Robert Adams
Biography
Robert Adams was a New Zealand electrical engineer who developed the Adams Pulsed Electric Motor Generator in the 1970s. He faced significant resistance from the New Zealand scientific establishment but persisted in publishing and sharing his work. His motor design uses precisely timed electrical pulses to energize stator coils as permanent magnet rotors align with iron cores, recovering flyback energy to the source battery. Adams published "The Adams Pulsed Motor Generator Manual" detailing his decades of research.

A pulsed permanent magnet motor/generator that uses precisely-timed short electrical pulses to energize stator coils as rotor magnets align. Rotation is primarily driven by permanent magnet attraction to the stator iron cores.
