Uses Of Magnetic Fields In Air Vehicles, And More

Air Cushion Vehicles (ACV) like Hovercraft have the problem of continually having to pump the air to hold the machine above the land or other surface it moves above. They now have hovercraft with lowered side walls which go below the waves, this seals the air because the wall is below the water and the water is higher on both sides. The problem is this won't work on land, and it only works in deep waves. A good way to seal the air on land has been devised by use of magnets in a field all the way around the base of the machine (for usual water travel the hovercraft would be the same as usual because the surface is often not level and air would be compressed to lift it over the waves). To climb hills lasers could also go the short distance to impress into the surface of the road. This would be better than other uses like adding spray on magnetic bands to the road because the machines could go on any road without having to add the bands so hills would be climbed, and no doubt emergency wheels also used for safe braking would be of worth. The front of the machine could raise to save cats and the cat would just go right on through. In order to not wear out the road, the traction is mostly at the front and rear of the machine (if there are lots of these vehicles and attraction was just on the side in a narrow band, this would wear out the road, and much more traction and steering control than usual road machiunes would be achieved by way of a wide band of lasers at the front rear of the machine at right angles to the direction of motion).

The advantage of sealing the air well would mean much less pumping of the air, so it would be cheaper to run the machine on land, and noise would be reduced, the lasers or magnets are also to act as a pump moving a bit of the outside air inward to maintain pressure.

And while it would be hovercraft shoes you wear on land, stopping over sewer cesspool conduits wouldn't be the best!

Use of magnetic fields for a sort of permanent well sealed sliding air bubble of this type could have many uses such as moving furniture around the room of the house with bubbles on the foot of the box, and to make an air bearing where air supports most of the weight and the magnetic field seals the rest.

Another use of beams like laser beams could be to make a good air seal when you go in the room of a business, this could be used in stores without enough room to build two sets of doors to save on climate control. To make sure it wouldn't burn the customer, cooling beams at another wavelength, or just beams like magnetic beams with enough power to stop most of the air but not enough to cause harm would be used. Even so you have a healthy glow, and this idea might be combined with inventory control, like when we walk through the wall wearing a hat and walk out like a saint!

Another good use of lasers or other fields would be to seal off the air around the vegetables at the supermarket, this is achieved in most stores by way of a layer of air in motion that forms a barrier to more air being lost. Electric fields made of standing waves that would maintain power would be used and they would sense when you walked up and just lower it where you are inside the field.
