Toroidal Engine Ready for Production

FarceMajeur writes "Business 2.0 has a column on a recently prototyped "round engine," properly named a toroidal engine, by VGT Technologies, Inc. Nice Flash animations of the concept are here. I've always admired the Wankel engine, but it seemed more like a time bomb than a going concern. This engine is billed as the 'world's first practical Concentric Positive Displacement Engine,' meaning no eccentric rotation to generate vibration, meaning fewer catostophic failures, one would hope."
