The PVLPR is a new generation tool for the synthetic photochemistry research. Research over last decade have inspired the industries to make standardized photo reactors. YAREV Technology has come up with the new generation model of PVLPR for the scientific community and pharma sectors. The optimized design makes the reactor space friendly in the cosy spaces of the chemistry research labs. The reactor is consistent throughout reactions water-cooled, equipped with adequately agitated light source.

Bud Planter solves the challenges that growing house plants faces, such as a lack of sunlight, difficulty watering, limited space, and the fact that plants frequently require a lot of attention. You won't have to worry about them underwater or being overwatered, or not getting enough sunlight or being exposed. Bud knows exactly what your plants require, whether it's edibles, succulents, or ornamentals (You can grow anything at Home).

The IoT enabled Digital Ultrasonic Level Sensor is a standalone device for measuring the level, and height monitoring in tanks, bins, flumes etc. The device is equipped with industrial grade ultrasonic sensor with highly accurate and noise free readings. The device is quite handy and comes with a local display. The display alerts the user about the readings as well as the errors if any. The device takes the travel time of high frequency signal into account for measuring the distance of the object or level.
Innovations

This invention relates to a sensor calibration system which will acquire the data from the sensor under test, transfer and analyze data at a remote location via the Internet, using internet of things (IoT) enabled microcontroller system and executing error compensation using a ground truth measurement system that characterizes the sensor. Furthermore, this invention also relates to a sensor calibration system which has the advantages of being simple in structure and convenient to use and install and cost effective.

The present invention relates to an improved clamping device which can be used to hold two or three work pieces providing eleven degrees of freedom independently along each of the three radial vertical planes which maintains multiple angle relationship. These work pieces can be easily aligned at any angle with precision. One of the three vertical planes is detachable which provides even more freedom to easily mount and remove the device and work pieces if necessary.

The patch creates a moist environment that would enable the body to heal on its own through the endogenous enzymes. Further, it provides a physical barrier to the wound against the entry of environmental pathogens. It can also be loaded with antibiotics and growth factors for enhanced functionality.
