Abstract: Flywheel assembly for powering an electrical generator including a flywheel connecting a small gear and larger second gear. The flywheel, small first gear, larger second gear, all bearings, rotor and stator are connected via an axle. The path of the flywheel is restricted to a circular or other geometrically confined area through the use of bearings, bearing races and other support structures. The fixed ring gears create and maintain the rotational motion of the flywheel so that it always spins in the same direction, and are positioned on either the outside or inside of the confined flywheel assembly path or area. The positioning of the ring gears is consistent with each other so as to maintain continuous rotation of the flywheel in the same direction at all times. In either event, the flywheel always returns to the original point of origin. On the downward path, utilizing the smaller gear, the flywheel travels down the path and picks up speed with each rotation, storing energy in the flywheel as it goes.

Abstract: A wingless vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) vehicle has a main body including airfoil sections on either side of a central module in which a load may be carried. Articulated forward thrust systems are mounted on a leading edge of the main body and lateral members are located on either side of the main body and form winglets. At least one rear vertical-thrust system may also be provided and, in one embodiment, is mounted in an aperture aft of the central module. The forward thrust systems transition between a vertical flight configuration and a horizontal flight configuration. The lateral members are configured as both vortex-damping members and also to channel backwash from the forward thrust systems over the airfoil formed by the main body.

Abstract: A motion planner of an autonomous vehicle's computer system uses reconfigurable collision detection architecture hardware to perform a collision assessment on a planning graph for the vehicle prior to execution of a motion plan. For edges on the planning graph, which represent transitions in states of the vehicle, the system sets a probability of collision with a dynamic object in the environment based at least in part on the collision assessment. Depending on whether the goal of the vehicle is to avoid or collide with a particular dynamic object in the environment, the system then performs an optimization to identify a path in the resulting planning graph with either a relatively high or relatively low potential of a collision with the particular dynamic object. The system then causes the actuator system of the vehicle to implement a motion plan with the applicable identified path based at least in part on the optimization.
