Project Description GoBox Universal Motor Controller

Objective of the GoBox Interest Group and our project is to develop technology drasticly reducing fuel consumption of motors used in flexible duty applications such as vehicles.

Goal is to define solutions specialized to the challenge to make especially Internal combustion Motors run with minimal amounts of Combustibles based on GoBox/HydroCarbons.

We are inspired by the reports of people running their vehicles on Water (GoBox/WaterCar -> Daniel Dingel, Gareth Carburetor) recycling the majority of this water and achieving incredibly low 'consumption' at that.

The challenge is based on very little factual or scientific information and therefore leaves much to be established in experimentation! This is a reason why the GoBox/TargetSpecifications are necessarily more accommodating and aim to provide more than the minimum capabilities. This may result in the selection of technology with higher cost. Still in order to control cost and allow for faster design cycles during the initial prototype/experimentation stages we are planning a modular concept consisting in a GoBox/LogicModule (LM) that can except a number of standardized GoBox/PowerModule (PM) and GoBox/SensingModule (SM)(see GoBox/TargetSpecifications).

Talent Needed

Currently we most need People to Enter Schematic and Pad stack symbols see more in GoBox/DevelopmentTasks.

Also if you can help establishing a relatively simple short circuit protected Power FET driver output scheme and prove it by test and simulation inform about it here: GoBox/SchematicPCB

Targeted Applications

The GoBox shall be prepared for electronic fuel injected vehicles but shall also support carburated engines.

Water injection may be a part of our solution. There are also hints toward extensive exhaust recirculation (possibly including HV Ion Separation)(GoBox/ExhaustRecirculation).

GoBox/FPGA: We are hoping to join forces with the GenBoard Initiative creating a version that replaces the Microcontroller with a technologically superior Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). Most other aspects of the Hardware and Software can be shared.
