Intelligent Prop-less & Rudderless Sub & Surface Craft Drive System

Octahedrals (8 sided shapes) and tetrahedrals (4 sided shapes) when they come together can form complete solids. Magnetic manipulation of the tetrahedrals so they are pushed and pulled, creates an exciting world of one way valves, pump actions and other features to create thrust in any direction. No rotating giveaway hum of rotating propellers, shafts and (electric) motors.

Kinetic Energy Recovery Wing & Body Design

Reduction of drag and boosting of lift to drag ratio is of paramount importance to maximize flight efficiency. In order to reduce turbulence and thereby reduce drag and increase lift to drag ratio, I have successfully developed a new concept after spending several years to research. To move a body against a fluid,

Light-Interface System, Invisibility (Adaptive Camouflage) and Holodeck (Virtual Immersion) Theory

My Light-Interface concept simply takes the same shape as the space that an object is resting in, but in a concentrated form while being modified light field " fly-eye" optically connected to the outer surface of the object with opto-electronic,

Lightweight Heat, Fire,and Ballistic Resistant Ammunition Containers

Current steel can ammunition containers provide almost no thermal insulation in case of fire, acting as baking tins, resulting in the ammunition cooking off, which can end up with numerous casualties and an aborted mission. The current metal cases provide almost no ballistic protection and can be come bent pining the ammunition in so it is unusable.

Long Life Aerogel Lighter than Air Persistant Vehicle

Purpose

This entry is for developing a persistent near space solid lighter than air reconnaissance and communications platform that would in many instances take the place of a satellite, be considerably more maneuverable, cheaper to make and operate, and produce better quality images while lingering in trouble spots indefinitely.

Low-cost Advanced Space Suit for Skydiving and Space Jump

Skydiving is a transiting from sky to Earth, may involve free-falling when the parachute has not yet been deployed. Skydiving is limited in altitude. Oxygen mask above 50,000 feet does not provide protection for body from low pressure. Only full pressure suit provides protection at high altitude. Standard space suit design requires significant updates for supersonic freefall,

Medical Check Aboard

Until now customers go to an airport to take an international flight by an airplane service company and when they want to be medically tested go to a medical service provider. Sometimes passengers take flights with the purpose of being treated by a medical test provider at the destination. But now this is about to change.

Method of Automatic Target Angle Tracking by Sum-and-Difference Monopulse Radar Under Conditions of Polarization Interference

This proposal relates generally to radiolocation sphere, and particularly to monopulse direction finding systems. It can be used to increase guidance accuracy, for example, of unmanned aerial vehicles to targets such as: aerial (sea and/or ground-based) vehicles reflecting the radio signal that illuminates them; some devices radiating radio signals and jamming signals; radio beacons.

How it works.

Modular Space Tether

A tether having a fully modular design and employing modular components can be transported piecemeal into space and assembled in situ. The modular components are interchangeable with one another. In a preferred embodiment, the modular components are designed to facilitate robotic assembly in situ for constructing the entire tether while in orbit.

Mulit-Cycle Subsonic / Supersonic / Pulse Detonation Expansion Engine

Multi-Mode Hybrid Subsonic/Supersonic/Pulse Detonation Combustion Engine System:

This engine functions as an Expansion-Cycle Turbojet for takeoffs and landings (for noise reasons). Then transitions through Pulse-Detonation Turbojet, Pulse-Detonation Ramjet, Supersonic-Combustion Ramjet, and Pulse-Detonation Rocket as it accelerates into earth orbit.
