Extremely high pressue injection in rocket engines.
>heat and pressure are basically the same thing at the molecular level
>slam fuel and oxidizer together at such a high pressure they auto-ignite from the collision
>do this with a small low flow-rate pump
>you now have a simple reliable ignition source for the combustion chamber
I have never done the math on it and it could take way too much pressure to be feasible but I think it's an original idea or at least one I have never seen anywhere.
