This is an engine that uses magnets instead of spark plugs to create the combustion to power the vehicle. It works by placing magnets at the top of the cylinder and on the piston with the opposite polarities to create the down force that spark plugs do. Have the magnet powered by a computer to fire them in the proper sequence to keep the engine running. Let me know what you think. This is as simply as I can explain my concept.

Build a world war I type zeppelin with inner airbags,call "bladders", fill with helium (not hydrogen). Have the outer airbag made with a flexable "solar-panel" cloth, electronic wirer to in-ship storage batteries. Have these batteries run VTOL propeller engine (simulated to MV-22 "Osprey"), to propel and steer the zeppelin. Underneath the belly of the zeppelin have the cramping system.

Ever wonder what it would be like to have automatic tire inflation on board while driving? Here is my idea. The average car tire is usually only a few pounds over or under the limit in terms of air pressure. I was thinking of a portable device that would latch onto each outside tire rim, using something like a powerful magnet or equivalent to stay attached. This device would consist of a small DC motor, Solar Panel, and rechargeable AAA batteries. I haven't yet determined the...

The problem that I have with a navigation unit is that I am never comfortable with the location of the unit. So, I propose a unit that has no wires and the touch unit plugs directly into the power outlet. The touch unit sends a signal to a unit you can clip to your sun visor. The unit on your sun visor will project a display on the upper part of your windshield.

Since gasoline rates seem to fluctuate more frequently than any other commodity, I think being able to "Lock In" to a rate for a given period of time, might be an attractive choice for many people. I'm not yet sure how the cost would be figured, but it would serve to provide some sort of insurance for higher gas prices. Perhaps it could be part of some sort of investment choice for stockholders of a particular oil company. Or, a way for non-stockholders to obtain something like a...

One of the most disappointing things about cold winter days is all the ice you have to scrape off your car just to go to school/work/extra-curricular activities. Not only is this a pain for myself to do, but when I get on the road, I see many new, inexperienced drivers who are just too lazy to scrape more than two square centimeters off their windshield, which poses an immense safety risk to anyone driving. In order to decrease the happening of this, I propose a heated ice scraper. It...

Why not use the rotation of the wheels to power the cpu in a car and the air conditioning. Using the same technology that already exists in the creation of energy through water or wind turbines.

I feel it's time to step way back and re-think our entire transportation system. Mono rail trains or public transport is nice, but most people don't bother because they still have to get to the depot. If we use the technology we have, we could run a single track everywhere there is now pavement, right to every garage. Wow you say, but how much do we spend now to pave and repave? What sold me is the endless and amazing list of benefits to this: No more drunk drivers because a computer...

When you are stuck in traffic, brake lights on the car in front of you only tell half of the story. How often have you accelerated to catch up with the car in front of you only to have to slam on brakes because the car in front of you was not accelerating but getting ready to brake. whew! close call. Well, if you are paying attention, there shouldn't need to be a reason for close calls. This simple innovation of just adding a "green" colored light on the back of cars to...

Think of all the people out there who drive without a license (underage kids) or with a suspended license (Paris Hilton). Well why not have this thing in your car, somewhere discreet in your dashboard or where ever, where you have to insert you drivers license into it to activate the car. If you don't have a license you won't be able to operate a car. If you have a license it will only work on cars registered under your name so you can't break into a car and steal it. Or if you don't mind...
