Illuminated heated driveway
The illuminated heated driveway is an overlay panel that covers and heats a covered area exemplified by, but not limited to, a driveway or a sidewalk. Multiple overlay panels may be conjoined to cover an area larger than a single overlay panel. The overlay panels are powered by a power assembly that couples to a connector on one of the overlay panels. Additional connectors may electrically couple adjacent overlay panels. Within each overlay panel, a heating element and a lighting system is electrically connected to the power connectors. The heating element may melt wintry weather that accumulates on the panel and the lighting system may cause the panel to glow for improved visibility. The power assembly may comprise a time to turn the panel on and off throughout the day.

Smart Modular Street and Sidewalk
A modular system for streets formed of a top module, a bottom module, an internal cavity formed within the bottom module, cables positioned within said bottom module, a computing device, sensors operatively associated with said computing device, and communications hardware configured to communicate information from said sensors to a second computing device positioned exterior to said modular system.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CUSTOMIZING A PLAYING FIELD
A customizable playing field includes a turf system comprising a tile with a turf layer. The tile overlays a subfloor, defining a reservoir thereunder. A forced air system includes a pipe disposed within the reservoir and operatively coupled to a pump; and a sensor. A control system controls the pump, and includes a processor in data communication with at least one input/output device and computer memory. The computer memory has a program with machine readable instructions that, when effected by the processor, perform the following steps: if the temperature is above a predetermined threshold as measured by the sensor, forcing a cool fluid through the pipe; and if the temperature is below a predetermined threshold as measured by the sensor, forcing a warm fluid through the pipe.

Modular Systems and Methods for Monitoring and Distributing Power
A modular system and method for monitoring and distributing power is disclosed. A container having at least one side surface with an exit port or entrance port, a conduit transmitting through the container and an internal cavity. A container system in the internal cavity has a power distribution system, a data distribution system, and monitoring sensor monitoring container system data. A processor receives the container system data from the monitoring sensor, processes the data and transmits the processed data to the container system.
MODULAR SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MONITORING AND DISTRIBUTING POWER
The present invention discloses a plurality of modular containers. The modular containers can comprise a first container that includes a first top surface, a first bottom surface and at least one first side surface oriented between the first top and the first bottom surface. The first container can define a first internal cavity. The modular containers can also include a container system that is located in the first internal cavity. The modular containers can include a power distribution system and a data distribution system. In addition, the modular containers can include a second container. The second container can comprise a second top surface, a second bottom surface and at least one second side surface oriented between the second top and the second bottom surface. The second container can also define second internal cavity. Further, the modular containers can include a container subsystem located in the second internal cavity. The container system can also be in communication with the container subsystem.
