Obvious for the Innas team would be a story here on the origine of their favourite Mac computers, but these were named after McIntosh apples. The waterproof raincoats are named after industrial chemist Charles Mackintosh (1766-1843). He discovered that coal tar naphtha formed an excellent solvent. Soon after he patented the method in 1823, Mackintosh began the manufacture of waterproof coats and other garments. He worked together with Thomas Hancock, who brought in his knowledge of the use of vulcanised rubber.

 |
The HyDrid is a hydraulic hybrid drive train for road vehicles. In this new concept, the complete mechanical transmission of a car is replaced by a full hydrostatic transmission, allowing energy recuperation and an efficient operation. The concept requires extremely efficient hydrostatic pumps, motors and transformers, which have been developed recently. Simulation by the German Institute for Fluid Power Drives and Controls (IFAS) at RWTH Aachen University proved that an average fuel consumption of 3.1 liter per 100 km (or 77 MPG) is possible for a mid-sized (1450 kg) passenger car.
