My Concept Motorcycle # 1

My Concept Motorcycle # 1
.
      Once upon a time a few decads ago I watched a punjabi film maybe on PTV or maybe in some Cinema. I do not remember that film's name now neither I remember it's story or any song or any dialoge etc. But I still remember one scene of that film in some detail. According to what I still remember hero of that film was a tanga (carriage) driver or maybe owner of tonga. Horse of hero's tonga was pure white.
      Now about that scene, which somehow I still remember,  before I forget it also. Hero of that film was going somewhere on his tanga drawn by white horse. Somewhere on his way villain party blocks hero's way and then hero and villain & co. starts fighting with each other. Because hero was alone and villain party were more in number, villain party was having an upper hand in that fighting.
      Watching all this with great anxiety and anticipating something bad for hero of the film and his master, white horse of hero's tonga made a quick rescue plan. After standing on his rear feet again and again and trying to do boxing with villain party and making sounds he, the white horse, ran back to hero's house in his village.
      On watching tanga back at home without his master, hero's family got upset. Meanwhile horse kept rising on his rear legs, moving his front legs in air, and making different sounds. At last hero's family, with the help of background music, were able to decipher horse's help call. And almost entire family of hero, male and female, young and old, stepped on to tanga and tanga pulled by white horse raced back to the place where hero of the film was trapped by villain party.
      After that what happened I do not remember. I do not remember any thing before that scene either.
      Maybe this scene and some good looking heavy bikes were in my mind that I thought why not I try to make a motorcycle which drives on it's own.
.

      Since then I kept adding and subtracting features to my concept motorcycle which nowadays looks like following:-
Electric powered: Motorcycle will be powered by chargeable batteries fitted in place of engine area. Which will power two electric motors fitted in front and back wheels.
All wheel drive: Motors fitted in wheels will drive them directly. Because of this motorcycle will drive better on the road and off the road.
All wheel steering: This will give better control over motorcycle's movement.
Reverse gear: Motorcycle will have one reverse gear in addition of normal front gears.
Self driving: Motorcycle will be able to drive totally by itself.
Self balancing: Motorcycle will be able to balance itself on it's own as long as it's engine remain on.
.

.
      This type of motorcycle will be very useful in situations where motorcycle rider gets enjured or gets unconcious etc during ride. Because motorcycle will be able to take it's rider to nearest 'human service center' like hospital or home etc automatically on its own without requiring any human help.
.
Let's see what happens next.

Converter emulator Ver 5 - C Sharp

Converter emulator Ver 5
(My mobile's Converter emulator written by me in c#)
.
      After making emulators for stopwatch found in my mobile I searched my mobile further to select a few more apps to make their emulators. 'Converter' was one of app I short listed for making myself in C Sharp Windows Forms Application.
      My mobile's 'Converter' app's purpose is to convert values from one unit to another so it is a simple app. Making of it's emulator was also simple. In my version of 'Converter' I reduced  or removed features and categories of units for keeping things simple.
      It's UI(User Interface) is also simple and easy to understand. It loads with a 'Category' and 'Subcategory' value set and 'Precision' selected. On entering value for a row it calculates and displays value for other row. From 'Menu' either 'Help' can be viewed or 'Category/Subcategory' can be selected. Press 'Enter' in any row under 'Value' column to get value of other row updated. Use mouse, 'TAB', 'UP-Arrow' and 'DOWN-Arrow' for navigating between form fields. Precision from 1 to 10 can be selected.
.

      Following are the screen shots of 'Converter' application with explanation.
.
Application looks like this when it is loaded
.

Application looks like this when 1st it is loaded and 2nd from it's 'Menu' 'Help' option is selected.
.

Application looks like this when 1st it is loaded and 2nd some of it's menus are expended.
.

Application looks like this when 1st it is loaded and 2nd it's 'Menu -> Category/Subcategory' -> Temperature -> Fahrenheit <-> Celsius' is selected and 3rd '32' is entered under value column for 'Fahrenheit' row and 4th result for 'Celsius' row under value column is displayed.
.

      I will soon upload this 'Converter' application's entire project to some site and put project's download link from there here. And may be before that I will post important parts of this  'Converter' application's source code here.

      Until then download and extract and run and enjoy DEMO of this 'Converter' application written and compiled in visual studio 2010 Ultimate by me.
