Steorn Appoints Key Business Leaders To Board

Steorn have appointed 5 new directors to the board of the company, all having very extensive experience in business leadership.  The reshuffle comes amid a period of intense development by Steorn on developing a real world application of their technology in the form of high powered heaters based on Orbo technology.

"Steorn announces the addition of new directors to the board of the company with the addition of a new company Secretary, a position previously held by Sean McCarthy.

CEO and director Sean McCarthy says "we are pleased to announce the addition of five new directors to the board, their background and experience will compliment Steorn as we continue the process of bringing Orbo enabled products to market".

As we reported recently, Steorn have been putting small pieces of information out through Twitter recently.

"3 kW - in the palm or your hand - just so cool!" was tweeted on March 28th and then quickly followed by a reply to a question from another Twitter user.

Nondual - @SteornOfficial no pics? no videos?

"SteornOfficial - @nondual Yep, within the next 4 weeks we plan to release info on a 15 kW heating element."

This latest strengthening of the Steorn team would suggest that they will indeed enter the marketplace with a real-world application later this year.

Orbo Evaluation And Development Unit OEDU Announced

Steorn Announces "Prover" Board Which Will Demonstrate The Core Orbo Effect.   

This is a highly significant step closer to the realisation of Free Energy generation and a move towards independently powered cars, phones, and electrical items. The Orbo Evaluation And Development Unit is an electronic circuit board that can demonstrate a "non-conservative energy result". 

 

System Comprises

• 12 month Developer License
• 12 month SKDB Membership
• 1 Orbo Evaluation and Development Unit (OEDU)
• 1 USB memory stick with test data

OEDU Features and Applications

• Unit to measure core Orbo effect
• Parameter modification
• Simple measurement with an oscilloscope

Orbo Technology Developer License and SKDB Membership

• Access to the SKDB and its Orbo technology e-Learning modules – understanding the technology
• Learn how Orbo technology works and how to build devices
• Typically for electrical and electronic engineers, research and development teams, and specialists in magnetics and physics
• Collaborate online and establish multi-disciplined research teams
• Commercialisation requires separate license
• Annual License and Membership

OEDU Support Available in the SKDB

• User manual
• Bill of materials
• Board layout
• Data analysis support
• Optimisation support

Required Equipment and Skills

• Oscilloscope
• Data analysis package, such as Microsoft Excel
• Electrical measurement skills
• Experimental data analysis skills 

Basic Principle of Operation

The Steorn Evaluation and Development Unit (OEDU) produces a time-variant magnetic interaction which leads to a non-conservative energy result.

Key Features

The OEDU provides engineers with a perfect introduction to this revolutionary new energy technology. It can be used not only to validate Steorn’s central claim regarding the Orbo effect but also as a platform for the development of Orbo-powered devices.

Simply put, the OEDU allows the user to determine system efficiency by comparing energy input and energy output. It has been carefully designed with ease-of-use in mind and requires no other specialised equipment, bar an oscilloscope.

The OEDU has four points at which measuring probes can be attached. It is battery-powered, which greatly simplifies energy calculations and adds to the unit’s already impressive portability. Because clarity of purpose is so crucial, the OEDU is completely open and transparent in its design. The function of every element is clear and obvious, and there are no hidden components.

The follwoing video includes a physicist and 2 electrical engineers who have tested the Unit and were getting "308-320%" output.

The unit is being made available sometime in October and by completing Pre-registration you will be given to a special discounted price of 360 euros.

Steorn Article In Irish Business Post

Article From Irish Business Post

Steorn, the Dublin firm that claims to have created free energy, expects to take in more than €2 million this year from people paying to use its technology.

Sean McCarthy, chief executive of Steorn, said he expected at least 5,000 people to pay a licence fee of €419 to use the so called Orbo technology this year. The income from Steorn’s ‘developer forum’ would help it to break even this year, he said.

In 2006 the company claimed that its Orbo device could generate free power by using magnetism to multiply energy. However, a public demonstration of the technology the following year failed and its claims have been widely criticised by the scientific community, as the first law of thermodynamics states that energy cannot be created or destroyed.

McCarthy said that about 7,000 people saw the Orbo device in action during a display in Dublin earlier this year, and it had attracted a million visitors online.

The firm opened its developer forum on April 1, a date McCarthy said was ‘‘tongue in cheek, classic Steorn’’.

He insisted last week that the system worked and had attracted interest from around the world. ‘‘We have had 15,000 pre-applications for developers’ licences; 50 per cent of those might not be real, but we are very happy with the progress," he said.

McCarthy said that the first uses of the technology were likely to be in basic applications, such as heaters. ‘‘That’s the easiest way to use excess energy. But in 18 months to two years, we expect to see it in things like chargers for mobile phones," he said.

McCarthy said he expected that Steorn would be ‘‘getting stick continually’’ over its free energy claims. ‘‘If I was watching it and wasn’t involved, I’d be saying the same things," he said. ‘‘It is a difficult thing for rational people to accept and, when something is vague, it is seen as some kind of fraud.

There is no rule book for something like this."

He said that the company would publish details of the technology behind the Orbo system on its website this week.

‘‘It is classical scientific and engineering content about magnetism and fundamental physics," he said. ‘‘It shows that what’s inside this is real."

Steorn’s latest accounts show a loss of about €3 million in 2008, bringing its accumulated losses to €12.4 million.

McCarthy said the firm should break even or make a modest profit this year, and had the support of its shareholders.

The firm has raised €16 million in funding, with all the backing coming from private investors, rather than institutions.

The company has 18 staff, down from a high of 22.

‘‘We had to take a little bit of pain, but we were lucky - we have raised a fair chunk of money and we got the money we needed when it was available," he said.
