Garbatrage: turning e-waste into prototyping gold

September 27, 2023 by Geordie Torr

A Cornell University robotics researcher and builder has introduced a new framework for prototype builders that’s centred around repurposing underused devices. The inspiration for the concept came to Ilan Mandel, a doctoral student in the field of information science, based at Cornell Tech, when he considered the fact that a new, off-the-shelf hoverboard cost less than the … [Read more...] about Garbatrage: turning e-waste into prototyping gold

Toyota reveals British-built, hydrogen-fuelled Hilux prototype

September 12, 2023 by Geordie Torr

Toyota has unveiled a prototype hydrogen fuel cell-powered version of its Hilux light commercial vehicle. The new vehicle’s powertrain uses core elements from the Toyota Mirai hydrogen fuel cell electric saloon – technology that been in commercial production for almost ten years. When driven, the fuel cell produces no exhaust emissions other than pure water. The vehicle … [Read more...] about Toyota reveals British-built, hydrogen-fuelled Hilux prototype

Reimagining next-generation drivetrain technologies for offshore wind turbines

September 7, 2023 by Geordie Torr

A new study carried out by researchers at the US Department of Energy’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) and General Electric Research has used conceptual designs of offshore wind turbines to assess how their drivetrains could change in the near future to produce more power while lowering costs. ‘Offshore wind turbine manufacturers often adopt conservative choices … [Read more...] about Reimagining next-generation drivetrain technologies for offshore wind turbines
