Vortex bladeless turbines wobble to generate energy.  The Vortex bladeless turbine supposedly takes advantage of the wind's swirling motion, which generates energy from the repeating pattern of vortices, known as the Kármán vortex street, and are generated as the air separates to pass by a blunt body, such as the Vortex structure itself (see image below).  Incorporate the WITT gear into the bladeless vortex turbine, or into other similar devices.

May be the blade-less Vortex tube inventors can come up with a special alternator a bit less mechanically involved than the WITT gear.

From this web page:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the last months we have been optimizing Vortex in many different ways:
 
 1.- The tuning system to change the natural frequency of oscillation through magnet repulsion.
 2.- We optimized the generation system through different alternator designs... now we have a good one that we can't share it because the IP process.
 3.- We changed a bit the geometry to harvest as much energy as possible.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

It looks like the blade-less Vortex inventors need more time to optimise the design of the tube and especially the design of the alternator. Two different skills, one is material science for the tube and the second is electrical engineering for the alternator, are required. Not an easy task.

It is a great idea and could be in the end a wind generator with a reasonable cost. A three meter high tube with an output of 100 Watt would be a great device charging a big 12 V battery (200 Ah) every 24 hours if there is some wind. Enough for a trailer home or a cabin in the wilderness with a few LED lamps, portable (satellite) phone charging and a tablet PC.

In a house of 100 m / 2, fully electrified (hot water, heating, appliances, lighting, air conditioning, etc..) Eight 240 W photovoltaic panels, each producing 1296 Kw., A month, is enough energy to meet the needs of the house described in the example.
The Unit with all its elements, occupies an area of one meter square.

Well, I suppose that I can play Darth Vader too just for the psychotic MIB agent role playing fun of it.

Pasting my posting on Revolution Green here:

It is interesting but don't count your chickens yet.  It doesn't make sense to put one on a truck because the energy it would harvest would come from the diesel fuel you put into the truck.  It's a fancy arrangement of clutches.  Making something like that cost-effective and seaworthy that will not need maintenance and will have a decent ROI is a huge challenge.  It will have to have moveable seals that have sea water splashing against the seals all the time.  I am no mechanical engineer so I can't say but that might be a challenge.  Notice there is no demo box driving a small incandescent light bulb because a load would slow down the flywheel and take all of the "fun" out of it.  I am smelling a very decent possibility that you are in Solar Freaking Roadways territory here. This is all pure gut feel.

Imagine a building on the seashore.  You have solar panels on the roof and a WITT wave power installation on the shore.  Which system gives you more bang for your buck?  Obviously this is an over simplified example but my nose is leading me towards the solar panel installation on the roof.  For example, the solar panel installation, just the installation costs, might be 1/100th the cost of the wave power installation if not more than that.  No moving parts vs. these big gyrating floats and huge gears and clutches and power couplings to generators, and on and on.  That sounds like very low maintenance vs. high maintenance and relatively low cost to relatively high cost to me (No matter what they are claiming about the low maintenance.)

Tell that to the dead trout that adopted a swaying movement in the vortex street and was drawn upstream while it was tethered on a line to an object flowing in water.  Put this concept on a truck, and the truck could be propelled forward by the vortices created by a vortex structure as it encounters an increase in air resistance until the velocity is reached at which synchronicity of the system is possible.  The energy it harvests to further propel the truck comes from the creation of vortices as it moves past the air, and not from the diesel fuel put into the truck.  The  energy to propel the trout upstream didn't come from the dead trout itself.  Same thing should be for the truck example.  Only a small amount of energy is required for huge accelerations and to maintain a uniform motion or constant velocity.  This is almost a self-sustaining system.  This phenomenon naturally occurs throughout nature and doesn't break any laws of physics.

No comment MileHigh?  No scientific or mathematical rebuttal?  No references or empirical evidence showing a dead fish supplies it's own energy to move upstream?  Of course not, for your a student of the government's successful disinformation program.  If I didn't know better, I would tell you to go blow your on sail.  However, I do know better, for blowing your own sail is possible according to empirical evidence.  Once again, what is taught is contrary to the empirical evidence.

Stop the silly MIB nonsense.

How about a business rebuttal?  Why don't you go take a look, and next time you post a "solution" check the business angle also.

Your reply is a red herring.  A business rebuttal has nothing to do with a dead trout moving upstream, and without the dead trout expending any energy to do so.  The dead trout is a slap in the face for your proposed solution that the harvested energy would come from the diesel fuel put into the truck.  It is you who needs to stop the "so-called" silly MIB agent role playing for the fun of it, and not me.  However, as long as you subscribe to the teachings of mankind that is contrary to what really is, then the "so-called" silly MIB nonsense will continue due to your willful ignorance.
