SC²I Distinguished Lecture (A Joint IoT/INTR Event) | Hydrogen Powered Drones and Air Taxi
Battery powered drones and air taxi has limited range, speed, and payload, which severely limits the development of a low altitude economy much discussed for the Greater Bay Area. I will present my invention of Turbine Rocket Experiment, nicknamed TReX, to power drones and air taxi. TReX uses high pressure Gaseous Oxygen and Hydrogen, nicknamed GOH, as rocket fuel to power my exponential spiral turbine to generate electricity through my polygon electric generator. The power generated is used for eVTOL. I will describe new aerodynamics for zero carbon TReX drones. I will also trace the invention process and discuss commercialize TreX. Red Bird MPhil students are invited to develop applications for this TReX drones. TReX will change aviation history. It’s Green, it’s Fast: it’s a TReX. Go TReX GOH! Go Cleaner, Cooler, and Cheaper!! Fly Faster, Farther, Friendlier!!!
