Take advantage of the Used Oil as a Source of Energy Restaurants Vegawatt first time launching at Finz restaurant in Dedham

CREATE and find alternative energy sources for future scientists to be the focus since some time ago. Start using solar energy to the bacteria. However, there is not a concept developed to recycle the energy. This is try disiasati James Peret.

Initially, the idea to create a source of energy used initiated James Peret top concern. Especially on the number of used oil that terbuang useless on the restaurants food is ready.

Peret then realize the idea that a tool called Vegawatt. The tool is a generator that uses oil used as fuel. Materials used are processed to produce electricity and heat to power.

Vegawatt shaped machine at almost 2 meters. Shaped more like a big tool chest placed outside the room. The tool is connected directly to the heating and electrical systems that already exist in the restaurant.

How it works includes several stages. Before the change directly into the fuel that produces electric power, used oil is poured on Vegawatt to skip some cleaning and filtrasi.

At that stage, through oil prepared for burning through the acquisition method of heat disposal system. After cleaning up gradually, the oil used to move the tank. From here, the tank nito diesel generator 15 ph strength that has been modified.

Vegawatt heat generated can be used directly to heat water. Electric power generated is not large. However, at least can save electricity consumption in a restaurant or home.

From the cleaning stages, Vegawatt akan produce oil that is completely clean. No results side, like the rest of the results of burning oil, which can contaminate the environment. So, Vegawatt really solve the problem without a new problem.

Vegawatt first time launching at Finz restaurant in Dedham, Massachusetts. Vegawatt used to change 10 gallons of oil into electric power used to be 5 kilowatt. George Carey, owner of a restaurant, have successfully revealed the cost of saving electricity bills up to USD 800 (approximately Rp 8 million).

Robovie-X is a humanoid robot like Asimo.

In Japan, the trend of making robots more focused on day-to-day needs. Both for entertainment and as a nanny.

Specifically for the purpose of entertainment, Japan, have created a robot that steals a lot of attention. The most famous, of course, Asimo and Aibo. Two robots are popular because it can interact with humans. Interesting shapes and also be calculated in the fresh world of robots.

Asimo is the form of a human-like. In fact, he has been recognized as a humanoid robot with the ability bright. Meanwhile, the Aibo, the robot dog, is also not less entertaining. Aibo has the ability to a real dog. However, the two robots are still considered quite expensive.

A robot manufacturer in Japan, Vstone, try to think in other ways. Companies that make a robot with a relatively cheap price. Co-founder and President Vstone Yamato-san stated vision of the Japanese robot in the future. Yamato-san said that the robot will become an important part of the future of mankind.

At this time many people were upset with the possible presence of a robot as a partner, nurse, or chef. However, Yamato-san thought that this was not the right way for the creation of a robot. Because, the cost is expensive and its use will be limited to the particular industry.

To be useful, robot-robot production in the future should be much cheaper. The goal, of course that can be used various sections of the community. In addition, the robot is expected to do work that humans can not be done previously.

According to Yamato-san, a robot must be able to do difficult things. For example, research, depth and height of the sea space. So, do not just mimic the work can be done better by humans.

To support that vision, Vstone to a reduction in the cost of the development of electronic elements. They also develop a more affordable product.

Companies that provide opportunities in the use of robots in the broader market. Not only for industrial purposes. This way, each school is expected to complete their robot laboratory. Education is also easier to print creator generation of robots in the future.

In 2008 launched a Vstone Robotic programming kit called Beauto Chaser. Price originally JPY 17 thousand (about Rp 1.9 million). Nominal is relatively cheap for a robot with digital programming. In fact, the price at this time to only 4 thousand JPY (about Rp 500 thousand).

In February 2009, Vstone recently introduced the latest robot project. The product named Robovie-X. He is able to perform various activities the withdrawal of men. Walk, do akrobatik movement, kicking, and even fighting.

Robovie-X is a humanoid robot like Asimo. However, as has become the vision of the future Vstone, robots are marketed with the relatively cheap price. Vstone melabeli with the price of JPY 94.5 thousand (around Rp 10 million). Vstone also exclude robots. Among Robovie-MS, an educational robot for children of primary school age. Robot is used as a medium for learning the basic help in children. (kiy / bs / KKN)
