An Arduino-Based Autonomous Serving Robot with GPS Navigation for Cost-Effective Service Automation
Abstract: Robots built for service are no longer confined to research labs or luxury hotels; they are starting to appear in everyday spaces where speed and consistency make a real difference. In a restaurant, for example, a robot that can deliver meals and clear trays reduces staff workload, while in hospitals it can free nurses from routine errands. Schools, too, can benefit by using such machines for both practical and teaching …

Multifunctional Car Covering System
Abstract: Traditional car covers are heavy, consume much space, and are not suitable for today’s advanced generation. They fail to meet the evolving necessities of modern vehicle protection. Often, they are operated manually, offer minimal security, and lack advanced features such as automated deployment or integrated maintenance systems. To address these problems and limitations, this project introduces an innovative and multifunctional smart car covering system powered by a wiper-like mechanism and …

Alteration in Metabolic Enzymes of Albino Rats under Cadmium Stress and their Modulation by Mentha Piperita
Abstract: Cadmium is a heavy metal posing severe risks to human health without any physiological function in the human body. Cadmium is found regularly in soil, rocks and ores, thus natural exposure is an important aspect, but increasing industrial application has put it in the category of bio-hazardous metals. Anticorrosive agents, stabilizer in PVC products, colour pigments, neutron-absorber in nuclear power plants, the fabrication of nickel-cadmium batteries and Phosphate fertilizers carry …
