We are an early stage startup in Silicon Valley, CA and Bangalore, India. As always we are always actively looking for suitably qualified and interested engineers/scientists to join us. Do use the contact us link below.
CFFP is a unique Flettnor rotor based propulsion technology that provides self contained
propulsion including both lift and thrust.
The technology consists of scaling the the normal Flettnor rotor in an inertial field and applying it to lift/push
applications in maritime, aerial, space and probably land too. Thus can be applied to not just very large container ships
as is the current state of art - but for smaller ships and aircraft for example. Additionally, the rotor size is expected to be much smaller
based on our technology improvements - probably less than a meter. And far more silent than current propulsion technologies.
And with the inherent energy effeciency of the Flettner rotor - vastly more energy effecient
than current propulsion methods.
The same engine can be used for any application - sea, air, land, and space. Expectedly each application will need appropriate control system and integrations for the specific application - but the engine itself should be mostly the same. This is feasible due to the CFFP aspect as mentioned before.
The technology is at a TRL3. Projected thrust with our basic configuration is >5kN.
A flying boat like a hovercraft but powered by CFFP capable of high speed transport over water and hovering over the water. The boat is expected to hover a few feet above the waves but can be controlled for height as needed - without being dependent on water surface conditions as in conventional hovercrafts or wing-in-ground effect vehicles
This is for coastal transportation - island transport, ferries, etc. with an initial capacity of 9-12 people. Other models are planned over time with lower and larger capacity.
This product is under development.
Quantumloop is a novel field propulsion technology based on a unique Light Field Propeller technology.
Since the last century - has been the reliance of fuels i.e. energy storage driven by chemistry for propulsion. Whether it is hydrocarbon, electric, hydrogen, etc. This seems to be a difficult proposition for sustainability and climate protection. This implies we have used bigger and bigger power sources brute forcing our way forward. What is needed is a sustainable solution that harnesses energy naturally and is able to provide extraordinary capabilities across forms of transportation such as high manouverability, speeds, range, etc. Likely the current energy storage driven approach is incapable of ever addressing such needs. So, there is a need to move forward - with a technology like Quantumloop, that relies on ambient energy.
The technology consists of a proprietary Light Field Propeller technology.
As expected a propeller produces propulsion. The engine works through a proprietary method to harness ambient energy
(gravity and inertia) for propulsion through the light engine.
Thus, energy for propulsion is through ambient energy actually.
Thus, the extraordinary energy benefits of the technology. This technology is at a TRL2 and is
currently in ongoing R&D.
The blog below shows some of the progress made with Quantumloop.
