Flywheel research at NASA and BOEING and other places are proving that this energy storage has arrived.
When weapons are used as energy or particle accelerators, one major problem has been to get sufficient burst energy to fire and then to be able to fire successive shots.
An object of the invention is to provide an apparatus and method for accurately and easily guiding a vehicle into a garage to a predetermined location.

This invention is a lane guiding addition to a modern GPS, directing the driver into the correct lane for navigation, without having to remove their eyes from the road.
Complex three, four and five lane highways (California, Texas, New York, DC come to mind),
Pathogenic micro-organisms in blood detected by an optical image recognition system are located, identified, and selectively targeted by a computer which aims focused laser beams at them to kill or neutralize them. This invention will kill all recognized microorganisms, abnormal cells, and viruses in blood.
