My project is TerraMech. It can autonomously maneuver and detect weeds in your yard, and then exterminate them. It hopes to reduce time and effort spent on doing yard work so you can spend your valuable time doing more important activities.
Andrew Xu-Ding – FireGuardian
My invention is called FireGuardian.
It is a fire detection device which, can sense temperature and gas changes in the environment. Many devices can be placed in different regions of the house and linked onto a wireless server. FireGuardian can notify the owner or fire fighter exactly where the fire is. This enables the owner of the house or fire department to react accordingly to avoid the fire or limit the fire from spreading, saving lives and reducing property damage.
