| VECTOR EQUILIBRIUM: A PROPOSED ULTRA-MICRO COMPUTER |
| PARALLEL CPU'S SURROUNDED BY DISTRIBUTED MEMORY MODULES |
R. Buckminster Fuller proposed a design for the ultimate (smallest & fastest) micro computer. |
A low voltage ac carrier of a given frequency (light?) fed to the central atom (radio transmitter antenna) of a cluster of identical atoms (diamond?) will generate a spherical wave of energy which will travel outward until it resonates with the layer of atoms corresponding to the input frequency. |
A modulating frequency may then be tuned to individual sets of atoms in that layer. |
 |
| Variations of the very low ac current will permit addressing four different sets of electrons per atom. |
| Variations of voltage would represent zeros & ones. |
| The same procedure applied to the poles of that cluster of atoms would extract any stored energy (information). |
The number of atoms per shell may be calculated by using the formula: |
| n = 10 (frequency squared) + 2 |
| A flattened-out (unfolded) vector equilibrium or regular tetrahedron may be used to map each shell (layer) of atoms. |
