Exactly like I have stated can a Heisman's principle ever be overuled, be technology be created to account for HUP that can actually give measurements for the position and velocity of objects.

I am uncertain about that. The moment I take a clear position on it I just can't tell where it's going to take me. My friend says he knows exactly where he's headed with it, but frankly I can't tell where he's coming from.

lol! :D

No. Momentum and position (and energy and time) are conjugate variables, and their wave functions are Fourier transforms of each other. The uncertainty relationship is inherent in that.

 

 

The best you can do is make one of the two uncertainties involved very large and in a circumstance where that doesn't matter. Then the other variable's uncertainty will be small. This is known as a squeezed state. You can also be oscillating between the two conditions, and do your experiment when the uncertainty of the desired uncertainty is small.

of course their is always the option we are completely wrong and that everything which has been said before is completely incorrect then the uncertainty priciple can be ignorened, but as stated above as far as we know,

 

uncertainty in momentum * uncertainty in position = planks const / (4 pi)

 

Is the BEST we can ever achieve...

although if we did/could determin somethings momentum and position it'd be very interesting to see what happened to it.

 

although as said it is impossible.

That is unlikely, given the correleation with results. It is fairly likely that it IS wrong, but only in certain situations on with a certain level of accuracy. For example, GR doesn't make Newtonian gravity inapplicable in all situations.
