Craft shall go faster, farther and carry more than any before on the same weight and power, and will do so as boat, sailboat, hydrofoil-boat, hydrofoil-sailboat, WIG or airplane. Technologies, components, and companies that can build it, exist. It will be made for purposes of business,
Product Idea: The said invention is a multi-powered battery operated electric tractor.
How it works: The electric tractor is driven by an electronically controlled traction motor, powered by on-board, high energy density traction batteries.
The goal was to design a highly accurate, cost effective dispense pump that would be 100% PTFE (Teflon) in the wetted flow path which results in excellent chemical resistance to acids and bases. PTFE also has extremely low surface energy which results in minimal retention for bio-pharma applications.
By using the power of magnetism, I have a way to make the articulating joints in robots very strong and lightweight. Use electromagnets in the joints. I have AC drives that can produce an unlimited amount of power to move robots. Imagine two magnets,
