Wireless Electric Power

I got about 6.5 MW wireless WAAYYY before MIT did this wimpy 60 watt 'child's play'.

I was gone for 4 months and came home and told my wife, from 4 meters distance, "You look like you put on 5 kilos, dear". The frequency and amplitude was right and I can promise you there was little or no damping. The last thing I remember was being on the threshold of resonance for about 4.2 milliseconds. I can't remember anything from 4.21 ms forward!

This phenomena I term WiMegaDufusity (wireless total stupidity).

It sounds great! Even that tumor I'm growing out of my side should be large enough by the time this is mainstream technology to act as a prop to keep me from falling down and breaking a hip.

Ya know that after all the hysteria regarding electromagnetic fields is said and done, there is still evidence for it... The police officers that grew tumors in their brains that were exposed to shoulder mounted radios. That's why almost all police department radios are now worn on the belt and provide an extension cord to the shoulder mic.

Considering the power radiated, all I can say is: "You first!"

Hm,

I'm surprised they don't mention Tesla's work as it's not like they thought first of magnetically coupled resonance and wireless transmission of electric power.

I think there might be a difference between Tesla's work and this technique.

As far as I know, Tesla saturated the environment with high frequency electricity. These guys are using a specific harmonic, short-range, magnetic coupling. Though I would be loathed to take either into my home.

It seems to be so terrifying... What may happen if you are standing inside this powerfull magnetic field???... What if something in our bodie is in the same resonant frequency (e.g. our brain)???... We are not sure yet about the hazardeous effects that the "low power" radiation of the mobile phones cause to our health... And I mean, mostly, the long-term effects... So, even if they have stayed inside this magnetic field for a sufficient time and they felt nothing (and let's suppose that they did such a thing) how they can be sure for the long-term effects???...

I am excited as it introduces many new frontier technologies that have to this point been topics of sci-fi writers imaginations. As with any new re-use technology there will be a trade off of safety along with utility. An example would be the reluctance of people to include electrical wiring in thier homes despite the benifits, when it was first introduced. How many folks have been zapped since then ?

What I'd like to know is "Who is the lady wearing the fluorescent bikini under the black light?"

I would be interested to know how you keep this from radiating at MHz frequencies.

As the lightning is a phenomenon of wireless electricity travelling through the atmospheric media. Creation of little man made lightning is fine as long as we control it and manage so that it would be suitable for human being and environment.

This wireless transfer of energy via magnetic field application is no surprise. In the early days dealing with electric vehicles' battery charging issues, this technique was proposed. If any person interested, they can see the US patent 5,311,973 and 5,595,271 to learn more of it.

Is this news because of the power level? Otherwise the Japanese have used the same technique to charge Hotel Room wireless phones for years. imding@usa.com

What's with MIT? Isn't the whole wireless patent (awarded to Tesla in the 1940's, sorry about that Marconi) based on resonant devices, one transmitter and one receiver? Tesla illuminated his entire laboratory wirelessly on a daily basis almost a hundred years ago.

Damaging devices: Probably not. Any witricity receiver design would surely include an excessive power interrupt -- mayhap a zener diode circuit or some other avalanche-based device.

Weapons: Again, probably not. During WWII, Japan experimented with tightly beamed microwave energy as a battlefield weapon. They couldn't get around the inverse square law (twice as far away = 1/4 the source energy [see spherical trigonometry]). The best that they could do with antennas too large to be portable, thousands of kilowatts and distances measured in only a few yards was to annoy the test subjects (slaves) somewhat.

Incidentally, they were working on an atomic bomb also, but abandoned their research because they couldn't see a method of extracting U238 from U235 that wouldn't saturate their industrial system, leaving insufficient resouces for conventional war production. The microwave method seemed a bit more promising to them.

Did you ever see plans of the NAZI atomic bomb? The first thing you notice is it's a donut-shaped device about 30 feet across, several feet tall, and weighing I don't know how many several tons.

Again nothing new.

We had a local farmer that powered his whole farm for 15 years with a coil of wire in his mow that was 100 feet from the main transmission lines.
