Triton is a self-supporting buoy that can be quickly deployed at port entrances for temporary or permanent navigation direction. The system is respectful with the environment since it only uses wind and solar energy for its power. It is a great improvement over current buoy types. Designer: Dr. Hakan Gürsu for Designnobis.

Chen Feijun and Zhao Bin have designed a shoe, Pioneer, that converts the kinetic energy we generate when walking into electrical energy, which is consumed by a headlight placed at the front of the shoe. The electrical energy is stored in a battery found in the sole of the shoe, and once charged, it can

The future of the work professions will be determined by artificial intelligence (AI) and automation.
