khaled Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 I know this is crazy, but what if ... I created an electron gun that charge high amount of electrons, then it discharge them in stream of connected packets of electrons ... electron: O electrical transcriber: |XXXX| ------------------------------------------------------ :::::::=========] [gun] OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO |XXXX| :::::::=========] ------------------------------------------------------ i once read that the American scientist Tesla tried to transmit electricity through air ... any ideas ..?

insane_alien Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 you mean like a cathode ray tube? and wireless transmission of electricity used radiowaves, not electrons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greippi Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 There was actually an article in New Scientist this year on the wireless transmission of electricity. Another possibility, other than radio waves, is to fire an infrared laser at a photovoltic cell to convert the energy back in to electricity.

khaled Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share Posted April 23, 2010 wireless, power towers, infrared laser, .. still there is no idea on how to transmit electricity in air without affecting livings, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greippi Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 I forgot about magnetic induction! This is used for charging electric toothbrushes, but at the moment only works at VERY close distances (mm range). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forufes Posted April 23, 2010 Share Posted April 23, 2010 well in red alert 2 there were those tesla towers, when soldiers get close they get zapped by lightning.. i think it's possible if you over charge the towers and have the ground insulating and level enough for there to be no discharge until a conductive "pointy" guy comes along..and then....BBQ.. IOW, potential difference (in voltage) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobz Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Take a look at this using resonant energy transfer.I has little to do with guns though.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
