Stop all the talking and start walking to generate energy

Electric polarization in a substance resulting from the application of mechanical stress – that’s what Piezoelectricity is. It’s used in these: Eco-Enegry Flooring System pads that use the pressure applied by people walking, running, rolling over to squeeze piezoelectric blocks. Upon squeezing, energy is generated and stored on a paper battery system. Then, THEN, the energy is used for, what else? LED lights!

The pads are actually made up of 6 layers. On top, the upper housing is water resistant, sealed with ultra-sonic welding to prevent moisture from entering the lower levels. Next, there’s the OLED board to be programmed with letters, patterns, all kinds of stuff to be lit up by the power below. Below that, sponge material working as cushioning and distribution of force and pressure. Under that, the Piezoelectric board containing crystal boards to generatre the energy. Below that PCB board. Below that the Paper Battery to store the energy. Then the bottom, the lower housing, the part that touches the ground.

Easy to transport, easy to use, basically perfect.

Cost effective? That’d be awesome.

Kurumsal Dijitalleşme mi yoksa Dijital Kurumsallaşma mı? (+Anket)

Eğer benim gibi siz de işinizin önemli bir bölümünü pazar araştırması yaparak geçiriyorsanız muhtemelen siz de en az benim kadar Türkiye'de pazar verisine ulaşmanın ne kadar zor olduğu hakkında defalarca şikayet etmiş ve sonunda yaratıcı yollar keşfetme yolunu tercih etmişsinizdir. Bunun sebebinin analitik düşünceye ihtiyacımızın olmaması mı, tembellik mi, kısa vadeli düşünmemiz mi yoksa insanüstü tahmin ve öngörü yeteneklerine sahip olmamız mı emin değilim. "Y ou can’t manage what you can’t measure " - "Ö lçemedeğiniz şeyi yönetemezsiniz " Her ne kadar bu söz, günümüze yanlış bir şekilde aktarılmış olsa da, kendi içerisinde kısmi bir doğruluk barındırmakta. Aslında bu söz ile anlatılmak istenen, ölçerek herşeyin yönetilemeyeceği fakat sonuçları iyileştirmek için süreçlerin ölçülmesi ve takip edilmesinin önemli olduğudur. Sözün asıl sahibi W. Edward Deming, verinin ve gözlemin önemini aşağıdaki sözüyle çok güzel bir şekilde anlatmaktadır....

A Creative Way to Meet Investors - UberX

Have a cool startup idea, and want to get it funded? You could go the traditional route, blindly sending your pitch deck to every VC in Silicon Valley. Or you could follow investors on Twitter, hoping that through casual badinage you can win the hearts (and eventually, the wallets) of your startup's money source. Or maybe, just maybe, you should drive for Uber. UberX Lowers The Bar Yes, Uber, the popular mobile app that connects drivers with people who need a lift. Founded in 2009 as UberCab, Uber has become the go-to app for hailing a sedan in markets like San Francisco, New York City and London. And while historically Uber operators have been commercial sedan drivers filling time between jobs their employer provides them, Uber's introduction of UberX in July 2012 has opened the service to cars and drivers of all kinds. This means that not only will you be picked up in a Toyota Prius or Volkswagen Jetta instead of a Lincoln Town Car, but you're also going...
