Washing Machine -Bicycle-Powered
It took four years to built the pedal-powered washing machine primarily from bicycle parts and empty barrels.This project was supervised and built by MIT students and faculty. Thanks to MIT students for thier active participation in this project.
The washing machine comprises of an outer housing made of a standard oil drum cut apart and welded to make a shorter barrel. The inner drum is made from a set of identical plastic pieces bolted together. The system is then connected to an old bicycle without wheels. The chain is connected to a gear mechanism harnessed from an old geared mountain bike. The highest gear is used for the spin cycle and the lowest one for the wash cycle. Cool idea and perhaps a cool machine.
The device to some extent is incomplete, as some water leaked around the edges of the barrel during the test. Anyway the they have successfully implemented thier idea. With some ammendments the product will be ready in the market very soon.

The giant and odd shape of it casts an even more odd shadow, it'd be enough to spook any kid wandering through the house at night. One day a automobile drives past with their headlights casting shadows off of the lamp and it'd end up looking like a sea monster back for a midnight snack. The lamp comes in black, white, green and red.You can purchase it for the very affordable £562.58 or about $774, that’s just pocket change.

The Anybot telepresence robot has a top speed of 6 MPH, a built in laser pointer (maybe we see a gun in later versions), 2 cameras and full duplex audio. Isn't that a cool gadget?? Guys like us may use this idea in the final year project, think upon??...
A week before our university had a open house i-e project display and our seniors had a project not similar to the above mentioned but quite closer to.The robot was designed to calculate the distance of any object coming in his way with the help of two cameras and then applying disparity calculation algorithm. It is woth mentioning here that it was just MATLAB and MICROCONTROLLER programming and just a mechanical assembly....
