Michigan State University associate professor of mechanical engineering Norbert Mueller describes his Wave Disk Generator, for which he has received a $2.5 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy to build a prototype new engine and generator technology that can dramatically improve efficiencies and reduce costs of electric hybrid vehicles.

  • Awesome idea, but it's still fossil fuel.

  • Thumbs up if you would like some kind of update from Norbert!

  • @SamTheDragon31 You say you don't need to give an example because history gives us plenty. Please, name one case where the oil industry killed a inventor for a product. Robert Kearns had his windshield wiper design get stolen by ford. They didn't steal/ kill him for it. Try again.

  • @Drjusmar I dont need to give an example, history already has the proof of other brilliant minds being killed/bought off in the US because it would do harm to the oil tycoons and benefit the good of the people. The only person who has won a lawsuit and lived to tell the story is Robert Kearns for windshield wipers.

  • @SamTheDragon31 Give one example of this happening. just 1.

  • Sad to think this brilliant man will be shot/killed or bought off by the oil companies or like the other man that successfully converted a V-6 gasoline engine into a retrofitted hydrogen engine and tried to market suddenly died from "natural causes".

  • Vid posted Oct 2009, where is a demo model powering a car? WHERE IS IT?!

    SHOW ME THE MONEY!!!

    "Shockwave"? You get shockwaves from super sonic planes. You mean to tell me that rotor goes transonic? Show me the physics! Show me the money! 2.9million from DOE to discredited R&D.

  • Hmmm...looks like a glorified Salad Shooter...

  • Research before you comment. This device is still in the developmental stages and is still favored by US government funding amoung other interests and contributors.

    Here is an interview from Michigan State University Oct. 2011: (won't let me put web address here), so websearch: 'Michigan State University Alumni Association' and when on their actual site type in "The Wave Of The Future" to get to the actual article.

    Let's hope 'the powers that be' keep interested and MOVE ON THIS!

  • Kinda sounds like the Mazda rotary engine
