Founder's Story

About Robert Daniel

“Everything I build — Beacon Contracting, Beacon Apex Technologies, and the hybrid engine work — is ultimately about family. Providing for them, protecting their future, and leaving something that might genuinely help others is the reason this work exists.”

Robert Daniel is the founder of Beacon Contracting LLC and Beacon Apex Technologies. With decades of hands-on experience in heavy civil construction and a deep personal drive to solve difficult technical problems, he is developing the SMH RF-Mist Hybrid Engine — a cleaner, more efficient approach to piston engines that uses radio-frequency energy to activate a fine saline water-mist fuel. The technology aims to deliver near-zero harmful emissions while remaining practical, scalable, and compatible with existing engine architectures. Proof-of-concept testing is currently underway, with a strong focus on producing clear demonstration results and building trusted relationships with potential partners, including interest from Japanese industry contacts.
