DIRECTED ENERGY CONVERSION AND DISTRIBUTION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17493833 titled 'DIRECTED ENERGY CONVERSION AND DISTRIBUTION
Simplified Explanation
Abstract
The patent application describes a method for converting sound energy into electrical energy and distributing it to various devices within a specific area. The energy conversion is done using one or more energy converters. The devices are classified based on their energy requirements, and the electrical energy converted from sound energy is allocated to each device accordingly. A switching mechanism controls the delivery of electrical energy to create a transmission channel for each device.

Original Abstract Submitted
Energy conversion and distribution can include converting sound energy to electrical energy using one or more energy converters positioned within a predetermined area. Multiple devices can be classified to indicate an energy requirement of each device, and the electrical energy converted from sound energy can be allocated to one or more of the devices based on the classifying. Delivery of the electrical energy allocated to each of the one or more devices can be controlled using a switching mechanism to create a transmission channel with respect to each of the one or more devices.
