Single Wire/Object Transmission, and future repercussions on the technology of Wireless Power Transmission (WPT)
Engineering solutions to the development of techniques to transfer power through any physical medium or object is envisioned to mitigate the complexity involved in the wiring of electronic and electrical systems.
Call it the Swirl Drive. The purpose of the idea is to improve on the Mecanum-type drive system by increasing traction and stability (and utilizing more off-the-shelf components), while retaining its simplicity, maneuverability and control system.
Nature always has the solution to every problem, we need only to observe and investigate. This is why I have in mind that with burns, especially third-degree that leave extensive scars on the body,
In the last ten years, atmospheric phenomena have increased exponentially, and with it thousands of lives and infrastructure have been affected. Over 30 billions dollars in losses and over 500 deaths are reported so far this year in the United States alone. The situation becomes worse in developing countries.
The system shown here is miniature Gas Micro Turbines with target peak output of 10 KW, employing an unusual CPC tubular Collector as the heat source and Sodium Nitrate as the heat sink which is used later as heat recovery during no radiation condition to provide consistent electric flow.

"Synergistic Magnetic Drive System"
Inventor: Dr. Thomas P. Walker, Jr of Bogosh Walker Technologies
Electronics Engineer: Francis Flexer, Jr
Fabrication Engineer: Brian Dougherty
Purpose:
To cause movement of a cylinder containing Neodymium Magnets in a configuration,
The EZ Vac Sander is the next generation of drywall sander. This sander features advanced 3-D design to be completely dust free and have a base that IS abrasive so you never need to buy sanding meshes.
This invention is a portable magnetic strip writer and reader. This device allows the user to "swipe" a magnetic card manually for both writing and reading magnetic information to or from a card with a magnet strip and a series of closely spaced printed optical bars.
In the future, whole fields of solar systems will become increasingly important for electrical power generation. The question is where best to build such solar systems. Ideally, where there is plenty of sunlight. In development and test are solar plants in deserts. There are two challenges, however.
