Lego car working at compressed air

A twenty years old Romanian boy, Raoul Oaida, builds
with LEGO bricks a car totally ecological, that works
with compressed air. The car is really working, it goes
at a maximum speed of about 16 m/h thanks to a
propulsion system, which is equipped, consists of four
orbital motors in their turn formed by 256 pistons.

COMMENT THESE ECO-INVENTIONS:

Solar clothes
The clothes that recharge our cell phones? It’s not only fancy, but an
invention that comes from the ingenuous of physicists of Wake Forest
University (North Carolina -US)
The clothes take advantage of the human warmth and the difference in
heat that is created on the garment itself, transforming it into energy,
so you can recharge an MP3 or 15% of the battery of a mobile phone.
The future is really upon us, a greener future!

COMMENT THESE ECO-INVENTIONS:

Drinkable sea water

The system planned to pour salt water into a special container
covered with a transparent glass sheet, which was to be exposed
to the sun, so the sun’s rays could carry out his own water
purified. This device can generate about 5 liters of fresh water
per day. The system is called Eliodomestico and is similar to a
moka coffee machine upside down, where the upper part is
filled with salt water, which evaporates with solar energy and is
pushed towards the bottom of the furnace through a capacitor
to be then collected with a plate that is extracted from the
bottom.
