Brand: Shenghan Lu，Mengting Zhang Design Type: Hydrogen Powered Trimaran Category: Futuristic

Wandering Ark

Wandering Ark is a concept for a hydrogen powered trimaran designed as a floating habitat at sea. The hull combines a trimaran form with an X bow shape to provide strong stability in different sea conditions. A large superstructure offers living space for residents. Solar, wind and wave systems collect energy, and a seawater hydrogen production system stores hydrogen on board. Fuel cells convert the stored hydrogen into electricity for propulsion and daily use. Water is the only emission of the process, so the vessel reaches zero emissions.

Acoustic Cable Deicing Robot

Acoustic Cable Deicing Robot is a conceptual robot designed to remove ice from power cables after snowstorms. The device is mounted directly on the cable. A cylindrical heating ring inside the robot gradually warms the cable surface until the ice melts. An anti-freezing material on the outer layer prevents ice from forming again. Closed switches on both sides keep the robot attached during work. A manual interface and a mobile application let the operator preset tasks and follow progress. The robot is intended to replace manual deicing at height and reduce risk for workers.
