Transdimensional Technologies (TDT) was a small company in Huntsville, Alabama, that in the early 2000s advertised work on propellantless propulsion and a "gravitational wave" propulsion system, alongside more conventional optical and weapons products.[1][2]
The company
An archived 2002 version of its website listed Jeff Cameron as president and chief scientist, Gene Young as chief engineer and Wade Preston as contract specialist.[2]
Projects
The same archived site described a mix of conventional and speculative work. On the conventional side were a laser-free optical bore-sighting device for firearms, marketed to the military and police; "Medusa", a non-lethal weapon using high-power LEDs to temporarily disorient a target; LED-pumped solid-state dye lasers proposed for power beaming; and magnetocaloric hybrid rocket engines.[1]
The speculative projects were "Power 3", a propellantless propulsion concept based on a claimed non-conservative Lorentz force, with a test rotor in a vacuum container said to have been developed under a NASA Marshall Space Flight Center contract; and an "asymmetric gravitational wave propulsion system" that would use programmable laser diodes and semiconductors to produce a directional force.[1]
Context
Huntsville is home to NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center, which in the 1990s funded investigations of superconductor gravity claims. Small firms there and elsewhere pitched unconventional propulsion ideas during the same period.[1][3]
Assessment
No working propellantless or gravitational propulsion system from the company has been reported, and "transverse gravitational wave" propulsion of the kind described has no basis in accepted physics.[1][3]
