Having solved a problem with bearings, coming up with a magnetic bearing system that can handle the stresses that would destroy regular bearings, Steorn is nearing readiness to give a public display of various Orbo systems via a live video-stream from location. via Steorn plans Orbo free energy demo in 2009. »
Solar power comes in many forms, from rigid to thin film. The panels are shiny, gleaming and ready to harness the power of the sun. They’re also usually silver. Yet they also come in colors, not just for looks, but for efficiency. A Jerusalem company called GreenSun has developed bright-colored panels. Officials say the hues capture... »
Technological advancements in wind energy efficiency have generally come incrementally and usually made via a process of increasingly large wind turbine blades. Put simply, the model has been: longer blades = more output per turbine. But that pattern of incremental improvements may be a thing of the past if Leviathan Energy has anything to say... »
The Sonea unit concept might look like some sort of ghetto blaster, but it gives back a portion of what it receives instead. This, ladies and gentlemen, is a machine that takes noise and convert it to energy for you to use it as you please. We’d probably think this would work best when... »
This innovative pump system by Slovenian inventor, Vladimir Markovic, works in relatively slow and shallow moving water (rivers) to pump water for irrigation; pump air into the water to oxygenate and clean up a river; or to pump water for driving an electric generator. The Slovenian Pump design of this self-propelled submergible pump operates with... »
A reversible permanent magnet is a magnet that can be turned on and off and can keep either state without external power. The video begins with the magnet in “on” mode, that is, it is holding the bar on the bottom against gravity. Note that the power supply is off (as seen in the background). »
Selfrunning magnetic motor Steorn forum members have been kicking around ideas for how to build an all-magnet motor with no other motive force. “Overconfident” came up with the idea, and member “nikolateslA” (read it backwards) ended up building a prototype, then shot a video showing acceleration of the device. Ironically, he doesn’t seem to appreciate... »
Using a mirror spinning at a ridiculous 20Hz—20 revolutions a second—researchers at the USC Institute for Creative Technologies have created a fully-functioning monochrome “holographic” display. web: more technical details: video: youtube.com »
Light bulb is a levitating yet powered lightbulb. It will float stably in midair and remain on for years without any physical contact, charging, or batteries. Ironically, with the levitation and wireless power circuitry both on, this entire package still consumes less than half the power of an incandescent bulb. The bulb and the casing... »
