07/25/2005 00:29:01 Ideas Idea-3D TV without those silly glasses. | Mon |||||||||||||||||||
It's simple. Ever see those 3D post cards or 3D Jesus on the Cross paintings. Now, I wondered this when I was a kid. I dissected one of those Jesus 3D post cards. On the front of the card is a square of plastic, with ridges in it. These ridges act as lens to focus your eye on a particular perspective of the picture. The picture behind the plastic is actually TWO pictures. Anyway, with one of these square of plastic on a computer monitor, it would be possible to write computer games that don't require glasses. They just interlace 2 images on the screen. Simple, sweet, and no one's made it yet. Why? |
07/10/2005 22:07:04 Ideas Our brain | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Here's another thought for anyone that wants to hear it. Its about our brain. The Carotid and Vertebral Arteries feed the brain. Blood flows through those little arteries. Why can't all of those wonderful scientist and doctors figure out what the brain needs, and supply it to the head without a body? That doesn't sound too complicated, does it? I keep thinking about that Starship Captain on Star Trek (Pike). His head came out of a box, but he could only answer yes and no. Right now, heart surgery is done by diverting the blood through a heart/lung machine. Hmmmm. Also, instead of embalming or cremating people, wouldn't it be better to dehydrate them? At least there would be a that we could be reanimated sometime in the future. If you are cremated, you have no chance for reanimation, other than someone going back into time and snatching you out. I've always thought that's what the Egyptians were thinking when they mummified their Pharoahs. |
07/10/2005 20:20:28 Ideas LED lights | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
100 watts is enough energy to power 10 equivalant (lux) rated LED lights The energy usage for LED lights is 10 x less than incandescent lights. They don't generate much heat. And they don't burn out. Australians seems to be turned on to the idea. |
07/10/2005 19:07:42 Ideas A Battery that is 100% Efficient. | Sun |||||||||||||||||||
Store energy from sun, wind or water with an endless amount of storage. How? Pump energy back into the Electric Companies power grid. Your meter runs backwards for every kilowatt hour. |
08/17/2006 11:23:27 Ideas (Reply)My take on the these ideas is this: | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
We don't have them because nobody really cares about energy waste, the atmosphere, the burning of fossil fuels, or nuclear power. People like to complain, but nobody's thinking. If we can't get huge corporations to change the world for us, if they are stuck in a money making groove, then we should take things into our own hands. Some of the ideas above can be applied over a weekend. |
08/17/2006 13:26:11 Ideas (Reply)Idea-a simple 12v lighting system for domestic pur | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
Just replace the circuit breaker and screw in new bulbs! Lights are on separate circuits that the outlets. They are typically on a breaker that is 1 amp for each light bulb plugged into the loop. My 1,300 square foot house has 2 x 15 amp breakers for the lights. If I were to go outside, place a rectifier between the circuit breaker and the breaker box, my lighting circuits could be converted to 12 volts in less than 10 minutes. All that would be left would be screwing in the 12 volt bulbs. Better than a 12 volt system would be a 4.5 volt led lighting system. They don't waste energy on heat. Simple stuff. Quick to do. |
08/17/2006 13:26:36 Ideas (Reply)Idea-12 volt heat operated refrigerators, like Gra | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
If your old enough, you'd remember how Grandpa put a candle in the Ice Box every night. That would charge the ammonia absorbtion system for the next day. These refrigerators are currently found in Travel Trailers and RVs. They can be powered by the sun. Its a simple system with no moving parts. |
08/17/2006 13:26:50 Ideas (Reply)Idea-Shiftless Transmissions | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
When I was a kid, I came up with this one. I wanted to make a go cart using an old lawn mower engine. The problem then, was the motor was vertical, while the wheels were horizontal. Then answer: A Ball on a shaft connected to the wheels. The ball rolls on a circular plate that is driven by the motor. The ball can be positioned from the middle of the plate the outside of the plate which makes it turn faster. That was a simple design From a stupid little kid (me). A friend of mine told me they have variable ration transmissions. They use a piston with a variable stroke length to feed another piston driving the wheels. |
08/17/2006 13:28:50 Ideas (Reply)Idea-A Water Valve With No Moving Parts | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
My brother wanted a noninvasive way of stopping water flow to a line needing a replacement valve. The answer: Freezing the water. Liquid nitrogen might be a good pick here, rapidly applied to avoid problems with expansion. |
08/17/2006 13:29:02 Ideas (Reply)Idea-Vehicles that runs off of water and trash | Thu |||||||||||||||||||
100 years ago, they called them Locomotives. To simple to miss, all you need is heat, which could come from anything, even your trash. All that is needed is a way to clean up the soot. |
07/09/2005 15:19:55 Ideas Its this E=MC2 stuff. | Sat |||||||||||||||||||
The formula seems to suggest anything is possible. Things like matter and energy seem to be interchangable. That bothers me, because I haven't seen it. What I wonder is this: If you have a sealed jar, is there anyway to make it lose matter (weigh less) without cracking the lid? How long would it take the contents to turn into some form of energy? Hmmm.... I also wonder this...if you were floating in space, and you had something like a Yo Yo Could you use it to somehow propell you through space? Is there anyway to move your body to propell yourself in space? If there is a way, it seems like an antigravity device could exist. The little device I've created that saves 20% energy is incredibly simple. How many other incredibly simple devices are being overlooked? Why would they be? Is this another example of man's greed? A Better Light Bulb It dawned on me that a simple rectifier for our lighting system could increase a light bulbs lifetime dramtically. It's occured to me that increasing from 60 mertz to 60 megahertz might increase bulb life. Certainly LEDs would last longer than lightbulbs since they give off no heat. Anything would be better it seems. These old monopolized inventions seem to be everywhere. When I say I could invent good device every week of the year, I'm not lying. Look around you. What couldn't be improved? What is wrong with using a Spork? Why does everything motorized item have its motor? Why don't we have 3D TV, they have 3D Jesus pictures at Walmart? Why do all toilets look exactly the same? Exactly why do we have to have a front yard? Why is toilet paper white? Why is underwear white? lol. |
07/08/2005 19:43:04 Ideas Intellectual Property | Fri |||||||||||||||||||
Information from an expert (Rob Allred's sister, Jari Brooks) Intellectual Property - The right to protect a creative idea. It isn't specific. Four kinds: patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets. They may be sold or assigned. Patents - Instruct on how to make an invention. Good only for 20 years. Copyrights - Books, software, movies. Good for 70 years, no registration required. Trademarks - Protect reputations. A symbol, word or phrase. Registration last 10 years. Trade Secrets - Protect formulas, techniques, programs, information lists. The rights expire when the information is released. The US patent office recieves 1,000 patent applications a day. Patents are a good way to protect an invention. Enforcing Patent Rights must be done by the owner. I letter stating to discontinue use, or a license may be sold to violators. Intellectual property insurance may be obtained to. Whatever, the enforcement is up to the patent owner. WOW - Buying the web address WWW.ProcterAndGamble.Com is Evidence of Bad Faith according to the document I'm reading. Buying a name like that is considered malicious. |
07/06/2005 03:02:45 Ideas Hair Robot - the hair stylist | Wed |||||||||||||||||||
Invention Idea - I was chatting with Rober's roomie, John, about the "Flowbee" I think we came up with a great idea. You'd swear we were high, but I wasn't. We visualized a computerized chair you sit in that would cut your hair. It looked like one of those those hair drying chairs at the salon, but instead of blowing your hair, it would vacuum your hair straight out away from your head. Then it would cut your hair to whatever pattern you selected on the computer. This idea sounds insane, but if you think about it alittle, its excellent. |
07/01/2005 23:18:12 Ideas Time Travel - Im just babbling notes. | Fri |||||||||||||||||||
Is that really possible? Seeing into the past We know that's possible. Pick out any star. The closest star we can see is 4 light years away. So, the light we see at the very minimum is 4 years old. We are looking at the star's past. If there was a mirror, 10 light years away that reflected light from this planet, we could see our Earths past, as it was 20 years ago. Changing the past If that could be done by mankind, it would have been done in the future already. Mankind makes and breaks its own rules every day. There's evidence of particles that travel backwards into time. Isn't it possible the transmitter was actually acting as a receiver, and they botched the experiment. Mathematical formulas almost always follow the observation. So, they're saying if I aim a mu-meson flashlight at a wall, the light might appear there yesterday. Hmmm. Well, the ground is travelling in a circle at 1,000 mph, but I'm sure those lab boys realized that. If these particles could be emitted and controlled, wouldn't we be sending ourselves information from the future already. I'm sure, 200 years from now, our science will look like Petroglyphs or caveman drawings. Travelling into the future The moment we travel into the future, it becomes the past. If we froze ourselves, we would travel into a future in what would might appear to be an instant. However, if we can't go back into the past, we've simply existed normally. No laws of nature would have been violated. I love science fiction, but everything that we've done can be pretty easily understood. Nothing we've done is more amazing to me, than a blade of grass. |
06/17/2005 11:30:02 Ideas Water Tower - I created a device that saves 30% on | Fri |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
My system is based on already proven principles. Commercial air conditioners (250 tons and above) have used this principle for decades, all over the world. The general idea, is to drop the ambient air temperature across an air conditioners condenser coils. When a liquid evaporates, it absorbs heat. Freon and water both share this property. Water evaporation is the basic principle used in swamp coolers. Freon evaporation is basic principle used inside our air conditioners. Crash Course: In an enclosed system, such as an air conditioner, the heat from inside the house is absorbed by the freon inside the evaporator coils. Low pressure causes freon to boil at low temperatures. When the freon boils, it is absorbing heat. The freon gas is then squeezed into a liquid inside the condenser coils. When this happens, it gives off its heat. This causes heat to dumped into the outside air. The cooler it is outside, the less energy it takes to convert the gas into liquid. This is where cooling the condenser coils with water comes in. Our air conditioners depend on air flow to cool the condenser coils to dissipate the heat from the liquid freon, but water flow is far superior. Water absorbs the heat in the condensor better because it has more mass to absorb it. In addition to that, it boils easily at sea level, and no, it doesn't have to be 212 degrees. It's boiling causes it to absorb even more heat as it changes its state from liquid to gas. For anyone who doesn't know it alread, water is one of the best refrigerants on this planet. It is not used because of its corrosive properties. In Las Vegas, hotels use water towers for their commercial air conditioning systems. While my idea is nothing new, its application is. For less than $200, a Las Vegas homeowner will be able to save $100-$200 a month in temperatures over 100 degrees. The following is a proposed plan. It's very rough, but, I'm going build it on 6/2/2005 (tommorrow). Basic Layout, Nuts and Bolts |
