Emergent Technology
Below are links to information on emergent technologies that are demonstrating significant improvements over current conventional.
Energy Efficiency
Phi ratio (see Fibonacci sequence) design principles are being used to result in highly efficient technologies in various sectors. See:
LANR/LENR ('Cold Fusion')
Since the days of Fleischmann and Pons, things have progressed. there are several groups getting replication of results and more is being understood as to how to maintain (nuclear) reactions (there appears to be actual element transmutation occurring, rather than 'fusion'). Even MIT has had several conferences on this topic. Could this be a new source of safe and abundant energy - and with no dangerous radiation by-products?

Magnetic Pulse / Field Motors
Magnetic pulse / magnetic field motors of various types are emerging which appear to be making use of Maxwell's 'asymmetric' original quaternion equations that were edited into 'vector' equations after his death.see:
Battery Technology
This key field is experiencing rapid development with many approaches, so only the occassional significant breakthrough will be posted as time allows.
There have been results by John Bedini and others (see Home page) that demonstrate non-galvanic battery power using only a mixture of salts and and lead or two dissimilar metals - no liquid! Also John Hutchinson has used only dry rocks with metal! This has not been in the mainstream of research to date. In addition, see the documented work of T. Henry Moray in the document Lost Science: Gerry Vassilatos on the Unified Field Technology Research - Resources page.
High Efficiency in ICE's
There are a number of instances of inventors using vaporization of fuel (not currently done) which results in far greater efficiencies in internal combustion engines. Other methods are being discovered also.
