Nikola Tesla's patented GENIAL inventions that have never been built.
"I don't care that they
stole my idea..
I care that they don't have
any of their own"
Nikola Tesla
1856-1943
Prior to his death, the press argued that Nikola Tesla was working on a project called "Mortal Ray". It could destroy any military target hundreds of miles away. Here are some of Tesla's inventions that have never been built.
Earthquake machine
In 1893, Tesla patented a steam-powered mechanical oscillator that would cause vibrations at an amazing speed to generate electricity, according to History . A few years after obtaining the patent for invention, Tesla said that by starting the machine in his laboratory in New York caused the vibration of the earth. During the test, he continued to increase the power of the machine until he heard more cracks. "From nowhere," he says, "the whole machine began to cause strong earth movements. Then I took a hammer and destroyed the machine. Otherwise, the building would have collapsed shortly. '' Police and ambulance arrived immediately in the area, but Tesla told their assistants to tell the police that it was just an earthquake .
The photographic camera for thoughts
Tesla thought he could photograph the thoughts . He was inspired by the experiments he made in 1893. After several decades, Tesla told the press: "I was convinced that a defined image formed in thought can, with the help of reflection, produce an image on the retina , Which could have been taken over by a certain type of device ''. Tesla was convinced that the image reflected on an artificial retina could be photographed and projected onto a screen. "If this could be accomplished, the object that a person imagines could be reflected on a screen while forming" '.

In 1901, Tesla bought $ 150,000 from JP Morgan baker to build a 56-foot-sized mushroom tower. With the tower it would have been possible to send messages, phone calls and images across the Attic Ocean. At the beginning of the work for the Wardenclyffe Tower, Tesla argued that he wanted to power the city of New York through the air. But Morgan did not want to fund other inventor's ideas anymore. Tesla abandoned the project in 1906 before it became operational, the Wardenclyffe Tower being destroyed in 1917.

Tesla was a smart man. My favorite quote of his is:
"The year 2100 will see eugenics universally established. In past ages, the law governing the survival of the fittest roughly weeded out the less desirable strains. Then man's new sense of pity began to interfere with the ruthless workings of nature. As a result, we continue to keep alive and to breed the unfit."
I wish that I would be alive to see if it is true - but that is highly unlikely.
We will do big progresses in technology in the next 20 years, so maybe you will catch that time!
