Revision as of 20:53, 22 January 2011
Matthew Rollins is a retired technician and inventor of several things used today world wide. One of the projects he has been working on involves observing the varying performance of a parabolic when it is moved various distances from the 'heating target'. This may provide groundwork for a version of a parabolic solar cooker that uses an easily movable reflector to maximize efficiency.
