Solar Power Bicycle
Bicycles are the cheapest, healthiest and eco-friendly but poses problem in climbing slopes. Motor cycles are not affordable to poor people and with the rising fuel prices and pollutions; it does not seem a suitable option. Electric - Bicycle is eco- friendly and comfortable but costly. It is infeasible as there is no enough provision for charging in rural India. Hence a bicycle which can be peddled as well as run on solar powered battery seems to be suitable option to solve the issues discussed above.

Pneumatic Bumper And Braking System
A pneumatic system is a system that uses compressed air to transmit and control energy. Our project “Pneumatic bumper and breaking system” is used to protect the vehicle from accident. This project consists of ultrasonic sensor, Control Unit, Pneumatic bumper system. The ultrasonic sensor is used to detect the obstacle. If there is any obstacle closer to the vehicle, the control signal is given to the bumper activation system. Vehicle speed is sensed by the proximity sensor and signal is given to the control unit and pneumatic bumper activation system.

Intellicopter – A Rescue Drone
Heavy rains and natural disasters cause accident prone areas and high-altitude regions to be highly difficult for humans to explore, and during a rescue mission in these regions, stranded humans and animals may be difficult to locate due to poor accessibility. The capability of Intellicopter to gain high attitude and capture information about any region, makes it highly viable for Rescue Missions.

LifeLine
In this Project, we have developed a mobile application called “Lifeline ERV” in Android and iOS platforms. This app will be used to locate and dispatch the closest emergency response vehicle in case of an emergency, to the respective location. The purpose of the application is to make the journey of the ambulance faster and smoother from the spot of accident to the nearest hospital. LifelineERV is an application in which the patient/helper can book the ambulance and track its live location.

Wind Injection Turbine
A new concept in wind power harnessing is described which significantly outperforms traditional wind turbines of the same diameter and aerodynamic characteristics under the same wind conditions and it delivers significantly higher output, at reduced cost. The second innovative feature of the project is that it captures wind flow through an omnidirectional intake and thereby there is no need for a passive or active yaw control. Third, it accelerates the flow within a shrouded Venturi section which is subsequently expanded and released into the ambient environment through a diffuser.
