, first time when her brother introduced outreachy to her, she was very much excited and started
preparation to be a part of that international platform. Finally, she applied for summer’2018.
Most challenging part of the application process
As a part of the eligibility criteria, Outreachy Program expects aspiring interns to contribute for a relevant
open source project .The most challenging part is that the intern has to pick an organization and a project to
work on. She was inexperienced and totally confused which one to pick. She randomly selected a project
with her known technologies. She had clarity about the project and realized that she could do it. She
contacted her mentors about her project and started contributing towards it very sincerely.
Acceptance from Outreachy
The organization she was working with is Ceph. After putting all the effort, at certain point of time she
realized that if she doesn’t get accepted also, she will end up with a lot of learning. But finally her
application was accepted .She was very excited and happy to see her name as one of the interns for
Outreachy. Now the time to meet the people behind these projects.
The journey with Ceph
Ceph is an open source storage platform; it provides high performance, reliability, and scalability. It's a free
distributed storage system that provides an interface for object, block, and file-level storage and can operate
without a single point of failure. The mentor was very friendly, helpful and was guiding her not only to
complete the project but also to forgo her wrong coding practices which helped her to become stronger
technically.
The Project
The project was basically about creation of a CephFS Shell and CLI Tool. The Ceph file system (CephFS)
provides for kernel driver and FUSE client access. In testing and trivial system administration, the FUSE
interface is commonly used but can be cumbersome. The project aims to provide a shell and CLI tool
interface to CephFS using the existing libcephfs client library and python bindings. The shell should allow
“Do not wait to strike till the iron is hot; but make it hot by striking” - William B. Spragu
- 5 -

for a series of commands (like mkdir) against the file system. It can also be extended in such a way that the
project should adapt existing tests to use the new toolset. As a whole, the project was to create a user
interface shell to access ceph file system. The Shell looks like this by the end of first two weeks
The Learnings
She was been coding in python for about 2 years. But During this journey, she had new experience with
python modules while creating a shell. Not only technical knowledge, unknowingly she was getting
transformed from a student to a professional who knows to balance personal and professional life.This
international exposure helped her to become more confident and motivated to try the new things.
So,for all the engineering aspiring students, don’t restrict your aim to get a highly paid job. Transform your
aim into dream. A dream to learn new things, a dream to do the things out of box which excites you which
discovers you.

E-DRESSING
Online shopping has certainly replaced the
traditional way of shopping. When we choose
online shopping, we get the benefit of credibility.
Today, almost every online store offers cash on
delivery, free shipping and discounted prices.
They have also benefited those people who
always complain of shortage of time. This is the
reason, majority of the people have turned to
online shopping. Here, they enjoy easy access to
an attractive price range, prompt customer
support, and free home delivery. There is no
doubt that these are some of the attractive
features that catches the attention of the
consumers. The inability of users to foresee how
particular wardrobe items will be apt for them
when shopping online has always been a
significant weakness. Our motive here is to
increase the time efficiency and improve the
accessibility of apparels try on by creating a
virtual dressing room environment.
Real-time tracing of the user posture.
Realistic virtual clothing.
Clothing/Accessories alignment.
Size estimation.
The image of the user is captured by the camera
and given as an input. By using the face detection
and body detection techniques, the video is
scanned for the presence of human faces. Body
tracking and perimeter analysis are done and
product images are then masked. Now the
masked image is superimposed and the user can
see the images of the dresses on self.
This idea was presented in ―Women only
Hackathon‖ organized by Flipkart and received
1 st prize at BVRITH and also received 3 rd
prize in National level by representing Telangana
region.
The solution aims to create an augmented reality
dressing room. To implement E-Dressing, the
major tasks involve –

Sakhi #CravingToCradle
In an article published by Times of India, it was
stated that women shop 2.2 times more than men.
With out them for the hackathon being e-
commerce for women, the first thing we did was
to go through the flipkart's website and look for
issues that we could solve problems that
concerned women. We observed that though
flipkart had a women's section, they didn't cater
the needs of an expecting mother and that's how
our journey of the hackathon started!
Our proposal was targeted to all those women in
their maternity stages who hardly find any time to
shop offline. Moreover, when a new generation is
being nurtured during nine months of pregnancy,
more prenatal care is required. We wanted to use
Flipkart as a platform to cater their every small
and big needs all throughout their journey.We
created an add-on "Sakhi" to the flipkart's
website.
Sakhi is an online recommendation system that
that creates a personalised store for expecting
mothers by suggesting products across a wide
range of categories like apparels, books, music,
nutrition and cosmetics which can be tailored and
offered at their doorstep. During the user's first
login, Sakhi takes all the information like the
height, waist size, bust size and the month of
pregnancy to keep a track of the user and
customizes her store. This also helps
recommending products at later point of time.
We built a machine learning model for the
recommendation system using collaborative
filtering. For the product data, we scraped various
websites like firstcry and myntra and the entire
website was built and integrated using python
flask framework.
The entire hackathon journey was a great joyful
and learning experience. We were exposed to
many new things as we were building everything
from the scratch. The real joy was then, when our
idea bagged 2 nd prize at the end of the Hackathon.

OMNI-FILTER
When you are shopping for a particular person
and specially, when you are switching to a
different category, the task of re-applying filters
is quite a tedious task.To exemplify the current
scenario, consider a customer who is shopping
for herself. The customer first searches for skirts
by setting a filter for her size. She might then
look of pants in her size by re-applying the filter
to her size. She might look for shoes to go with
the outfit by again filtering her shoe size. Isn’t
there a way to do all of the filtering at once?
So, our idea Omni-Filter helps the
customers to save their sizes along with the ones
they wish to shop for (eg. family). Later
whenever they wish to shop, they will only have
to select the person to shop for which will
automatically apply the filters on every category
they choose henceforth (foot size, top size,
bottom size).
This will also make shopping for others easier.
Absolutely hassle free.
Through this idea our main aim was to increase
the customer satisfaction by automating filtering
process to cater particular individual sizes
thereby reducing search downtime.
Overall, the journey was super exciting and
stressful, as we had to understand the problem
very clearly and the complete prototype had to be
built within very small span of time.
The Hackathon was not like any conventional
Hackathon, here the feeling was like doing real
contribution to the society.
Finally,our idea received 3 rd Prize among all the
groups.
We used HTML, Bootstrap, JavaScript to
implement this idea and MySQL for Database
connection.
The main challenging part of the implementation
was Optimization i.e. accessing the size-charts of
all the brands and comparing the body
measurements saved by the users optimally.

ICan
It is well known that India is the second most
populous country in the world with the
population of over 132 crores and over 20 lakh of
them are living with speech disability in one form
or the other. In an ideal world, every person
would know Sign Language but in this one, it is
next to impossible. Most Sign speakers depend
on pen and paper or phone keypad to
communicate with Non-Sign speakers. But, it is
such a tedious job to write or type out the most
frequent messages.
The team of ―Eleventh Hour Creations‖ has
developed a solution to simplify this mundane
task. From instant text to speech to saving
common phrases, the app ―I Can‖ is built to make
daily communication with Non-Sign speakers
swift and facile. The highlight of the app has to
be the ―Gesture‖ feature that allows users to save
text along with a touch gesture shortcut which
convert text-to-speech in a jiffy.
The journey of building this app was really
memorable. It was started with idea selection and
then gradually adding the features to it made the
journey with ups and downs. Finally, our app was
selected among best 3 apps that got opportunity
for showcasing in front of Microsoft Leadership
Team. The real success was then, when it reached
544 installs and was downloaded by people of 7
countries other than India.
The free app is available on Google Play as a
tool. To download or to know more about the app

Time Saver Trolly
Innovation no more happens on demand.
Innovation has become the integral part of
business, product, process, service and lifestyle.
It is believed that innovation is the change that
unlocks new value. Innovation can only be
nourished by creating environments for ideas to
be developed.
The idea ―Time Saver Trolley‖ is an initiative to
help the customers who spend lot of time in long
queues near billing section of a retail store.
Through this implementation we can help the
customers to avoid unnecessary time waste by
allowing them to add the items to the trolly,
where all the item information is available with
their particular price. Then the customer can pay
the bill for the same.
The idea was kind of self-service for the
customers who want to save their time by adding
their items to the trolly and can generate the bill
for the same.
This idea was presented on the platform
of ―Student Innovator Award 2018‖ organized by
ICT Academy in collaboration with State
Government and Industry to foster innovation
midst the younger generation.
The experience was really unique where
all the projects were invited from the branches of
Computer Science &Information Technology,
Civil & Architecture, Mechanical & Automobile
and Electrical & Electronics. UG and PG
Engineering students from various branches
across Telangana participated in the event. An
eminent jury of Industry experts judged the
projects based on the below mentioned criteria:
‣ Quality of innovation
‣ Financial feasibility
‣ Potential and/or actual market impact
Selection Process was done in two levels:
LEVEL 1: Initial scrutiny based on the project
abstract
LEVEL2: The Top 5 Shortlisted Projects from
each stream presented their idea.
After putting lot much effort finally we received
the first Prize for ―ICT Academy Student
Innovator Award 2018‖, and our team also
received a cash prize of Rs15000/-.

Remote Intervention and Control
of Laser Based Procedures
Our project ―Remote Intervention and Control of
Laser Based Procedures‖ is aimed to decrease the
prevalence of eye diseases in rural areas by
enhancing PRP procedure in Tele-Opthamology
with remote control procedure.
The main idea was born with intention of helping
those people who really needs such help but not
having enough opportunity or exposure to it.
―Engineering the Eye‖ is an initiative to
bring all members of the healthcare community
together under one roof, providing a unique
opportunity for innovators to contribute towards
healthcare.
Basically the method used here is Pan Retinal
Photocoagulation which stops vessels on the
retina from leaking. During this procedure, a
special laser is used to make tiny burns that seals
the retina and stops blood vessels from growing
and leaking. Cameras are setup in front of the
patient to know the condition of the eye and a
live video of different scenes are telecasted to
doctor through OBS Software. According to
condition of the patient, doctor will spot the
places which are to be treated with laser. A G-
code will be automatically generated and this
code will run the system to move the laser in X,Y
& Z directions. A Laser is fixed on the camera
and an Aurdino ATmega microcontroller is used
to move the camera in different directions. The
whole information from the patient is stored in a
packet and it is delivered to the doctor only if
complete information is retrieved from the
system so that even if there is an internet
problem, doctor can continue the treatment as he
gets complete information at once.
Doctor will be keeping a reference point so that if
the patient moves away or towards the reference
point the equipment before the system is
automatically stopped. In this way doctor can
remotely control the laser operation of a patient
from anywhere in the world.

Text to Braille Converter
The idea of the project was to develop a new
methodology using a Braille system which helps
blind people to read text messages.
We were highly motivated to take
up this idea as we wanted to contribute towards
the people who are special in the society .The
people who cannot see the beauty of world but
they have potential to do wonders with a small
help.
To implement this, we are used Bluetooth modem
to receive messages and the message could be
read by blind people easily just by feeling the
vibration of vibrators.
We presented this paper in International
Conference on Innovative Technologies in
Computer Science and Engineering (ICITCSE-
2018) at St. Peter’s Engineering College and
received ―Best Paper Award‖
The Paper was also published in International

Artificial Embryos
Why It Matters Artificial embryos will make it
easier for researchers to study the mysterious
beginnings of a human life, but they’re stoking
new bioethical debates.
Key Players: University of Cambridge;
University of Michigan; Rockefeller University.
Artificial embryos, however, pose ethical
questions. What if they turn out to be
indistinguishable from real embryos? How long
can they be grown in the lab before they feel
pain? We need to address those questions before
the science races ahead much further, bioethicists
says.
Reference: Breakthrough technologies of 2018
Availability:
Now the researchers placed the cells carefully in
a three-dimensional scaffold and watched,
fascinated, as they started communicating and
lining up into the distinctive bullet shape of a
mouse embryo several days old. Stem cells are
magical in their powerful potential of what they
can do. We did not realize they could selforganize
so beautifully or perfectly. Soon we
could have mammals born without an egg at all.
The next step, is to make an artificial embryo out
of human stem cells, work that’s being pursued at
the University of Michigan and Rockefeller
University. Synthetic human embryos would be a
boon to scientists, letting them tease apart events
early in development. And since such embryos
start with easily manipulated stem cells, labs will
be able to employ a full range of tools, such as
gene editing, to investigate them as they grow.
FUCHSIA
Annem Yasaswini,
3 rd Yr, IT.
Wondered what it is? Well, let me break the little
suspense... It is a new mobile Operating System
developed by Google. Google's Fuchsia OS is
designed to run on embedded devices, smart
phones and PCs.
So what exactly Google Fuchsia Os is for?
Google is developing this new mobile Os to
merge Android +Chrome
Fuchsia is a mixed colour of Pink + Purple and it
is named right after a flower called Fuchsia.
“ To understand everything is to forgive everything.” - Buddha
14

There have been speculations that Fuchsia OS
will replace Android , whereas some reports hint
that it will unite Android and Chrome OS. But, at
the moment, it is unclear as to what Fuchsia OS is
intended for.
Where And How Is It Developed?
Unlike Android, Fuchsia isn’t built on Linux, but
rather on Google’s own Magenta kernel, and
utilizes their in-house Flutter SDK as
well.JavaScriptCore (or JSC) is a way that is
typically used for sharing code between your web
and native applications. Firstly,JSC is part of
WebKit, which forms the basis of Apple’s Safari
browser, and is distinctly an Apple product.Up to
this point, the Fuchsia Team had been using their
own internal port of JSC, with no intention of
making it publicly available for developers.
Secondly, Web Runner targeted at making the
web integral to Fuchsia. Currently in Fuchsia all
web-related tasks are handled byWebKits's.Web
View but Chrome support is coming. Already,
there’s a version of Web Runner in
Chromium that confirms it will ―run web
applications on Fuchsia.‖
How Will Fuchsia Affect Developers?
Fuchsia isn’t at a point where developers can
practically create full applications yet. But when
it gets there, Google doesn’t intend for the work
it has put into Android to be totally abandoned.
Fuchsia apps can be written in a variety of
popular programming languages using the new
Flutter software development kit.
Flutter allows apps to be written with maximum
compatibility between Fucshia, Android, and
iOS. Not only does that mean that apps can be
written on all three platforms with a minimum of
investment, it makes porting existing apps to
Fuchsia and supporting all three platforms easy.
How Does Fuchsia Differ From Android?
Google released a hand's on look for fuchsia os,
rather than having app icons on the home screen
there are cards for every thing and here comes
The most interesting part of Fuchsia is its
multitasking capabilities.Now a days in Android
7.0 Nougat version is running on split screen
facility for some supporting apps but Fuchsia
takes it a step further with the ability to run more
than two apps at a time just by dragging any
number of apps from home screen cards.
All-in-all, Google is definitely taking the web
seriously, and this is an area that is seeing
constant development in both the Fuchsia and
Chromium repos. Needless to say I’ll be keeping
an eye on it going forward.

Digitizing Farm Records for Food
Security
FARMIS is an innovation which is basically
implemented by SOKOPEPE for improving the
lives of the small scale farmers in Kenya which
gives power to engage with the financial
institutions and provides them the technical
information for them to increase the income and
also it is used for their food options. The farmers
in FARMIS were given up to USD162, 500
which served 25,000 farmers
Technologies used:-
FARMIS are using both analogue and digital to
manage the records that consists of
PRODUCTION INFORMATION AGENTS.
Through this PIA the farm book collects the
information and data about the production and
mobile phones are used to collect the data that
contains the profiles which contains information
online.
FARMIS seeks to address a related challenge
based on the lack of reliable data; to drive
decision-making and inform households,
governments and private institutions on the most
appropriate interventions that would be necessary
to improve crop production of the rural smallscale
farmer as well as develop the most
appropriate solutions to meet the peripheral
challenges that hamper food production. So far
7,235 farmers in Meru County are keeping
records of their farm enterprises using the Farm
Book. Some of them are already
changing the type of enterprise in their farms
through informed decision.

Breaking through: Artificial intelligence is
breaking into the healthcare industry by assisting
doctors. It Matters; there is a great amount of
research and drugs related to cancer. In order to
prevent this,‖ Microsoft has developed a
―BLOOMBERG TECHNOLOGY‖ using AI to
help doctors to find the right treatments for
cancer.
It works on; Microsoft is working on a project to
develop a machine called‖ HANOVER‖. Its goal
is to memorize all the papers necessary to cancer
and help predict which will be the most effective
for patient. Using Artificial Intelligence to try
and monitor multiple high-risk patients. Like
leukemia, lung cancer, melanoma. One project
that is being worked on at the moment is
fighting‖ MYELOID LEUKEMIA‖ a fatal cancer
where the treatment has not improved in decades.

By using Artificial Intelligence doctors trained in
identifying skin cancer. A recent study by
surgeons at the children’s national medical
centre Washington successfully demonstrated
surgery with an autonomous robot.IBM has
created its own artificial computer ,the IBM

are taught to complete the tasks. GANs basically
solve a problem by training two separate neural
networks,with competitve goals, which are the
simplified mathematical models of the human
brain that underpin most modern machine
learning. The two networks, a generative and a
discriminator or adversarial network will compete
with each other in the digital cat and mouse
game. Both networks are trained on the same data
set. The generator, is tasked with creating
variations on images it’s already seen. The
discriminator, is asked to identify whether the
example it sees is like the images it has been
trained on or a fake produced by the generator.
For example, when both networks are trained on
the same data set of pedestrians, generator creates
a variation, perhaps a picture of a pedestrian with

an extra arm and the discriminator will decide
whether that three-armed person is likely to be
real. The concept is to train these networks
competitively, so that after some time, neither
network can make further progress against the
other. Or the generator becomes so effective that
the adversarial network cannot distinguish
between real and synthetic solutions, even with
unlimited time and substantial resources.
The results aren’t always perfect but because the
outputs are often startlingly realistic, some
believe, the GANs are beginning to understand
the underlying structure of the world. And that
means AI may gain a sense of imagination, and
independently make sense of what it sees in the
world.

World's first sleep robot to
improve your sleep
Have you ever suffered from sleep deprivation
alsoknown as insomnia ? Tossing and turning
around in your bed unable to will yourself to
sleep can ruin your whole next day. Fortunately,
you can reach out to the world's first Somnox
sleep improvement robot. Somnox sleep robot is
a non-invasive ultimate sleep companion that
improves sleep by soothing your body and
mind,reducing stress and anxiety so you
can fall asleep faster, sleep longer and wake up
feeling refreshed. It does so by providing a range
of effective and proven features: breathing
regulation, sounds and movements.
First, it imitates breathing by raising and
lowering its surface. By matching your own
breathing you will be able to calm down your
mind and body. Through effective cognitive and
breathing techniques, it does not only accelerate
your process of falling asleep but also helps you
to reach deeper levels of relaxation.
Second, the robot can play a variety of audio
cues. You can choose from an already existing
library of sounds that includes sounds of a heart
beat , lullabies, meditation, audio tracks and
many more.You can even upload tracks of your
own. The best part is that robot will lower the
volume of sound in response to you falling
asleep.

Hands Free Hectare Robotic
Farming
In the village of Edgmond in the U.K., the barley
have been harvested from the world’s first
robotically tended farm. Everything from start to
finish including sowing, fertilizing, collecting
samples and harvesting. Experimental farm run
by researchers from Harper Adams University,
United Kingdom.
The team behind the project thinks that robotic
technology could improve yields in agriculture,
which is necessary if the world's growing
population is to be fed in coming years. The
researchers tackled this problem by using
commercially available agriculture machines and
open-source software that is used to guide
hobbyists’ drones.
The researchers tried with drone autopilots that
are relatively cheap. They purchased several
small-size agricultural machines, including a
tractor and a combine, a machine for harvesting
grain crops. They then fitted the machines with
actuators, electronics and robotic technology that
would allow them to control the machines
without the presence of a human operator.
"The vehicles navigate entirely based on the GPS,
and they are just essentially driving towards
targets that we predetermined," The scientists
said that the robotic technology could enable
future farmers to more precisely distribute
fertilizers and herbicides, but could also lead to
improvements in soil quality. Currently, to
achieve all the required tasks in a reasonable
amount of time, farmers rely on very large and
heavy machines. In the future, they could use
flocks of smaller robotic tractors and harvesters,
the researchers said.
At the moment, the machines used in agriculture
are large, they operate quickly, they cover large
areas of ground quickly, but with it comes
inaccuracy. Small machines working with smaller
working widths would provide a means to bring
the resolution down. Instead of a 100-foot
sprayer, you would have a 20-foot sprayer, and
that’s just the beginning of making things
smaller.

or exceeds the pre-selectedbloodcontent limit the
wrist band vibrates, lights up and warns the person to

Robotic Hand for Handicapped
Robotic hand, it is an advanced technology which
is useful for the person who doesn’t have hand’s
such as handicapped. By connecting the
electrodes from the artificial hand directly to
motor cortexes which is present in brain and
sensory. If any other person touch the robotic
hand they can feel the sensation and they can
move the hand how they think,there is no remote
to control the hand,the only remote is BRAIN.
There are no damages caused by it till now,it
need an operation to insert electrodes and
connected to the brain.The fource which is
applied by the robotic hand is as same as the
original hand.
It is invented at JOHNS HOPKINS
UNIVERSITY and it is tested by US military’s
Defence Advanced Research Projects
Agency(DARPA).They tested it by touching the
person having robotic hand, by closing the
persons eyes and asking the person which finger
was pressed and it was succesful. So many are
benifited by this robotic hand and this is so useful
invention for handicapped.

FEG Technology
Do you have any idea about the energy
available in higher altitude winds?
Many have been proposed for capturing the
energy available in high altitude winds. After
much study on the various methods for capturing
high altitude winds, finally settle down ―FLYING
ELECTRIC GENERATOR or ROTOR CRAFT‖
for addressing the world’s major energy. FEG
technology is called as flying wind mills .It is a
proposed renewable energy project over rural or
low populated areas to produce around
12,000MW of electricity with only 600 well
clustered rot0craft kites that use only autogiro
physics to generate far more kinetic energy than a
nuclear plant can do.
Disadvantages of fuel fossils:
The overuse of fossil fuels and the over
abundance of radioactive waste from nuclear
energy, plants is taking a path of destruction.
To avoid all these we can use:
1) ―SKY WIND POWER‖, is more expensive
and dangerous in the long run.
2) FEG technology is just cheaper, cleaner and
provide more energy than those environmentally
unhealthy methods of the past, making it a
desirable alternative.
The secret of this functionality is ―TETHER
TECHNOLOGY‖, that reaches 15,000 feet in the
air, but creating restricted air space for planes and
other aircrafts . This tether can hold flying wind
mills in place; and with energy cable technology
getting ever lighter and stronger.
The tether being oriented at an angle to the local
vertical between the object and a planet with
magnetic field, when tether cuts the magnetic
field of planet it generates a current and electrical
energy.

This is not the first experimental biogenic solar

have more powerful current, they said. Also it
works in dim light as well as in bright light.
Solar cells are the building blocks of solar panels.
Any material that can excited or energized
sufficiently by light to release electrons can be
used in solar cells to generate electricity. In
biogenic solar cells, the material "excited" by
light is biological-in this case, the dye-compared
to conventional, or inorganic, solar cells which
use crystalline silicon to generate electrons. the
anode of the solar cell, comprised of biogenic
material made of lycopene-producing bacteria
that are coated with nano particles.
Their solution is in expensive and ultimately
"could perform at comparable efficiencies as
conventional photovoltaic. Even if these cells
don't reach the same strength as conventional
cells, the researchers believe they could play an
important role in certain low-light setting such as
mines or in deep sea exploration. Biogenic solar
cells will be a useful complement to inorganic
solar cell technology Even in its infancy, the
technology has already throwing up some
promising applications. Exploring low- light
environments such as mines requires the use of
sensors that could be powered with biogenic cells

ARC ATTACK
On hearing to the announcement made by the

from the crowd in the auditorium are cut off by a
sizzling buzz. In the center of the stage, awash in
blue and purple light, a man steps forward.
Helmeted like a knight, with an electric guitar,
the man started playing the first few crackling
chords of his set. As he does so, forked tongues
of lightning reach out from two towers flanking
the stage and strike him. But he doesn’t even
flinch.
This typical performance for the Austin, Texasbased
group called ARC ATTACK. The guitar
player’s dancing fingers might control the music,
but the notes themselves come from the bolts let
loose by the twin towers.
Joe DiPrima, one of the founding members of
Arc Attack says that, ―The electrical arcs are
vibrating the air and creating sound waves.‖
by oscillating at their natural resonant frequency.
More specifically, the circuits in the devices
contain an inductor—an electrical component that
resists changes in the electrical current—and a
capacitor—an electrical component that stores
energy. While that energy output is still far below
100 million Volts contained in even the weakest
bolts of lightning, it is enough to require expert
operators. ―Just like pyrotechnics, the sparks are
dangerous,‖ says DiPrima. ―The coils are just as
safe as the people operating them.‖Because,
safety is a priority for Arc Attack.

badly adapted to spending time underwater, need
tools to do that. Unfortunately, most of the tools
humans use are hard, while many ocean creatures
are soft and delicate. A team from Harvard
University's Wyss institute (which studies "bioinspired
engineering) hopes to solve that problem
with a new, soft, folding "Pokeball"-like device,
described in a paper on july18) in the journal
Science Robotics. The device, the result of a
collaboration between engineers, designers and
“What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.”

marine biologists, looks like a soft, plastic, fourfingered
claw when it's open. Then, a single
motor drives it to fold along all of its joints,
forming a hollow, 12-sided container around
whatever it's trying to snatch, the researchers
wrote.
The
researchers tested the device, which they call a
"Rotary Actuated Dodecahedron" (RAD), first at
Connecticut's Mystic Aquarium and then in the
open ocean near Monterey, California. Mounted
to a uncrewed underwater vehicle and controlled
remotely via joystick, it successfully captured
squid and jellyfish unharmed, they reported.

Amazing Technology Used in Bill
Gates’s house
The house was designed by James Cutler
Architects and Bohlin Cywinksi Jackson, in a
Pacific Lodge style. Features:
Much of the Bill Gates house is built
underground into the hill, so the house looks
smaller than it actually is. The house occupies
50,000 square feet on 5.15 acre land.The 66,000-
square-foot (6,100 m2) house features 7
bedrooms, 18 baths, a 20 person home cinema
and a 60-foot (18 m) swimming pool with an
underwater Sound System and a fossil motif
floor. Swimmers can dive under a glass wall and
emerge outdoors by a terrace.Garage space and
outbuildings occupy an additional 16,000 square
feet. The house’s garages can accommodate 23
cars.
The house features home automation with a
central computer. Visitors to the residence are
surveyed and given a microchip at entrance. This
small chip sends signals throughout the house,
and a given room’s temperature
humidity, lighting and music when a guest enters
a room will change according to preset users
preference.With a net worth of US$ 90 billion he
can easily. Some of the interior passage doors
weigh over 800 lbs, but are balanced for easy
use. The roofing is stainless steel. Hidden
cameras are everywhere, including the interior
stone walls. Gates insisted on saving a 40 year
old maple adjacent to the driveway. The tree is
monitored electronically 24 hours per day via
computer. If it seems dry, it gets just the right
amount of water automatically delivered.
