To design and build an alternative non-petroleum transit system to shuttle both personal and private automobiles on existing interstate highways. The goal is to build a test site for both simulated static test and real time testing of a frictionless guide-way track.
As we know, bikes have been an important form of transportation used by civilization for centuries and have helped in moving their users in a lighter and faster way to their destinations.
This oral pathometer device will be able to measure chemicals that indicate host pathology and the bacterial/viral antigenic molecules. It gives not only pathogen counts but also potential measures disease activity. This invention and development are protected by patent.
Radial Air Motor Based On Rolling Elements
The subject of this entry is a new type of positive displacement air motor or pump whose features include:
•Positive, variable displacement. Allows high-speed and torque with low air consumption and minimal loss of efficiency.
•Dynamically balanced.
In 1938 Walter Adams discovered that cyanogen molecules floating in near absolute zero interstellar space were spinning and tumbling. Found to be powered by cosmic background radiation which is in 99% of the known Universe. The cyanogen molecule rotate like an armature in a nano sized electrostatic engine. Or,
With the amount of vehicles that ply on the roads every day, and with plenty of unused energy dissipated in no useful work, the proposed system would change the way the roads are used and built.
This technology would utilize the roads as power generation stations,
Conception and demonstration of a new pathology device. Initially, a non-invasive glucometer for the mass market, to extend the use of the device to facilitate the diagnosis and screening for multiple other diseases and disorders. These inventions and developments have been protected by patent.
Currently, there is no device on the market that will secure entire panels, rack mounted components, or many other similar controls mounted on flat surfaces such as the Panel Lock locking cover will. These types of controls may need to be locked out or guarded for purposes of safety,
Imagine for a moment, a reasonably priced automobile with 5 or even 11 different sized engines in it, one for every driving situation from creeping along in traffic to safely towing a large boat or travel trailer up a mountain.
