LARGEST SPHERICAL BUILDING

SkyView is the world-class attraction that takes you to the top of the world’s largest spherical building, Ericsson Globe, a Stockholm landmark. From the apex 130 meters (425 feet) above sea level, you´ll get a fantastic view encompassing all of Stockholm.



            The two SkyView gondolas departs every 10 minutes, and the entire visit takes about 20 minutes. Restaurant, cafĂ© and souvenir shop are adjacent to SkyView.




            Holders of the Stockholm Card rides for free. You are not able to book your ride in advance with the Stockholm Card, you have to come by to book a ride over desk.  Skyview is a relatively new attraction in Stockholm and it makes use of one of the city’s most unusual landmarks. The Ericsson Globe is technically the world’s largest spherical building and Skyview is a sort of ride which is bolted onto the outside of the dome.


            It reminded us of the London Eye, but Skyview is not a wheel with multiple pods, simply two pods which travel to the top and back. The journey is over quite quickly, but the view is stunning and it’s certainly an unusual way to sample the cityscape of Stockholm.



            It almost goes without saying, but make sure you go on a clear day though to get the best out of your trip. On a good day, you really can see for miles.


KAWAZU NANADARU LOOP BRIDGE

            The Kawazu-Nanadaru Loop Bridge, in Japan, is an example of how to build a bridge from one mountainside to another when the sides of the mountain are so steep that it is not possible to build a road at the same elevation on both sides.

            This double spiral brings cars up and down a full 45 meters while being seemingly suspended in a valley between two mountainsides. The spirals measure 80m in diameter and the whole ramp section is 1.1km long.

Coming upon this bridge in the middle of this mountain road is quite an experience. The bridge was finished in 1982 and has become a popular landmark on route 414 heading south from Tokyo towards the hot spring resorts of the Izu peninsula. 


       The road's winding design, providing stunning panoramic views, is very curvy and fun for a leisurely ride, so it pays to take it slow. The only way for traffic to get down the mountainside into the valley, too steep for any other usual road-building solutions. The double-spiral structure demands careful driving – the speed limit on the bridge is only 30 km/h, which also helps to better enjoy.

ROTARY CAROUSEL PARKING

             The perfect solution to park the maximum number of cars in the least amount of space. This system wonderfully fits into courtyards of housing estates and business centers. Its elegant European design can become a nice adornment for every courtyard. Rotary parking is also known as a " carousel" parking system and is intended or cars storage in a vertical rotating metal frame work.
            Our carousel design enables you to park either 7,8,10, or 12 vehicles in the space of only 2. There is no need for a parking attendant, just insert the key and press your parking space number and the pallet will rotate either clockwise or counter clockwise. It will automatically sense which way to rotate by space number. The environmentally-efficient system utilizes a Ferris wheel-style car stacker capable of holding 30 vehicles in the space of six, with retrieval time spanning 15 seconds for the lowest vehicle, and up to two minutes for the highest. The carousel parker rotates bi-directionally, sensing and lowering the vehicles to ground level.

PARKMATIC CAROUSEL
            Traffic studies estimate that nearly 30 percent of congestion on city streets comes from people looking for places to park. More vehicles also mean increased carbon emissions, as well as wasted gasoline and stress on the environment and local communities.
            The Carousel Parking System has been designed to increase the number of parking spaces and better manage turnover. It reduces the number of motorists circling for parking spots, with obvious benefits to the environment.






ADVANTAGES AND STRONG POINTS 

·     Up to 12 vehicles can be accommodated within the space normally taken up by two vehicles.
·        It is not applicable by the regulations of building coverage.
·        There is no need for an attendant because of its simple one-touch operation method.
·        Senses where vehicle is closer and rotates bi-directionally for fast retrieval time.
·        Extremely safe and reliable. Impossible for vehicles to fall with endless chain and pallet drop prevention system. Our Smart Robotic Parking Solutions come fully automated and packed with the latest technologies in automated parking systems, which will guarantee security, easy operation, and minimum running costs for your smart parking system.

RICE CULTIVATION TECHNOLOGY


Mechanized rice cultivation technology has been implemented in developed countries like USA, Japan, Australia and China. These countries  by using a certain machines in their paddy cultivation activities.

Mechanized rice cultivation methods began to provide rice seedlings like  MR219 or MR220 elected either in a special container before rice seedlings are arranged in a concrete  storey-box  with perfects irrigation systems.

After 15 days of sowing, the seedling will have been as high as 120cm and can be planted paddy fields. By using the nursery kit  it becomes  more easy because it is pre-positioned above the roll-structured farming machinery, planting rice can be run in a more orderly . This method is alleged to have caused the growth rate is faster tillers, orderly, uniform and easy to manage.
Water management can be carried out properly and it also helps to reduce the growth of weeds.

This method is suitable in the area of ​​paddy fields, water control with a perfect system , good nursery of facilities and road infrastructure facilities with adequate equipment.

Islamic Cemetery System (ICS)

BACKGROUND

Cemetery is define as tract of land used for burials. In Malaysia, there are basically three types of cemetery based on religions which are Muslims, Christians, Hindus and Buddha's. For Muslim's grave usually used tombstone allocated at the grave define to define the owner. These types of cemetery are usually separated by the area and organized by same local authority. Department under city council will give services for the burial. However, the increasing growth of population and number of death daily made the cemetery area packed and crowded. Hence database for burial and cemetery is needed to solve this problem. Islamic Cemetery System using Geographical Information System (GIS) can be used as a tool to relate the attribute in cemetery to information of the owner.
