Nola Doyle NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.06.23 22:19:00 - [1] NEUROGEN HOSTS FIRST ANNUAL "INVENTORS SUMMIT" In an effort to promote the brilliance of human achievement, NeuroGEN is proud to announce its first annual Inventors Summit. Corporations and individuals are encouraged to submit for public scrutiny their most brilliant inventions, where the public will decide which creation deserves the coveted award for most outstanding achievement. Submissions Inventors looking to participate in this event must submit their project within two weeks of this press release in the following format: Project Name: (name of the project) Submitted By: (individual or group taking credit) Project Description: (a brief description of what the project does or accomplishes) Potential Application: (what could this be useful for in the real world) Once the submission period has ended, the projects will be reviewed and presented for voting by the public for an additional week, whereby the winner will be announced shortly thereafter. Multiple projects may be submitted by an individual or as a group. Any further questions may be made on this open forum or in private via FTL mail to me. Best of luck to all participants! Nola Doyle Co-CEO, NeuroGEN
Irias Salo Caldari The Star Wolves	Posted - 2007.06.23 22:21:00 - [2] The best thing I've heard so far this year, you can count on me entering. Originally by: Ginger. There is no roleplay, there is only EVE
Vendrin Caldari APEX Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.06.24 01:53:00 - [3] Intriguing. _____________________________________ APEX Conglomerate is recruiting. Join channel APEXCOM for information!
Scorch Mor'Tayle Amarr Khanid Authority Legionnaires Khanid Provincial Authority	Posted - 2007.06.28 11:17:00 - [4] I have a question... Are you refering to actual in prodution((in game)) inventions or ones on the drawing board((concepts))?
Nola Doyle NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.06.28 12:24:00 - [5] Prototypes are satisfactory. Something presentable to the public of any field of research, including starship engineering. Just a small reminder, next Saturday is the deadline to present your inventions. N.D.
Vendrin Caldari APEX Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.06.28 21:03:00 - [6] Project Name: Graviton Resonance Device Submitted By: APEX Conglomerate Project Description: Inspired by the spectacular failure of the InoTech StarDrive, The APEX GRD prototype is designed to take advantage of the graviton resonance effects that led to the Icarus Incident. Through excitation of the gravity field in proximity to a high-energy event (such as a cynosural field, or a large-scale fusion reaction), a rift in local space-time can be created, leading to violent and rapid shifts in the local electromagnetic and gravitic fields. These resonance effects cause massive amounts of EM radiation and gravity shear stress to be inflicted on any ships or other objects in space. Potential Application: The GRD is intended to function primarily as an area-denial weapon, capable of destroying a cyno field and any ships in its proximity before a fleet can assemble. _____________________________________ APEX Conglomerate is recruiting.

Vendrin Caldari APEX Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.06.28 21:03:00 - [7] Project Name: Laser Defense System (LDS) Submitted By: APEX Conglomerate Project Description: With the Defender Missile System failing to catch on among the Capsuleer market and the increase in specialized offensive missiles being used by all factions, Caldari and Amarrian engineers have collaborated to produce a flexible and effective missile defense system for compatible vessels. The Laser Defense System uses a register of advanced targeting heuristics utilized on most missile guidance systems plus cutting-edge tracking computers to predict the trajectory of incoming enemy missiles and fire pinpoint high-intensity laser beams in order to prematurely detonate the warheads. The LDS uses specialized crystal lenses to balance range, tracking speed, capacitor efficiency, and thermal damage in order to maximize effectiveness against all classes of missiles. The LDS has a refire rate approaching that of an unmodified rocked launcher that the Defenders are generally launched from, ensuring multiple hits on heavier missiles. Potential Applications: The system is accurate with a 98.9% success rate against cruise missiles fired from 60km away*, consuming only a small amount of onboard capacitor reserves per firing. LDS is less accurate against lighter, faster missiles launched from modified vessels at closer ranges. Further test will show if it is feasible to used larger arrays of LDS lasers on dedicated escort ships to protect high-value vessels. _____________________________________ APEX Conglomerate is recruiting.

Keopa Caldari The Tierijev Compact Prime Orbital Systems	Posted - 2007.06.28 22:22:00 - [8] Project Name: Persephone Submitted By: Keopa Project Description: Sends a "jump" probe through a stargate. The probe does a direction scan and sends the information back before the wormhole closes. Potential Application:This would be useful in gathering intelligence on neighboring system gates without endangering the ship.
Irias Salo Caldari The Star Wolves Accord Corporate Enterprise Syndicate	Posted - 2007.06.30 15:16:00 - [9] Project Name: Living Death Submitted By: Irias Salo, Dr. Project Description: The human body is an amazing thing, especially the brain. When a human undergoes torture, those with strong willpower can often 'turn off' the pain, however given that there are currently two branches of torture, physical and mental, and this approach only works for physical torture, mental is a torturers dream. The living death device acts much like our interfaces, only this time rather then the ôpilotö being in control, the torturer has full control. While acting like True Slaves [Sansha] the tortured retains full memory of what is happening, and worse still, has no idea that heÆs being controlled. Potential Application: A perfect tool for framing capsuleers for assassinations, attacks, and other such actions. Originally by: Ginger. There is no roleplay, there is only EVE
Vendrin Caldari APEX Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.07.01 04:49:00 - [10] And you called me cold hearted and uncaring Irias.... _____________________________________ APEX Conglomerate is recruiting. Join channel APEXCOM for information!
Boma Airaken Perkone	Posted - 2007.07.01 05:00:00 - [11] Why would anyone working on projects such as these actually announce the basis and ideas for such technology to the public, especially a gaggle of Caldari loyalists? While the principle of the summit makes sense, the delivery is laughable, especially the weapons systems already proposed. Nobody in their right mind would share even the slightest detail of a weapons research project with the general public. Apparently the State and its loyalists really are going to hell in a handbasket.
Lillith Blackheart NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.01 05:09:00 - [12] No details have been given of any merit, Mr. Airaken, simply generalized conceptualization of the technologies at present. For instance, let us take Vendrin's laser-defense system. Knowing that they use specialized lenses and mirrors to create the pinpoint beam with high tracking that they use is worthless information to you if you do not have one of those lenses, mirrors, or servos in order to be able to attempt to replicate the product via deconstruction. You are still left at square one, a basic idea that you need to figure out how to do, I do believe you are jumping the gun on this one.
Boma Airaken Perkone	Posted - 2007.07.01 06:16:00 - [13] Ahhh I see so it is just a sharing of concepts. Wonderful. Carry on. ((In other words its yet another Revan-esque metagaming thread. I expected alot more from you Lillith.))

Nola Doyle NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.01 15:25:00 - [15] Edited by: Nola Doyle on 01/07/2007 15:25:26 The purpose of this project is precisely what I stated in the announcement: An opportunity to present the brilliance of human achievement through science. I don't have time or the interest in petty politics between squabbling nations, nor am I concerned with the ramifications of presenting these projects to the public. The purity of science knows no invisible boundaries and the ingenuity of mankind will be the progenetor of the future. NeuroGEN will do its part to see that happen. A small reminder: Submissions are still allowed until this Saturday.
Talaris EveningStar Caldari State Security and Intelligence APEX Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.07.02 01:40:00 - [16] Edited by: Talaris EveningStar on 02/07/2007 01:39:50 Project Name: Induced Phase Cloak Submitted By: State Security and Intelligence (Project Independant from APEX Conglomerate) Project Description: Based on tests done in relation to Covert Ops cloaking devices and furthering research acquired through intelligence agents within several organizations, the phase cloak was born. The primary purpose of the phase cloak is to overcome the disruption of the cloaking field when objects come within a certain range of a cloaked vessel. By wrapping the vessel in a micro warp field then releasing a blanket of gravitons around the ship, in theory the vessel can be pushed slightly out of spacetime and into a micro-pocket of subspace. This process would render the vessel unaffected by material objects exsisting in regular spacetime. As such the vessel could remain within hundreds of meters of a target object without detection. In theory the phase cloak can also allow vessels to actually pass through solid non-energized matter. Potential Applications: The obvious application is the primary purpose of the device of course, however secondary applications have been considered. The cloak could potentially be used for surveying large space objects like massive asteroids or dead planets. However, the vessel could not safely pass through another vessel, as the energy fields on the non-cloaked vessel would destabalize the graviton blanket and cause a critical implosion effect in the module itself. The result would destroy the vessel, and potentially cause a tear in the fabric of space, or even cause a gravity well or 'black hole' to form in its former location. At current date this device can only function on unnmaned, large vessels, as the resulting muon neutrino field catalyzing inside the vessel is devastating to organic matter. While usually neutrinos are harmless to matter and pass through it with no visible effects, in this phased state it seems to cause rapid tissue decay and massive cellular damage to organic matter. "Democracy is for the gullible, Tyrrany is for the weak. We, the State, are the answer to both."
Spoon Thumb Khanid Aerospace Group Khanid Provincial Authority	Posted - 2007.07.02 16:17:00 - [17] Edited by: Spoon Thumb on 02/07/2007 16:18:34 Project Name: Precision Rapid Component Assembly Array (PRCAA) Submitted By:: Khanid Aerospace Group Project Description: The PRCAA combines the speed of a regular rapid assembly array with the precision and high quality production values of slower, but more material and intensive manufacturing facilities. The array is a space-bound facility designed to operate as part of a standard starbase, and achieves its excellent performance by being specifically tailored to the production of high-tech (T2) components and products Application: Currently in use by Khanid Aerospace Group at our Danera research and production station (which incidentally has its own impressive array of 84 separate laboratories spread over 7 separate facilities), the array is used to produce many of the key components used in the manufacture of the so called "Tech 2" line of products. This has in the past included manufacture of Cerberus and Ishkur Heavy Assault Cruisers, the Hulk mining barge and various modules ranging from Ballistics Control Units (II) to Modulated Strip Miners (II) Khaldari KPA are recruiting In-game channel: khanidpublic
Nola Doyle NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.07 04:32:00 - [18] A pre-recorded video uploads, displaying the NeuroGEN logo with a worldly tune. A petite, dark-haired Deteis woman appears onstage dressed in formal conservative suit, responding to polite applause from the audience with a polite nod. "Welcome to NeuroGEN Corporation's public unveiling of Project Doppleganger. I am Lillith Blackheart, Co-CEO of NGN, and I'd like to introduce you to the senior project manager and co-CEO, Dr. Nola Doyle..." More applause as a red-haired Gallentean appears in a luminescent green outfit, standing beside Lillith casting a warm smile with her hands folded behind her back. Lillith continued, "...and our director of R&D, Nola Doyle..." Yet another woman, dressed in identical clothing and flapper hairstyle, her bright crimson hair glistening in the spotlight, walks across the stage and waves to the audience. "...and the rest of the team..." Thirty eight similar women, all identical to the Gallentean doctor, streamed onto the stage standing side by side with bright smiles, waving to the confused audience as some clapped while loud murmurs from the onlookers overshadowed the scene. "Welcome to the future of cloning technology." --- Project Name: Doppleganger Submitted By: NeuroGEN Project Description: In laymans terms, Project Doppleganger is the successfull split of the neural scan taken from pod breaches and dispensed into multiple bodies. This, in essence, creates identical personalities from the original template with their own thought processes. The downside, however, is that these duplicates will suffer from mindlock if submerged in a capsule apparatus, and only the original signal appears capable of withstanding the mental interface. Potential Application: Military applications include a near instantaneous squad of experienced personnel, with the option of gene manipulation or implantation for further control mechanisms. Civilian application could be useful for high-profile personalities in need of body doubles or to appear at social functions at opposing ends of the universe. This could also be useful in supplying ship crews with disposable members or in accomplishing dangerous tasks. The possibilities are endless.

Perhaps I am being cynical, but I am curious if you have asked the clones whether they wish to be used in such a "disposable" manner? Does your process have steps to ensure the pliability of the clones for these purposes? I believe that this something of an interesting idea, though hardly any kind of breakthrough. After all, personal communicators, entertainment devices, and other electronic items often have a "splitter" cable that allows the "cloning" of the outbound signal. What you have done is not change the nature of cloning, but mildly (and I do mean mildly) enhanced the technology that is used by the various cloning corporations. I contend that this is not a breakthrough, or really a new invention. These ideas have been around for quite some time, but they have not generally been followed through on for other reasons than any technical difficulties (which are low), but for moral and ethical reasons, as well as most people's repugnance that often comes with thinking of someone that will compete with them in almost every way. I am far more interested in the "phase cloak" design, which actually seems innovative, rather than just tired. The other ideas are (mainly) merely enhancements on current ideas (as is yours). If your ideas pan out, please contact me, I would be willing to invest in such a venture.
Nola Doyle NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.09 15:22:00 - [20] Mr. Nagano, Originally by: Ashturi Nagano Perhaps I am being cynical, but I am curious if you have asked the clones whether they wish to be used in such a "disposable" manner? Does your process have steps to ensure the pliability of the clones for these purposes? Does a cynic ask their food if it wants to be eaten? As inferred from above, DopplegangerÖ clones can be modified using genetic manipulation or implantation technology to remove free will. As for your personal opinion about the interest value or breakthrough potential of this product, that is why we started this summit and you will be able to vote accordingly. Thank you.

Lillith Blackheart NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.09 16:32:00 - [23] I think most would not be surprised as to where my vote would go. Also, Mr. Nagano, it is not merely using a "splitter" so to speak. There is a rather significant difference between the signal that one uses for a holovid and the signal that one uses in a cloning instance. The main thing of importance you need to bear in mind is the concept of "signal loss". In a holovid, the majority of data that is transferred is junk, so that any lost signal will have a minimal impact on the final product of your viewing pleasure, wherein in an attempt to alter the signal coming from a clone replication, one has to bear in mind that even the tiniest bit of signal loss will vastly alter the final product. Just something to bear in mind. Ms. Doyle's research, of course. I do, after all, fund it.

The other ideas are (mainly) merely enhancements on current ideas (as is yours). If your going to attack an idea here then you might want to rethink before passing one as acceptable.

Revy Daidros Gallente Re-Awakened Technologies Inc Electus Matari	Posted - 2007.07.09 17:18:00 - [25] Originally by: Nola Doyle Mr. Nagano, Does a cynic ask their food if it wants to be eaten? As inferred from above, DopplegangerÖ clones can be modified using genetic manipulation or implantation technology to remove free will. Clones can be modified to remove free will?? Ms. Doyle, surely a scientist as intelligent as yourself can see the ramifications of this statement. You have just condoned slavery Ms. Doyle- in yet another form. Furthermore, I'd like to believe that you have already been warned of such dangers inherent with this 'research', but I can only assume that you have sent away such warnings with disregard- in attempt to forge your way closer to the realization of this project. Which by the way seems to have already come to fruition. Care to comment on this? <Broken Strands>
Nola Doyle NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.09 17:42:00 - [26] Oh, most certainly, Ms. Daidros. As a maiden of science I am not obligated to adhere to the narrow precepts of sub-species social hierarchies. The mere act of creation does not imply condemnation or partiality to the barbarities of slavery. The application of science is your loaded weapon and is of no consequence to me.
Lillith Blackheart NeuroGEN	Posted - 2007.07.09 18:12:00 - [27] Do you feel that the individual who created the laser should be held responsible for its use in warfare, Ms. Daidos? It is just as likely he intended it strictly for mining and construction. Any scientific advance is a double-edged sword, for as much good as it can be used for it can be warped to do a great many terrible things. Just think of all of the medications that schizophrenics use to contain their conditions that also have various side-effects that allow them to be used in some fairly brutal interrogations. . .

My point is you should be when you willfully create another breathing thing capable of being as human as you or I, you stripping them of their natural traits (emotion, free will) shouldn't exempt your responsibility! I don't care in what application you use these "acts of creation". You are stripping them of everything it means to be human. For that you should be held accountable.

You did say it right there didn't you Lillith. For as much good as it can be used- for it can be warped to do a great many terrible things. Are you prepared for your experiments to fall into others hands? Are you prepared to witness the twisting of your own discovery? Something that could very well mean the extermination of thousands of innocents. This is a means of control. Ultimate control over another. You tell me now others won't covet that with foul intentions! Furthermore- a laser is inanimate! Your experiments are done on the living, whether they be cloned or otherwise. Your argument is moot if you are willing to compare what you've done to the creation of a laser... <Broken Strands>
Spoon Thumb Khanid Aerospace Group Khanid Provincial Authority	Posted - 2007.07.09 23:58:00 - [30] my vote goes with #4 - Living death/Irias Salo This invention is not merely a tweaking of an old idea butreally breaks new ground in a direction many would not expect nor perhaps feel entirely comfortable with. Often the greatest ideas challenge the norm or the current way of thinking and I think this project has the most potential to alter the way we live, work and operate. Only drawback is that it seems to be a pure research project that opens the doors to other exciting areas rather than something of immediate practical nature in its pure form. that is to say that it is the user who defines how it is being applied rather than an inventor seeing a nich and filling it Khaldari KPA are recruiting In-game channel: khanidpublic
