EMP device instructions please?




Ricardo


iv'e got many electronic devices at home that i don't use anymore or are broken (a ps3, a dvd player, some controllers(tv/ps3), cellphones, camera's and microwaves or magnetron's). the idea is to make an EMP device for a project for school.

NOTE: this info will be used for further study of electronics and not for private use!

it doesn't have to be the biggest EMP device of all it just has to work! also it will be made just demonstrate to the audience what an EMP can do, as a target we'll be using a cellphone or calculator. therefore it means that the range doesn't need to be that big as well, i would like my spectators to come closer and see whitout having their phones jammed. if the info could be send via video or picture than that'd be great! and if it can be used again, than that would be a BONUS!
thank you for, reading i expect positive results.



Answer
Two basic problems with your approach:

1) you can't generate something that would classify as an EMP in this way. For an EMP, you'll need a very (_VERY_) fast change in an electromagnetic field. There is one method proven to work, which is a nuclear bomb. The other published, possibly only theoretical, method is the controlled explosive compression of a current carrying coil.

2) be glad that you can't. You won't be able to limit the range of your EMP - if you can be sure to destroy a phone at 1 foot, you can't be sure that it won't at least damage all (or at least some) other phones at 10 feet.

Inspirate


Hi,

I have a problem with my Xbox 360 Slim 4Gb. when playing games such as GTA4, Dragon Age 2 and Mini Ninja, the screen frequently shift to a black screen for 1 or 2 sec then go back to the game. This is irrespective whether im in the game or a in a loading phase. Im playing all these games from disc.
Do you know if my DVD are at fault or is it my Xbox? btw just bought the console 2 weeks ago.



Answer
The Xbox 360 is the second video game console produced by Microsoft and the successor to the Xbox. The Xbox 360 competes with Sony's PlayStation 3 and Nintendo's Wii as part of the seventh generation of video game consoles. As of September 30, 2011, 57.6 million Xbox 360 consoles have been sold worldwide.[3]
The Xbox 360 was officially unveiled on MTV on May 12, 2005, with detailed launch and game information divulged later that month at the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). The console sold out completely upon release in all regions except in Japan.[8][9][10]
Several major features of the Xbox 360 are its integrated Xbox Live service that allows players to compete online, download arcade games, game demos, trailers, TV shows, music and movies and its Windows Media Center multimedia capabilities. The Xbox 360 also offers region specific access to third-party media streaming services such as Netflix and ESPN in the US or Sky Go in the UK.
At their E3 presentation on June 14, 2010, Microsoft announced a redesigned Xbox 360 that would ship on the same day.[11] The redesigned console is slimmer than the previous Xbox 360 model and features integrated 802.11 b/g/n Wi-Fi, TOSLINK S/PDIF optical audio output, 5 USB 2.0 ports (compared to the 3 from older versions) and a special AUX port.[12] Older models of the Xbox 360 have since been discontinued.[13] The first new console to be released features a 250 GB hard drive, while a later, less expensive SKU features 4 GB internal storage.
With the announcement of the Xbox 360 S, Microsoft have said that they believe that the console is only mid-way through its life-cycle and will continue through 2015.[14][15][16] However, unnamed sources have claimed that Microsoft's next video game console is being slated for release as early as the 2013 holiday season.[17] Development of the system has also been implied by updates Microsoft employees have made to their resumes, which state that they were working on the next Xbox console. [18]Also it might go on it to long
