&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Steven Ward Sr&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; (Steven Wayne Ward, Sr.) is an American independent inventor and researcher who claims the discovery of a distinct component of the magnetic field which he calls the &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Wardforce&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;, and who is the inventor of record on US Patent 7,531,930, &amp;quot;Energy producing magnetic converter.&amp;quot; He presents his work in the free-energy and antigravity strand of the [[Tesla Technology]] community. He is unrelated to [[Daniel Ward]] and [[Sonne Ward]], also documented on this wiki.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Scientific contributions==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Wardforce===&lt;br /&gt;
Ward defines Wardforce as &amp;quot;the force part of the magnetic field that controls forward and backward motion, attraction and repelling&amp;quot; — a force, on his account, rather than a property of the poles, and one he holds has been isolated from the north and south poles. He connects it to the definition of current as, in his phrasing, &amp;quot;the Magnetic Field in motion&amp;quot;: whatever controls that motion is Wardforce. Ward regards the patent as the practical evidence for the claim, noting that patent offices will not grant perpetual-motion applications and stating: &amp;quot;I had to prove that Wardforce existed, before the USPTO would accept my application for US Patent 7531930.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Energy producing magnetic converter===&lt;br /&gt;
US Patent 7,531,930 was filed on 4 May 2006 and granted on 12 May 2009 to Steven Wayne Ward, Sr. as an individual inventor. Its abstract describes a converter &amp;quot;that outputs both electrical and mechanical energy,&amp;quot; comprising a controller assembly rotatably secured between field coil assemblies and magnets; as the controller assembly rotates, current is generated in the field coils and counter-magnetic fields are induced around them, and the counterforce between the magnets&amp;#039; fields and those counter-magnetic fields is said to cause and maintain forward rotational motion, so that the device outputs torque in addition to current. Ward presents the patent as &amp;quot;only one very small benefit from the discovery of Wardforce.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Antigravity claims===&lt;br /&gt;
Ward claims that gravity and antigravity can be defined by duplication on a laboratory bench, that space travel can be demonstrated at that scale, and — in his own words — that the work &amp;quot;proves that gravity can be made.&amp;quot; He argues for the significance of this to the space programme, and stresses that his demonstrations are built from scrap: &amp;quot;I can demonstrate energy from magnets using junk... Imagine what could be done with the proper resources and personnel.&amp;quot; These are Ward&amp;#039;s own claims for his apparatus, presented as demonstrations at conference; they have not been independently replicated in the mainstream literature.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==TeslaTech==&lt;br /&gt;
Ward has presented at the ExtraOrdinary Technology Conference run by [[Tesla Tech]] in Albuquerque, NM, in three consecutive years:&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;quot;Ward Magnetics and Antigravity&amp;quot; — 2024 conference, 8 August 2024&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;quot;Ward Force Antigravity II&amp;quot; — 2023 conference, 13 August 2023, session &amp;quot;ExtraOrdinary Physics Concepts&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
* &amp;quot;Ward Force Antigravity&amp;quot; — 2022 conference, 11 August 2022, session &amp;quot;ExtraOrdinary AntiGravity Technology&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His talks were billed by the conference under the strapline &amp;quot;Patented Device Unlocks Gravity!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Works==&lt;br /&gt;
