Solero: Solar-powered Exploration Rover
A mobile robot is the most suited element to bring scientific instruments to a specific site in order to examine geology, mineralogy or exobiology on extraterrestrial planets. In contrast with the Mars Pathfinder mission, the actual need for mobility increases in terms of range and duration. In this respect, redesigning specific aspects of the past rover concepts, in particular the development ...
متن کاملSolar Powered Smart Irrigation System
Cost effective solar power can be the answer for all our energy needs. Solar powered smart irrigation systems are the answer to the Indian farmer. This system consists of solar powered water pump along with an automatic water flow control using a moisture sensor. It is the proposed solution for the present energy crisis for the Indian farmers. This system conserves electricity by reducing the u...
متن کاملSunShade: Enabling Soware-defined Solar-Powered Systems
e electric grid was not designed to support the large-scale penetration of intermient solar generation. As a result, current policies place hard caps on the solar capacity that may connect to the grid. Unfortunately, users are increasingly hiing these caps, which is restricting the natural growth of solar power. To address the problem, we propose Soware-dened Solar-powered (SDS) systems th...
متن کاملSolar-powered ventilation of African termite mounds.
How termite mounds function to facilitate climate control is still only partially understood. Recent experimental evidence in the mounds of a single species, the south Asian termite Odontotermes obesus, suggests that the daily oscillations of radiant heating associated with diurnal insolation patterns drive convective flow within them. How general this mechanism is remains unknown. To probe thi...
متن کاملOn the feasibility of solar-powered irrigation
Solar-powered agricultural irrigation is an attractive application of renewable energy. However, to be practical it must be both technically and economically feasible. Here, a method is presented for calculating the feasibility of photovoltaic-powered (PVP) irrigation. The feasibility is expressed as a function of location, which includes climate data, aquifer depth and cost, including local po...
