Autonomous robot which sweeps the sides of the highway, compresses trash and disposes of it at various rest stops. The rest stops will be linked to the local town's garbage route. Power will come from both solar and battery power. At each rest stop towns participating in the program will be given a battery to recharge and place back into the rest stop.

an attachment that hooks onto the back and powers the wheel through a pulley mechanism. This will be better than other devices on the market because it will be easier to install.

# data[].attributes.body
Arm that aids in cooking for people with one hand in things such as cutting and holding. Currently mechanical, but could be made robotic in the future.

# data[].attributes.body
It is a search and rescue drone that helps find people when natural disaster happen. It is autonomous so it will do its job better, and a fleet of them can operate with no need for human intervention. Humans only have to deploy the drones.

# data[].attributes.body
This is a great idea! I was wondering what you were going to do when it rains or snows? Or if it was cold outside, especially with the high altitudes of the hikers.

# data[].attributes.body
An autonomous plane which can monitor and collect data on wildfires.

I am creating a underwater vehicle that can remove an invasive plant (hydrilla) from various aquatic environments. The drone utilizes an rake and vacuum to sift through the aquatic vegetation while removing only the hydrilla (which is a weed with weaker root structures). The drone can also operate without the rake so that it can remove floating and surface vegetation. Once the craft removed the vegetation it deposits it in within a tank on a boat.

# data[].attributes.body
Low profile telescoping hydraulic jack. designed to be small enough to be able to fit inside the glovebox of a car, while having the strength to lift a 4 ton car.

# data[].attributes.body
how were you going to differentiate people and animals? How is it going to rescue people, by sending their locations or giving them resources?

# data[].attributes.body
It seems like a clunky but cool idea. Have you considered reengineering a cutting board to try to solve this purpose? A autonomous cutter maybe?

# data[].attributes.body
This is a portable led board sign that alerts traffic when there is road work or an accident in the street.  This device is remote controlled and can be set up and used by one person rather than the 2 people traffic control usually requires.  This sign can make different arrows or words that alerts traffic to either stop, go, or assign a direction of traffic flow.  Primary use in the fire service for motor vehicle accidents as well as road construction/ work being done in the road(Tree removal, Eversource work, Etc.).

# data[].attributes.body
Cool idea! Will the pulley generate motion unprompted, or does the user have to continuously provide small amounts of energy to the system? Also, how can the apparatus be removed/installed?

# data[].attributes.body
How do we avoid this robot getting hit by traffic and or causing an accident.

# data[].attributes.body
what outer material and power source were you planning to use to make it water proof?

# data[].attributes.body
The hydrilla must be really deadly then. Would the machine remove other small organisms too? Especially with a vacuum, how would it differentiate with small organisms getting sucked in?

# data[].attributes.body
How is the information collected? (wireless, wired to another device, etc) In addition, can that be used to collect data other than wildfire data? Like amount of moisture in various areas so then people who have medical problems can find a good environment to live - could expand on the tech with more uses as well

# data[].attributes.body
Is this going to come at a great cost for town emergency agencies or whoever will be funding these drones?

# data[].attributes.body
This may be a stupid question, but how are you going to harness the thermal energy, because you cant just boil water with someone's back sweat?

# data[].attributes.body
How will this connect to the backpack and the wheel without pulling the person down or getting caught / messed up in some way?

# data[].attributes.body
What information were you going to collect and how were you going to test it?

# data[].attributes.body
Where will thew robot place the garbage, will it be like wall-e and create large trash cube towers on the side of the highway?

# data[].attributes.body
How might the current and other varying weather conditions effect the dextariaty of the bot

# data[].attributes.body
So it can no longer extinguish them? Also how are you planning to operate at such high altitudes and/or temperatures?

# data[].attributes.body
Can the apparatus be easily removed after cooking, or is it a more permanent assistant? Also, how easy would it be to do something else, say, in the time that a component of a baked good needs to do a certain process (like rising bread, or baking a part of a cake)? Is the prosthetic multi-use?

# data[].attributes.body
What if you are wearing thermally insulative layers like a swea5tshirt or a jacket?

# data[].attributes.body
Would this be marketed for extreme environments like muddy trails, or would it be more for city use?

# data[].attributes.body
How will it be portable while also being big enough to view by the cars from a distance and how is it going to withstand certain weather conditions?

# data[].attributes.body
How is someone who does not have a lot of engineering know how going to use this system?

# data[].attributes.body
what material are you going to use to make it strong enough to lift a car?

# data[].attributes.body
How would this be different from other products on the market? In what scenario would this best be used? (target demographic)

# data[].attributes.body
How would it be controlled after installation or is it just assisted pedaling?

# data[].attributes.body
what will the universability of this device look like? can I only use it on road bikes or mountain bikes etc?

# data[].attributes.body
How is it going to take into consideration for larger trash objects or disruptions in the road? How will it find the trash without hitting cars?

# data[].attributes.body
How heavy will this be to lift four tons and be that tiny? Will it be battery powered or man powered, and how easy will it be to use?

# data[].attributes.body
How might this be different than drones we have today?

# data[].attributes.body
what about fallen limbs and or trees, will it be able to handle these?

# data[].attributes.body
what might the reliability of a product like this look like? With so many moving parts and fluids and gaskets might there be points for failure?

# data[].attributes.body
Would there be any other plants or animals in the environment that would be removed from the ecosystem as an unwanted byproduct? Also, how would you make sure the drone can move over rough ocean floor?

# data[].attributes.body
How might this be different than a normal holding vise or clamp?

# data[].attributes.body
Would this be more efficient than solar?

# data[].attributes.body
How large of an area would one robot patrol?

# data[].attributes.body
how will the system be able to deal with uncertainty or variability like humans can make gut decisions.

# data[].attributes.body
how is the drone going to be able to detect humans from far above?

# data[].attributes.body
How much compost could you create and at what rate would your machine collect? How big would the robot be to store a large quantity of Hydrilla and remove it efficiently and effectivley?

# data[].attributes.body
Have you heard of recco? https://recco.com/
you might be able to do something like this to detect people

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
RECCO® Technology makes you searchable by rescue professionals worldwide.

Would you need two of them on each side of the road, closer or further depending on the disturbance, and if so, how would they communicate with each other? In addition, how can the single person operating the system see what they need to advise if there is low visibility in the area? (usually two people each are in charge of one direction and they talk to each other)

# data[].attributes.body
How large would the actual generator be and how would that affect space in the backpack

# data[].attributes.body
What if the person in question needs immediate help? Would these drones have some resources that the victims could use in a pinch? ex. a med kit or an AED

# data[].attributes.body
Is this a common problem?

# data[].attributes.body
How can the robot be guaranteed safety? Cars pull off on the highway all the time, so how can the robots stay safe? How big will they be?

# data[].attributes.body
Water proof? Heat proof?

# data[].attributes.body
so the jack can fit in the glove box, but what powers the jack: air? if so where can this fit?

# data[].attributes.body
How will the mechanical version be operated? As for the robotic version, will the tasks be pre programmed or AI?

# data[].attributes.body
by arm do you mean a human like arm, or something mire similar to a robotic arm kit? will the arm move only up and down and move the food with some sort of conveyor, or will it have multiple degrees of freedom?

# data[].attributes.body
How low profile do you plan to make the jack. would the height of the jack be < 4 inches?

# data[].attributes.body
who really cares about fires?? lame project you should quit now and save you the useless endeavor

# data[].attributes.body
Could the arm be used for other household tasks?
