These are things Tesla either envisioned or invented. In Tesla's mind, these were basically one in the same. From a young age, he described vivid hallucinations of whatever he was focussing on mentally, so real that they were indistinguishable from their surroundings. He developed this to a point where he could literally construct machinery in his head, and then run them endlessly if need be to check for flaws. This practice made him famous for needing no diagrams or sketches, except for other engineers on his team.
