Some kind of magnetic crowbar or lever..........needs an offset fulcrum to setup a leverage. Pluck the earth's magnetic lines of force and let them ring like a guitar string? Tesla was really interested in the rings he saw from thunderstorms and specifically the impulse function so beautifully demonstrated in lightning discharges.

Hi all!
Another shot heard 'round the world, eh?

And congratulations to your Paradyme shift!
Now the next set of minds will come into position to further the progress.

Yes, you can put open source equal to the personal computer, the printing press, the Gutenberg Bible, water wheel, gunpowder, & fire. It is not a weapon.
As Mflynn44 posted 'We are on the brink'. I don't see any arguments with that!

@jason, great circuit.
@tomas, it's all very sloppy.
@Loki, my whole thread is babble!
@Spherenot, you can lay little rolls of screen cross wise as you fill in with the foam for air passages or find a mechanical/material solution something simpler than that. Cooling is necessary, thanks. I will put that in the 3d pic.
@others working anonymous. Thanks. We are a great team and this is the greatest project on the planet! Tesla would be proud. I know Steven Mark is. And I am a wreck! We went over the 1 year deadline by 3 days. Not bad guys. Thanks Tao.

You guys have fun. I am going to sit a few days and further design the production model as I watch all of this just explode and as all of you grow. And I always accept input. Now it is your turn not to sleep. I think I am in the best place now.

Thank you, Steven Mark, for changing our world.

So I like to think of formus, such as this one, as a public domain engineering notebook. Open source engineering....works for software........will work here also.

Works 4 me 2!

Has anyone looked into the analogue nervous-network that I posted here:

http://www.overunity.com/index.php/topic,1959.0.html

It may be a robust analogue method of feedback control.  Intended to control the gate and speed of low-cost walking robots, I think that it may be adaptable to control the feedback loop that we are discussing here.

I recall that if a robot leg met an obstacle in it's path the leg motor resistance, (or inductance,) increased and caused the controller to skip ahead to the next sequence, thereby quickening the pace and spending more time moving the opposite leg in the other direction without the obstacle.  The 4-position gate sequence might also change, on it's own, from a two-pulse mode to a one-pulse mode in response to multiple obstacles.

I saw Mark Tilden jangle his key ring on the nervous-net circuitry, as the robot was moving.  It responded with twitches and such while he was at it for a few seconds.  When he stopped, the damned thing just picked-up where it left off and started walking again.  What is the definition of robust?

Instead of leg motor coils we have just coils.  Instead of obstacles we have kicks.  Too many kicks is like too many obstacles, time to change gate and/or frequency.

I do not have the electrical background to make the exact connection between these two ideas, but pese does.  He was asking me about this yesterday.  What do you think, pese, will a "connection" be beneficial here?

Few things are more annoying than that ear piercing squeal that occurs when someone passes a microphone too close to a speaker. You usually try to avoid this by positioning your speakers away from the area where the mics will be used. Unfortunately, this is not always possible.

The solution is to incorporate an electronic feedback controller into your sound system. This device will detect feedback frequencies within a fraction of a second.........
