Please note: the following list is as comprehensive as possible, but due to the nature of Antigravity research, such a list cannot possibly encompass the scope of work being done on these concepts around the world. Therefore, this list may not contain references to all relevant information, but does attempt to be as comprehensive as possible.

Machs Principle: Offcenter-rotators, inertial-thrusters, or piezo-devices. These devices attempt to pull themselves up by the bootstraps to overcome gravity mechanically. Dr. James F. Woodward, Piezo-Electric Transducers Robert Cook, Cook Inertial Propulsion Device Paul March (Lockheed), Indy-experiments with Woodwards research James Cox, Offcenter-Rotator Device

ELF-Grav Shielding: Low-Frequency EM-waves block gravitons from interacting with mass, creating a shield from gravity and inertia. Prof. Fran De Aquino, Brazilian inventor (possibly working with Braz. Military) Steve Burns, M.A. Nuclear Physics, Designer of De Aquinos device Martin Tajmar, Presenting ELF-Replication attempt at STAIF 2005.
