Safe

   - Emrod uses beams in the ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) band
   with frequencies commonly used in WiFi, Bluetooth, and RfID.
   - Point-to-Point transmission means that power is beamed directly
   between two points. There is no radiation around the beam, as there is with
   high voltage wire transmission.
   - Low power laser safety curtain ensures that the transmission beam
   immediately shuts down before any transient object (such as a bird or
   helicopter) can reach the main beam ensuring it never touches anything
   except clean air.
   - Reduces electrocution risk associated with wires

As I have pointed out before on vortex, neutrino harvesting is impractical. The 
power density available is at most 80
W/m^2, while normal sunlight is about 1000 W/m^2 (at best, at the surface). To 
compound the problem, it is difficult
(being generous) to extract neutrino energy, while there are plenty of 
relatively cheap methods available for capturing
energy from sunlight.

BoB.


Randall Mills postulated an oscillating universe already 30 years ago 
based on space time expansion due to photon emission. This allowed him 
to predict that the universe in fact does expand! He also gave the very 
exact reason why this happens!! So I do not think that any of these 
astronomers are famous except for their ignorance of exact physics!


Of course this prediction (current expansion) can only be made if you 
forget the faulty Einstein general relativity and switch to a more 
general space metric.


As we know the universe is not dominated by gravity. A black hole is a 
magnetically bound mass as already Einstein 1933 did prove that based on 
gravity you cannot get a black hole.



But as said : Most today's physicists are trained ignorants!

I have often wondered about neutrino physics.  Neutrinos carry a

apparently still with respect to an observer—a neutrino detector for 
example..  However the physics of the interaction is not defined very 
well.   Empirical models do exist to allow prediction of  Interactions 
with matter.


The  characteristic of neutrinos not to not display any EM quality is 
somewhat mysterious.  (They are thought to be primary particles that 
stand alone in nature., present a small rest mass and thus be

At times I consider neutrinos to be like a dimension of space or

(time quanta).  And at a Planck  length  scale.


My comments suggest the need for some work on a physical model that 
that is validated by experimental observations!

Directed EM energy beams have been around since the 60’s at least.   To my 
knowledge gamma, x-ray and normal light all have been used in high energy 
medium and low energy transmission.

The technology associated with the medium and high energy spectrum has been 
weaponized and is classified in most places.  I am surprised about NZ.

Note how carefully the item avoids any mention of how the energy occurs for 
fear of immediate necessity for classification.

This could be closer to scam than to reality. No one really knows the loss-rate

There is not much reason to suspect that there is a breakthrough here nor that 
this makes either scientific or economic sense, other than the mention of 
Tesla, but since they apparently are not using Tesla as a reference - where is 
their data?

Wireless power transmission, if really workable, would solve this problem. 
Autos themselves could be set up to receive the power transmission, thereby 
eliminating the requirement for such large batteries.

I see what you mean. I was unaware of their focused beam method.  OTOH, Tesla 
did invent radio as we know it , but no one seems to know that.. I'm not a 
slavish Tesla fan, but the history is reasonably clear.

This system wouldn't solve the power distribution problem either, since the 
lack of enough copper happens at the lower voltage distribution level.

Similar methods have been proposed to send power to earth from orbiting solar 
cell arrays, and probably just as impractical.  Visions of birds and small 
aircraft being vaporized if they accidentally cross the beam come to mind.

Hell yes!  I bet they can't even spell Wardencliff! 

Don't need copper if everyone roofed their house with solar shingles!

 I read it but it seemed flakey. 

This could be closer to scam than to reality. No one really knows the loss-rate 
of wireless for high power uses or the dangers involved. 

There is not much reason to suspect that there is a breakthrough here nor that 
this makes either scientific or economic sense, other than the mention of 
Tesla, but since they apparently are not using Tesla as a reference - where is 
their data?

This is important. No doubt everyone other than auto mechanics and people who 
like the hear the vroom-vroom would like to switch to electric cars. The 
problem is there doesn't seem to be enough copper wire to carry all the current 
required to charge all the batteries in all the electric cars.  Last time I did 
some rough figuring, it seemed as if the maximum number of electric cars would 
be about 10% of all vehicles before the power grid was over taxed.  Look at 
what happens when there are brown-outs on hot days. Those air conditioners 
don't draw anywhere near the current required to charge a 100% electric car 
fleet.

Wireless power transmission, if really workable, would solve this problem. 
Autos themselves could be set up to receive the power transmission, thereby 
eliminating the requirement for such large batteries.
