Anand Agarawala presents BumpTop, a fresh user interface that takes the usual desktop metaphor to a glorious, 3D extreme. In this physics-driven universe, important files finally get the weight they deserve via an oddly satisfying resizing feature, and the drudgery of file organization becomes a freewheeling playground full of crumpled documents and clipping-covered "walls." Worried your laptop's desktop will descend into the same disorder as its coffee-mug-strewn real-life equivalent? Fear not: BumpTop has a snappy solution for that messy problem, too.

Solar Tower
Solar Towers operate on the simple principle hot air rises; the movement of rising hot air is utilized to drive turbines to generate electricity.
The solar tower can produce electrical generation in large-scale quantities and be a competitive alternative to coal and gas based electricity generation. Current development and design of the World’s first commercial Solar Tower in Australian will have the capacity to produce up to 200MW of electricity from a single unit. A power station of this size produces enough power for an estimated 200,000 households. (more)

Maglev Train
Magnetic levitation transport, or maglev, is a form of transportation that suspends, guides and propels vehicles (especially trains) using electromagnetic force. This method can be faster than wheeled mass transit systems, potentially reaching velocities comparable to turboprop and jet aircraft (900 km/h, 600 mph). The highest recorded speed of a maglev train is 581 km/h (361 mph), achieved in Japan in 2003, which is 4 mph more than the conventional TGV speed record.- Wikipedia

Electronic Waste or e-waste in India
The world is consuming more and more electronic products every year. This has caused a dangerous explosion in electronic scrap (e-waste) containing toxic chemicals and heavy metals that cannot be disposed of or recycled safely. But this problem can be avoided. We are pressing leading electronic companies to change; to turn back the toxic tide of e-waste.
Every year, hundreds of thousands of old computers and mobile phones are dumped in landfills or burned in smelters. Thousands more are exported, often illegally, from the Europe, US, Japan and other industrialised countries, to Asia. There, workers at scrap yards, some of whom are children, are exposed to a cocktail of toxic chemicals and poisons.

ASSIST: A Shrewd Sketch Interpretation and Simulation Tool-
Unfortunately, current computer-based design tools for mechanical engineers are not tailored to early stages of design. Most designers use pencil and paper at first, and input their design into CAD systems only after it is nearly complete. The tradeoff between the ease of drawing and the precision of a CAD tool is too great for engineers who are just sketching out rough designs.
ASSIST allows a user to sketch simple mechanical systems and see simulations of his/her drawings in a two-dimensional kinematic simulator.

Energy Innovation-
The Stirling-engine Sunflower™ concept is somewhat radical, because it is not based on photovoltaic (PV) cells and has moving parts. We believed that we could make this design much more cost-effectively than a PV-based system because it is simpler, more suitable for mass production, and uses significantly less energy in the actual production processes of the product.

He's a gutsy poet who constantly pushes the limits of the genre: striving to reinvent the form, and find new contexts to make poetry relevant. Rives originally trained as an engineer, and he writes pop-up books for children on the side.
