| abstract | - At the beginning of a new century, we do wonder what kind of new inventions will enrich our daily lives. Walking through thick books about the inventions man made over the centuries we can only be sure that wonderful things are yet to come. At the end of the 19th century some scholars declared that everything was invented, but they did not know that there would be an enormous boost of new creations and ideas after Worldwar II. Those things enlightened our lives and people got more time to do other things besides the daily occupations. Goods were delivered from all over the world, were sold cheap in our shopping-malls and we got the liberty to travel far or build our houses in another state. Being close to work but far away from our families and friends. But we were lucky, because you could always take your car to go home. And to realise all these kind of transport we need gasoline or oil. It was cheap in the old days, but now oil-prices reach the ceiling and therefor we must find other means of empowerment. Nuclear power might still be dangerous and oil-products pollutes land, sea and air. And finally when prices for oil will be increasing only a happy few will be able to travel or transport goods with, at the end, that the prices of necessary goods will also become skyhigh. Trying to get a better world I have always asked myself why people do not use other forces in nature to get clean power. Maybe they can be used for transport, to get electricity or heat up the water in your bathtub. Let me walk you through some of my ideas I’ve put on paper over the last years. I might not be a rocket-scientist and a lot of these ideas will be rejected by scholars, because it can not be realised in real life. The ideas might be too expansive to build or might stop at a certain point in time, so they might be just useless. I am just a dude with ideas and I can handle a crayon. Therefor, the next presentations are nothing more or less than a combination of the above. But I do hope these ideas/drawings might inspire people to get started. Not to build a perpetuum mobile but to build new apparatuses to enrich the lives of every inhabitant of Earth.
