This device is for the transmission of energy to the electrical system of the body via wireless inductive coupling. It is designed to serve in several capacities:
1. A source of stable amplitude on a particular vector to neuronal tissues of the body without surgical invasion.
As people are paying more and more attention on green and renewable energy sources for the purpose of transportation and mobility, I design this concept vessel using wave energy which is collected by a set of unique "antennae."
The vessel is designed to be unmanned,
I propose to airlift two small wind turbines to a height (550 meters) utilizing a towed auto-gyro and keep it aloft by means of a tether to the ground. Because the wind is both consistent and steady at altitudes above 500 meters,
