  • Inventor Manu Prakash turns everyday materials into powerful scientific devices, from paper microscopes to a clever new mosquito tracker. From the TED Fellows stage, he demos Paperfuge, a hand-powered centrifuge inspired by a spinning toy that costs 20 cents to make and can do the work of a $1,000 machine, no electricity required.

      @lilaclizard4504 6 років тому +5

      exactly!!!!!
      actually he seems a bit disorganised, the quint essential eccentric genius :) so maybe give him 10x10 minute speeches instead, different speech time session for each invention

    I don't know why no one talks about people like him who have actual solutions, and others are always on news channels with no solution and just talks

      I don't think the "others" have no solutions, they just have solutions for other circumstances.

    I got Dengue a few months ago, I couldn’t do much for two weeks, and felt horrible for 3, and this was with every medical necessity covered, I can’t imagine how people with lower resources deal with it, his work amazes me, I hope he will continue to do thing like this, I really admire him

      Summit Tea
      Yes, it's in reference to a speech given by Bill Gates, one of the creators of Microsoft, where he had a jar of mosquitoes that he released upon his audience as a joke to say why should the rich not get the experience of malaria? The Ted talk he did is still viewable today if you would like to view it.

      I mean, If theranos was legit that would've also been a revolution. Part of the reason it was so scandalous was that they were so convincing. You can't really fault the people who invested in it.

    Two questions :
    1) how can you make this keep continuously rotating only in one direction, and you can keep adding energy to it ? (like spinning mops, or vintage old spinning top )
    2) how can we incorporate it in a bicycle?
    3) how about a skateboard working with this principle, where you just pull a string?
