Revolutionary Automatic Self-charging Smart Watch: Sequent SuperCharger2 looks for growdsourcing
Sequent SuperCharger2 is a fundamental re-engineering of award-winning first and only smart watch with an Automatic Self-Charging battery system, providing world record power autonomy. Smartwatch is pledged $377,898 of $49,433 goal for now.
This new award winning Swiss engineering smartwatch has some groundbreaking features: the more you move, the more you transform 100% clean kinetic energy into electrical power to support the high precision built-in sensors, that track all your activities.
Skeleton Technologies' Ultracapacitors to Power Škoda Trams in Germany
Skeleton Technologies, the European market leader for ultracapacitors and energy storage systems for transportation and grid applications, will supply ultracapacitor systems to Škoda Electric, a traction equipment manufacturer, for 114 trams to be delivered by Škoda Transportation to Mannheim, Heidelberg, and Ludwigshafen in Germany.
The ultracapacitor system recuperates the braking energy of the trams and uses it for re-acceleration, saving energy and decreasing costs. Ultracapacitors are ideal for this application due to their high efficiency, reliability, and ability to recharge in seconds.
TalTech is establishing co-operation with the US on developing self-driving cars
Tallinn University of Technology is signing a co-operation agreement with Florida Polytechnic University on the 10th of April, to join forces for future development and increasing security of automated vehicles (AV).
Self-driving cars and other autonomous systems are one of the most paradigm-changing technological developments in today's world. Transportation is affecting every single person and has a large impact on economic development. There will be huge challenges to solve and international cooperation is crucial here.
Out of over 13,000 innovators from over 90 countries, Skeleton Technologies secures a place in the 2019 Global Cleantech 100
Skeleton Technologies, the European market leader in ultracapacitors and energy storage systems for transportation and grid applications, was named by Cleantech Group in the prestigious 2019 Global Cleantech 100.
The innovative solution developed by an Estonia start-up won the first prize in the world’s largest exhibition of sheet metal working industry
Fractory.co, founded in Tartu one year ago, has won the title of the best start-up in EuroBLECH, the world's largest exhibition of the metal working technology held in Germany, with a solution that radically accelerates the production and ordering process of metal companies.
Latvian company SPH Engineering helps locate aircraft buried under Greenland ice with the help of GPR and drone integrated system
An expedition was carried out in Greenland this past July that, using technology developed by Latvian company SPH Engineering – a ground penetrating radar (GPR) and drone integrated system – managed to find a World War II aircraft abandoned “in the middle of nowhere”, buried under approximately 100 meters of ice.
On July 15, 1942 eight planes – six P-38 fighter planes and two B-17 bombers – left a U.S. Army base in Greenland. Due to adverse weather conditions, the squadron attempted emergency landing on a glacier far from populated areas. All the crewmen were rescued nine days later, but their planes, which were only lightly damaged during the landing, had to be left behind on the glacier.
Pothole detection system irons out the bumps
Drivers are facing a “pothole crisis”’, made worse this year in some areas by the “Beast from the East” arctic air-mass, which delivered icy conditions that further contributed to shattered road surfaces.
A pothole was repaired every 21 seconds on average in England and Wales during the past year and harsh impacts can also cause damage that results in hefty repair bills for car owners.
We are helping limit the impact of damaged roads for drivers of the all-new Focus by introducing innovative pothole detection technology. The system senses when a wheel is falling into a pothole and adjusts the suspension so that the wheel doesn’t fall as far into it.
VIDEO: Skeleton Ultra Capacitors Factory in Estonia
There is a small factory near Tallinn, Estonia, producing our future energy carrier. Ultra capacitors are already used in ships, electric cars, smart houses etc. See, how all this are produced in Skeleton factory from video below.
Viking Grace transforms into a sailing ship
Viking Line starts collaboration with the winds of the Baltic Sea. The M/S Viking Grace is the first passenger ship in the world equipped with a rotor sail for the utilisation of wind power. Developed by the Finnish company Norsepower Oy Ltd, the Rotor Sail Solution will cut fuel consumption and reduce emissions by up to 900 tonnes annually.
Viking Line will operate the Viking Grace on windassisted voyages between Turku (Finland) and Stockholm (Sweden) from April 12th 2018.
Graphene Ultracapacitors Deliver 34% Fuel Savings in One of the Largest Container Terminals in the Baltic Sea
Skeleton Technologies, the European leader in the production of ultracapacitors, and Transiidikeskus, one of the leading container terminals in the Baltic Region with an annual capacity of 600 000 TEU, unveil a Rubber Tyre Gantry (RTG) crane equipped with a graphene ultracapacitors powered kinetic energy recovery system (KERS) reducing the fuel consumption and CO2 emissions by 34%.
The Muuga Crane KERS solution in Estonia recuperates energy while the crane is lowering the cargo and re-uses the same energy for lifting.
