Stony Brook Solar Electric Boat

Faire: Long Island

Maker: Stony Brook Solar Racing

Home: New York, United States of America

Stony Brook Solar Racing is a student-led design team dedicated to designing and building high-performance solar electric boats for two annual competitions: Solar Splash and Promoting Electric Propulsion (PEP). Each year, the team constructs two vessels—a manned and an unmanned. The manned boat is 14 feet long, runs on 36 volts, and controlled via throttle and steering levers. For Solar Splash, solar panels are mounted to continuously recharge the batteries. The unmanned vessel, which competes exclusively in PEP, is a half-scale model of the manned vessel, and was originally remote controlled, but is currently getting upgraded for autonomous operation.

ScienceLab

Faire: Tashkent

Maker: Sciencelab

Home: Mirabad, Uzbekistan

ScienceLab is a social project created to enable children in our country to engage with the world of science with interest and pleasure. We prove that science is not boring, but incredibly exciting, educational, and fun! This is an interactive space where children and adults can not only watch but also touch, try, and experiment. We have many scientific exhibits, installations, and toys that help us understand how the world works. Our employees explain what is happening in simple terms. Our goal is to awaken in children a keen interest in science, to develop their thinking, curiosity, and desire to learn about the world around them. We want as many children as possible to have access to engaging and inspiring scientific experiences.

Self-sustainable water filtering system

Faire: Tashkent

Maker: Epic Crew

Home: Jizzakh city, Uzbekistan

Our project introduces a self-sustainable water filtering system. Its main goal is to provide clean drinking water without harming the environment. The system requires no fuel, as it uses solar energy to purify undrinkable water. Through solar mirrors, the sun’s heat boils the water, and the vapor is collected and condensed into safe, drinkable water. A durable metal container stores the water, and tubes transport it efficiently. This eco-friendly design saves fuel, protects nature, and ensures a reliable source of clean water. Simple yet effective, our project offers a sustainable solution for everyone.

Solar Generator

Faire: Downtown Columbia

Maker: Unallocated Space

Home: Maryland, United States of America

I made a Solar Generator at Unallocated Maker Space. It’s a portable device that can supply 120 AC power in remote locations and or in times of Emergencies. I would like to demonstrate my project. I have no commercial interest. The system breaks down into two suitcases and a bag full of cables plus solar panels. I have spare parts and diagnostic equipment from the generator's creation to use as props for the demo along with photos of the process. (Sustainability & Green Tech) The solar generator is made with reclaimed LiFePo Cells. The cells were harvested from old packs tested for charge and discharge characteristics then rebuilt into differently configured packs. (Design and Fabrication) Raw PCBs were made from files and I populated the board by hand.

Solar Cat

Faire: Coney Island

Maker: Furnow Feline Shelters

Home: New York, United States of America

The SolarCat is a modified stray cat shelter that includes a solar powered temperature activated fan! Temperatures above 100*F can be dangerous for cats and deadly for those who cannot seek proper protection like many strays across the world. The SolarCat aims to fix this by supplying a temperature controlled fan making ordinary shelters into makeshift cooling stations. The project uses easily accessible materials like a 12V PC fan and runs on a solar charged battery meaning it can run over long periods of time

Wheels to Watts

Faire: Tashkent

Maker: 3/1018

Home: Tashkent, Uzbekistan

Wheels to Watts (WtW) is an innovative energy-harvesting system that generates electricity from the pressure of moving vehicle wheels. Using a rack-and-pinion mechanism connected to a generator, the downward force of passing vehicles is converted into rotational motion, producing clean, renewable power. A restoring element ensures the system resets for continuous operation. Designed for highways, toll gates, and busy roads, WtW offers a sustainable solution to power streetlights, signals, and charging stations while reducing reliance on non-renewable energy sources.
