Also keep in mind (1:30) friction is still present, there is always resistance if there is movement. Friction involving matter such as atoms, electrons, and photons still affect any moving object. Our sun and our planets are a great example.
ruthlessandevil There is still a considerable amount of friction, those magnetic gears are not just floating in space, check out the video again and maybe you can spot where the friction is presenting itself
Core5 MagLev bearings are indeed a thing but they're really only effective if you don't try to rotate the axis of spin. I also have to wonder how much torque you can apply to these things before they slip a pole. The greater the applied magnetic force, the more disastrous that would be.
BogiesBR yes theres the node around which they rotate, theres also the likelihood of slip once your drove any significant torque with it, and theres cost implications vs gained efficiency to think about.Its almost as if it was a joke, sweetheart,
The gears won't be frictionless due to the magnetic fields interacting (they would be 'mechanically frictionless'). They would however be near silent aside from bearing noise.
Blackout Video Actually not noiseless. These magnetic gears will suffer from cogging as well as mechanical gears, maybe even more. There is a small "dead" area between the poles. As long there is no load, these gears might be relatively scilent, but under load they might make noises which is caused by the difference in force which will force the shaft back and forth perpendicular to its axis for each time a new pole is attracted to the other. This will cause vibrations, a humm, in the surrounding structure, which again cause noise. However, the noise would not consist of high frequency components as those you hear with two regular steel gears. More soft noise, I would say.
Next question: can the patterned magnetizing of elements in these arrays be done by an electromagnet, in real time? That way, a surface would not just have static custom-programmed properties, but will be able to adjust on the fly. That could make for really interesting programmable modular robot type things.
I was thinking the same thing. It seems like these could become motors. Or solid, neodymium spheres could act like BB8's head and become self motorized joints. So cool.
That actually isn't too complicated, because the polarity of DC voltage applied just needs to switched to switch the pole of the electromagnet. And today's power electronic converter and switches should make it possible at the tiny-electromagnet level.
Don't rush them they can't just make a hoverboard straight away and not onky magnets can do the work of the hoverboard. Do you need to wait. If you can't wait, then MAKE A FUCKING HOVERBOARD YOU'RE FUCKING SELF.
I love this tech. I come back to watch this demo vid every couple of years, but just discovered my favorite moment. At 1:30, one of the guys in the back drops stuffs his face, but drops something on the floor. Waste not, want not! Of course he picks it up and eats it.
im not sure ae, this just seems to be like normal permanent magnets changing poles depending on proximity. And you can see how in the triangle set of magnets that he had, needed the stabilising prongs on each of the three corners so when they were in between the repelling and attracting state which made them seem like they were floating. Superconductors use quantum locking which lock the flux lines in a perpetual state, i also don't think these things can repel a weight 20000 times their weight.
I've thought of this and drew multiple designs with examples in theory. I just lack the funding. So I looked up if magnets could be programmable, then ran into this vid.
'had a insight that no one had ever though of before', 'we've done something no one has done before'.... He's not the first at all to think of magnets interacting with waves, that's basically what any scientist would do ... Cool stuff nonetheless
The thing is, they patented the manufacturung process and concept, and stand to make a substantial amount of green back. Especially since the military have also taken an interest.
Mitch Donovan www.coolmagnetman.com/maghow.htm Great article discussing how the atom's electron orientation and the overall orientation of the atom both effect the magnetic field producing magnets.
"frictionless" hmm Sweeping, how about shaft bearings, I am not convinced that the one turn of the gear there is no electrical/magnetic field which is working against the turn.
1:01 for those wondering why the pins have to be there, there’s a theorem that basically says it’s impossible to suspend stationary magnets on their own. No matter how you orient them you’ll never be able to get it to float freely..:(
Have you perchance considered trying to emulate a single pole magnet? It would no doubt need to be spherical but assembled in such a way that would feature one pole on the inside and the other on the outside of the structure. What would be interesting would be if the outer magnetic pole could be made variable in intensity. I don't know if it would be within your capability but if you could print a spherical magnet with a single pole around its' surface. I know that the U.S. Navy some years back at China Lake Naval Weapons Center, Ca. was doing research into subatomic monopole magnets that had been theorized there and were looking for a macroscopic version for testing purposes. I would enjoy the opportunity to play with a few of those myself.
Well, not to seem like a jerk, but I've seen a similar "repels at large distance, snaps at close distance" demo years back on a science fair - it was composed of tiny little separate magnets held together in a simple frame, so is this really a something new?
There‘s even a magnet toy where you‘d fill in the dots of a flat disk with tiny magnets, and the disk will repel and attract other magnets at the same time. This is because there was a big magnet in the centre of the disk arranged in opposite polarity with the tiny magnets. This programmable magnet however, is only slightly different. Instead of packing tiny mangnets together on a structure with specific orientation, they magnetize the metal that way.
Take a look at the magnetic viewer at 4:05. One big magnet is actually a combination of many tiny magnets. Absolutely NOT an invention. And we‘ve known this since we discovered magnets
Would love to get my hands on that printing gear. Could easily make opposing magnets that spin when you push them together . Crazy secret world. The US Navy gots all the toys
This is amazing but I cant find information about it .. How much weight can it support and how much tolerance (vibration) can it give before it breaks the locking ? I'm imagining a car with frictionless rims. Does it absorb the vibrations and shocks ? how much distance can you have between them ?
so, can those printable magnets be amplified, to increase the strength of the magnetization? I think if you could vary the strength in polarization, individually, between small points, it might allow for more complex designs? With more in depth mechanical application?
Since waves are a side effect of pressure on many pieces of "a substance", I'm curious about their head engineer, he's clearly modeled a working theory on how magnetic particles interact. I'm fairly certain it's all just pressure systems on the micro, but that's my limit, really curious if he's wrote a book yet.
feitingschatten1 youre thinking of mechanical waves, there are other types of waves for which that definition wont fit (electromagnetic waves, hypothetical gravitational waves). also i think this guy gave an understandably crude explanation of whatever his partner came up with so take it with a grain of salt.
I have been reading the comments, your comment leads me to assume you have an idea of just how earth changing this tech will be. I'm no expert, but I do know that electromagnetic fields & / or magnets are a key element in all modern tech, and the traditional way we use magnetism is very inefficient in that only a small portion of the field is used. If you or anyone reading this is an engineering brain, think of unique ways to use the tech, stack up patents, and be rich.
Great! Keep and eye over your shoulder for military government techs coming to you for limiting the utilization of these technologies for public use! I am sure it is inevitable that you will exceed farther than many in this field. Even those in the government of the world. Love your work! Will defend your disposition! Thank you for your advancements! #grantscankill

Frictionless gears? Remember, gears are for power transmission so, low friction, yes, but also low power transmission. Not knocking, as there are definitely some interesting applications that will come of this...
My name is moooonshinnne If you start with a magnet shaped like a shaft. Use the Archimedes screw style. With the Tesla turbine blades. At 5 to 10 degrees angles.. I call it the Archtesla magnetic shaft.. Design it to fit inside water pipe.. Put a coil on the outside of the water pipe.. You've got a water generator every time you turn the faucet on... There's enough power in the oceans tidal flow alone to power the world... Not to mention small streams and rivers
Imagine an AR that has all its functions updated to run using this. Imagine the rate of fire... |>----/;==_===--- The trigger/hammer mechanism could be replaced with a magnet that activates a reciprocating hammer, housed in a programmed environment. Magazine switches could be entirely replaced with magnetic locks, "repel/snap". Seen it before. Always interesting. Have they released hovering disc gears that turn perpetually yet?
Theoria Apophasis has a great youtube and he is Ken Wheeler who wrote a book called Uncovering the Missing Secrets of Magnetism. you can read it for free in archive dot c.
This is just stupid. You still have Friction in between the magnet and the case holding the magnet in place. Most likley you have less friction in a regullar gear.
FramedDiablo Not thinking outside that box... need a new way of thinking with a new technology right? Notice how we haven’t heard about this in years? It’s a substantial invention.
those are toy models... obviously if you were going for frictionless (ignoring the relatively negligible magnetic friction) then you'd suspend those two gears so they aren't rubbing against another surface, which is a pretty trivial thing to do.
You didnt PROGRAM anything, they used specific complex discharge coils in creating multipolar "magnets"
Also keep in mind (1:30) friction is still present, there is always resistance if there is movement. Friction involving matter such as atoms, electrons, and photons still affect any moving object. Our sun and our planets are a great example.
Also, Foucault's currents could cause a significant loss of energy, I'm just not sure how much.
You just made lubricants obsolete. Well, for mechanics anyway. KY will probably still sell.
ruthlessandevil There is still a considerable amount of friction, those magnetic gears are not just floating in space, check out the video again and maybe you can spot where the friction is presenting itself
BogiesBR Maybe they could program a magnetic bearing to support the 'gears' and allow them to float freely.

BogiesBR yes theres the node around which they rotate, theres also the likelihood of slip once your drove any significant torque with it, and theres cost implications vs gained efficiency to think about.Its almost as if it was a joke, sweetheart,
+ruthlessandevil You'd also need to eliminate any sources of heat these magnets will encounter, because heat has the ability to demagnetize metals.

Nopiw i got that vibe too
appv12 same here
And its not competing with oil so the inventor won't just suddenly disappear. ;)
That's awesome and I'm really happy that they showed basically how they designed them.
Pistons. Make Magnet Pistons.
WE GET IT, NOW MAKE A FUCKING HOVERBOARD.

Have they had an ipo yet? This would be a great investment
I've thought of this and drew multiple designs with examples in theory. I just lack the funding. So I looked up if magnets could be programmable, then ran into this vid.
Charlie Kelly would be so excited about this
John Searl was the first to think of imprinting a waveform on a magnet!
True that! So valid prior art?
Agree. I wonder if they can program a sphere magnet.
I. E. a bearing
where do i get one of those magnet printers from?

We invented programmable magnets so we called them "programmable magnets".
YEAH BITCH, MAGNETS!!

These aren't frictionless gears as they are being housed in a body that rubs all around the magnet
Frictionless gears for true stealth, military industrial complex you scary.

That is wrong. You can replicate Superconductor Levitation w/o needing Liquid Nitrogen. You just have to do it correctly.
How do they work?
Is it now safe to put them next to computers?
why is this not yet being utilized commercially?
This will give birth to a million new TH-cam videos of people making "perpetual motion" machines. Using programmable magnets.
This is insanely clever, im sure someone said this coudnt be done

How do I buy shares in this company
2:20 haha waves and magnets😂 Our moon is a great example
Wait did they just solve the PROBLEM of superconductors? or find a way to get superconductor properties without being at extremely low temperatures.
i see potential for free energy with this technology.
Aaron Mackay I hope your joking
That’s impossible because it’s violates the laws of thermodynamics
Depends. In a LIQUID state. Maybe.
Solids do not allow the Fields w/in to interact w/ one another.

Muy bueno. Ahora algo que vuele!
Where is this tech its been 8 fucking years
military application? thats a scary thought.
Kind of funny, controlable magnets have been around for awhile. Controled by eleltricity
Damn it dude cut with the chase. Wtf is it use for and how does it have impac in the world.
build badass motors and gererators
Magnetic bricks will be shat
Great for a new artificial heart.
Black swan event?
This way of using magnets, can make a motor to run it self without any out side source.
+dan atwell Eeeeh no. Y'know, because reasons
And laws of thermodynamics
+Carlos Pérez I hear what you are saying, The magnets and cams and springs would make the item work.
Take a minute and think about it.
+dan atwell For a bit, but it would eventually lose energy and stop. Especially if you're trying to power something with it.
