This is completely disruptive to the energy industry if it can scale! Finally electricity can be made from evaporating water: An immensely powerful yet invisible force pulls water from Earth to the top of the tallest redwood and delivers snow to the tops of the Himalayas. Yet despite the power of evaporating water, its potential…
World’s Thinnest Lightbulb Made With Graphene
Finally the world’s thinnest light bulb! This is pretty cool: This movie clip schematically shows the light emission from graphene and radiation spectrum engineering by strong optical interference effect. Vibration of graphene during light emission is due to the flexural mode of graphene at high temperature. Led by Young Duck Kim, a postdoctoral research scientist…
They’re 3D Printing a Bridge in Amsterdam
3D printing has taken the world by storm and usually is most common in producing miniatures and small plastic parts for simple devices. Now in Amsterdam they are very ambitious and going to try to 3D print a bridge. “We research and develop groundbreaking, cost-effective robotic technology with which we can 3D-print beautiful, functional objects…
A Drone Recharging System for Airships
The drone frenzy is out of control and will likely be a huge part of commerce, rescue missions, surveillance and other applications. Apparently Boeing has taken notice and here is some info on a patent they just filed: Boeing has patented a system for recharging drones in the air, overcoming a long-recognised roadblock in drone…
Laser Microscope DIY at Home Video
This is a cool laser microscope you can make at home and study things around you easily and inexpensively. Here is a bit more on the video: Simple microscope using a laser pointer and a magnifying glass. This differs from the water drop method and produces results more like a traditional microscope with enlarging via…
10 Tesla Inventions and Things You May Not Know About
Nikola Tesla is now being recognized as one of the best electrical engineers ever. Of course there is the famous car company named after him and some really cool youtube videos discussing his work. Some of the most well known ones are the Tesla coil videos showing how to make electricity shoot out of copper…
3D Metallic Plating Device for 3D Printed Objects
Orbit1.co which recently launched a kickstarter project is absolutely rad if this thing works. The 3D printing revolution is just getting started and one of the neat parts and more expensive is the metal plating of parts. Companies such as X one and others get a hefty sum for plating and 3D printing/manufacturing metal parts. …
He Made an 84 Watt “Death Star” At Home..Seriously
Darth Vader would be jealous… A mini “death star” was made at home by this experimenter and it works. Some spend their time teaching science and physics and others come up with tests and inventions. In the case of LaserGadgets, he does both. Not only does he have an archive of home experiments, he is…
Invention Collects Moisture From the Air and Turns it Into Drinking Water
If this thing works well it has to be one of the awesomest inventions! Here is an intro about the Fontus: Fontus is a self-filling water bottle for your bicycle. This device collects the moisture contained in the air, condenses it and stores it as safe drinking water. Powered by solar cells, it can harvest…
Guy Makes a Laser Cannon at Home
This guy made a laser cannon prototype at home. This is cool so thought we’d post it. I’m not necessarily what you would use this for aside from protecting Jedis and good folks throughout the universe against the dark side. (although that seems reasonable). No matter what do not try this at home without the…
Mr. Teslonian Builds a Monster Wilmhurst Generator at Home
Here is another cool home power generator. We have explored different types on the site such as one hydropowered generator which was configured in someone’s backyard stream. Mr. Teslonian in this video builds a Wimhurst generator. Here is an excerpt about the video: This is my home made Wimshurst high voltage generator in action. This…
Floating Iron Man Wow This is Cool
Ok this is pretty rad a floating, glowing iron man! Where can I get one of these? According to the poster of this video he had this to say: I managed to buy this from a reseller when this was first released at Toy Soul 2014 in Hong Kong, correctly there are only 200 in…
Guy makes a water heater…claims it uses no electricity!
The search for free or super efficient energy is a hot topic. Many home inventors and scientists have experimented with magnetic Tesla coils and harnessing the power of wind, solar and even streams in their own back yards. In this video the home inventor claims to have made a water heater that uses no electricity! …
The Magnetic Motor Debate Continues
The quest for a true perpetual motion and energy machine continues. Many home and youtube inventors have mentioned the lost works of Nikola Tesla and also made come cool Tesla coils that actually shoot lightning. Is there something there? And the super strong neodymium magnets have been the core of many of these home devices. …
Hoverboard demonstration at a skate park…is this for real?
This is a pretty cool experimental hoverboard. The very well known Hendo Board uses the principle of Lenz’s law and uses magnetic repulsion and only works on a metallic surface. What is neat about this hoverboard is is works on concrete. Even if it isn’t as smooth as the other, it literally can work on…
Finally There is a Working Jetpack…Absolutely Awesome
Is this for real an actual jetpack that works? Wow! In this ted talk they show you something pretty amazing that will likely change the future. Here is an excerpt about the video: Strapped to a jet-powered wing, Yves Rossy is the Jetman — flying free, his body as the rudder, above the Swiss Alps…
How to Create a Resonance Water Fuel Cell
This is a cool video showing a home experiment displaying some of Stanley Meyer’s principles with a water fuel cell. Here is a bit more background on what is happening: Steps to achieve resonance: 1. Low Frequency (LF) “Gated” Generator is OFF. 2. Adjusting High Frequency (HF) Generator to reach a state of resonance. 3.…
Incredible Vortex Technology Made at Home – A Must See
Ok ready to see a vortex frame and coil built at home? This is absolutely awesome and here is a brief intro on what is being made here from the home experimenter: This is the first vortex coil I have made. This vortex coil has 11 frames with 12 slots in each giving 11 spirals…
Fuel Efficient Car That Only Costs $0.02 per Mile
Ok is this actually possible? An inventor apparently disrupts (or so the video claims) the automotive industry with an incredibly fuel efficient car: Tyler Griffin reports on a 19 year-old who decided to build an electric car to save money on parking and gas at his high school. Mark King is the young inventor behind…
Car That Doesn’t Use Gas and Runs on Air?
wait…what? Finally a car that can run on air? You have to be joking right? The maker of this video thinks this is possible and here is more of the description he gives: An amazing affordable auto that runs on air! Is this really possible? AIRPod is the culmination of MDI studies on pollution and…
