Preservation of the animals
Cleaner of the Seawater
This Robot Eats Concrete Buildings
Usually, the demolition of a building requires big, clunky machines making ear-splitting noises and throwing nasty dust into the air that you, your family, and your friends breathe in. Well, that is until ERO arrives on the skyscraper-wrecking scene (right now, this awesome gadget is just a concept). The hydro-demolition robot will dismantle concrete and then cleanly package any water and rebar for a later use. The coolest part, according to inventor Omer Haciomeroglu, a student at Sweden’s Umea Institute of Design, is that once “ERO starts working, it will literally erase the building.
This Bicycle Breathes
If ever you find yourself in a smog-choked city like Beijing—on certain days, the air is so dirty you can't see across the street—you might want to invest in a breathing bicycle to help you get around. Invented by artist Matt Hope as a way to popularize healthy transportation options in a city with omnipresent air pollution, the breathing bicycle has a self-sustaining air-cleaning system. As you peddle, you power a generator that first pulls air into a filter, and then into a mask, delivering you clean, breathable oxygen.

The backpack photo-voltaic
Developed
by VoltaicSystems, this bag can produce about 4 watts of solar power to charge
any device that takes in it thanks to its 11 adapters that allow it. This
backpack has batteries that store energy and use it only when there is no
sunlight and is made from recycled plastic bottles, which makes photo-voltaic
backpack lightweight and waterproof.
Greenerator
It is a
system that combines the generation of wind and solar energy to power homes
with clean energy. Jonathan Globerson, the inventor of Greenerator, says its
product, which is in its
initial stage, could power a computer or any other
appliance in the home, reducing the external electricity consumption by almost
6%.
Kranthout
New
material, made of wood and recycled paper, was developed for the company by Mieke
Meijer Vij5 called Kranthout, which translates in Dutch wooden-newspaper.
How does
Kranthout work? When rolled up newspaper planks that mimic the grain containing
the original wooden form. This product can be used as real wood as painting and
sanding supports.
