2016-07-21 19:01:34来源:网络

  CA: What, to power -- for lighting and stuff?

  0:48

  WK: Yeah.

  0:50

  CA: So what did you do? How did you realize that?

  0:53

  WK: After I dropped out of school, I went to library, and I read a book that would -- "Using Energy,"and I get information about doing the mill. And I tried, and I made it.

  1:06

  (Applause)

  1:16

  CA: So you copied -- you exactly copied the design in the book.

  1:20

  WK: Ah, no. I just --

  1:22

  CA: What happened?

  1:24

  WK: In fact, a design of the windmill that was in the book, it has got four -- ah -- three blades, and mine has got four blades.

  1:35

  CA: The book had three, yours had four.

  1:37

  WK: Yeah.

  1:38

  CA: And you made it out of what?

  1:40

  WK: I made four blades, just because I want to increase power.

  1:45

  CA: OK.

  1:46

  WK: Yeah.

  1:47

  CA: You tested three, and found that four worked better?

  1:49

  WK: Yeah. I test.

  1:51

  CA: And what did you make the windmill out of? What materials did you use?

  1:56

  WK: I use a bicycle frame, and a pulley, and plastic pipe, what then pulls --

  2:02

  CA: Do we have a picture of that? Can we have the next slide?

  2:05

  WK: Yeah. The windmill.

  2:07

  CA: And so, and that windmill, what -- it worked?

  2:11

  WK: When the wind blows, it rotates and generates.

  2:16

  CA: How much electricity?

  2:17

  WK: 12 watts.

  2:19

  CA: And so, that lit a light for the house? How many lights?

  2:24

  WK: Four bulbs and two radios.

  2:26

  CA: Wow.

  2:27

  WK: Yeah.

  2:28

  (Applause) CA: Next slide -- so who's that?

  2:40

  WK: This is my parents, holding the radio.

  2:43

  CA: So what did they make of -- that you were 14, 15 at the time -- what did they make of this? They were impressed?

  2:50

  WK: Yeah.

  2:51

  CA: And so what's your -- what are you going to do with this?

  2:53

  WK: Um --

  2:55

  CA: What do you -- I mean -- do you want to build another one?

  2:59

  WK: Yeah, I want to build another one -- to pump water and irrigation for crops.

  3:07

  CA: So this one would have to be bigger?

  3:09

  WK: Yeah.

  3:10

  CA: How big?

  3:11

  WK: I think it will produce more than 20 the watts.

  3:17

  CA: So that would produce irrigation for the entire village?

  3:21

  WK: Yeah.

  3:23

  CA: Wow. And so you're talking to people here at TED to get people who might be able to help in some way to realize this dream?

  3:32

  WK: Yeah, if they can help me with materials, yeah.

  3:36

  CA: And as you think of your life going forward, you're 19 now, do you picture continuing with this dream of working in energy?

  3:46

  WK: Yeah. I'm still thinking to work on energy.

  3:51

  CA: Wow. William, it's a real honor to have you at the TED conference. Thank you so much for coming.

  3:57

  WK: Thank you.

  3:59

  (Applause)
