I've actually seen these patents and whatever schemata came with them about proposed machines. You could not build one from that info alone. I think these are concept patents: I know DARPA used to have a grant process for wild ideas and they do look into and patent anything that doesn't break the laws of physics too badly, just in case. It doesn't mean that these ideas are all translated to reality.
