-
Although the original TPU devices have all been lost, there is a large Internet cooperative project in the Open Source movement to reproduce it.

And I'm such a luddite, I use emacs for no other reason than the fact that I can go into TPU emulation mode, and use the same editor I've been using for 26 years.

For tubing applications, silicone and TPU can be used for longer periods of time than PVC/DEHP, thereby reducing the cost differential.

Perhaps another, much more controversial one, is now known famously in the Open Source Energy movement as the “TPU” (“Toroidal Power Unit”); a device shrouded in mystery which has become an urban legend due to the fantastic “You Tube” videos regarding it.
-
The amazing thing about the TPU is, without any moving parts, a device weighing about 30 pounds could supposedly generate over 1,000 Watts of power; using only a small excitation circuit powered by a 9-volt battery (… this according to several witnesses, including reputable electronic engineers).

Thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) is used in tubing applications.

Manufacturability (i.e., the ease with which the material can be transformed into the finished product) is superior for glass, and inferior for EVA, silicone and TPU.

Besides the impressive power output, the TPU was reported to have the very strange gyroscopic tendency of resisting physical movement of the device … It “pushed back” with resistance when moved; suggesting that a circular magnetic flux vortex was created within the toroidal (“doughnut”) shape when operating.
