			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Audi Avatar is a 3-seater electric supercar concept specially designed for the drivers of 2032 to enjoy the pleasure of driving that they experienced playing racing games during their childhood days. The appearance of the car is much identical with the science fiction flying cars we used to watch. This futuristic car concept features 4 extremely powerful in-wheel electric motors powered by supercharge-ion batteries. The ultra lightweight aerodynamic body along with the powerful backend, it can accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 2.9 seconds and can achieve the top speed of over 360km/h with responsive handling.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept1.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept3.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p><span id="more-5417"></span><br />
Some explanation from Edwin :<br />
The exterior desing of the car is inspired by the form of fabric blown in the wind. The form also carries traces of the historical Auto Union Type C Streamline race.</p>
<p>There are no conventional doors on the car, but instead, inspired by the jet fighters, there are three glass canopies. The main canopy opens forward together with the steering wheel and the dashboard; the two passengers’ canopies open backwards; and a side panel on the bodywork opens downwards to act as a step, making the event of getting in and out of the cockpit very special and easy.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept2.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept4.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p>The interior is simply one continuous sheet, starting from the dashboard, then being folded and bended to create floor carpet and seat.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept5.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p>The interior of the car is as simple and futuristic as the exterior. Single sheet transparent LCD dashboard displays all the essential data such as speed and mileage. The screen in the center of the steering wheel displays digital map. The information can also be projected on the canopy by a head up display. The<br />
whole driving experience would be like flying a fighter jet. There is a small but handy luggage space behind the driver seat for handbags and suitcases. It is also an arm rest for the passengers.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept6.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept7.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p>Four wheels are housed inside the car’s four “legs”. Each wheel contains an Audi In-wheel Electric Drive Unit, making the car an evolution in Audi’s trademark “Quattro” all time four-wheel-drive system. The long range Supercharge-ion battery which powers the in-wheel motors are separated into two packs located in front of as well as behind the cockpit, creating a perfect 50:50 weight distribution of the car for excellent handling.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img class="aligncenter" src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/audi-avatar-car-concept8.jpg" alt="audi avatar car concept" /></p>
<p>Specifications:<br />
Length: 4480 mm<br />
Width: 1900 mm<br />
Height: 1060 mm<br />
Wheel base; 3048 mm<br />
Weight: 800 kg<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Xbox 720 is a concept Xbox console specially designed to meet the next generation extreme gaming requirements with quite an extraordinary look. The design is not similar from any aspect with other previous consoles, which would be a debating issue among many designers. But when it is about the kids, they will just say ‘wow’ and go for it because of its unique look and prospective functionality. The designer has put his full effort to make it futuristic and the final outcome is a UFO shaped Xbox console with mystical curved metal bars along with a majestic greenish liquid light on top.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Moléculaire concept is actually a marriage of science and cooking, which is actually a 3D molecular food printer. This device is inspired by chefs who painstakingly and scientifically experiment with food to surprise the guests and provoke innovative ideas of cooking. The Moléculaire simplifies the existing hectic, tough and time consuming process of food experiment with this Computer Numerical Control (CNC) food printer for both domestic and professional kitchens. This gadget works with a layer by layer printing method using small elements from diverse ingredients, whilst providing accuracy, simplicity, repeatability and great tasting food. Vote for Moleculair <a href="http://www.electroluxdesignlab.com/2009/08/24/top-8-finalists-announced/">here</a>.</p>

Interview with Nico :</p>
<p><strong>What was the inspiration for your concept?</strong><br />
The inspiration was the experimental approach to molecular cooking. Even after several decades of molecular cuisine, it still seems to be an exclusive game for specialists. So it became my main goal to bring some of the fantastic possibilities and ideas of molecular cooking to all ambitious cooks with an easy to use, affordable appliance.</p>
<p><strong>How does your concept fit into this year’s competition theme “Designs for the next 90 years”?</strong><br />
I think the idea of molecular cooking is forward-looking, but the procedures and methods of preparing molecular dishes are still conventional. I would like to change this with my concept. At first, the idea of printing food seems to be something straight out of a science-fiction movie, but on second thought it is not unrealistic at all. I even think that Moléculaire could be the future kitchen tool that opens up possibilities for food-makers interested in molecular cooking.</p>
<p><strong>What are the main consumer benefits of your concept?</strong><br />
Moléculaire is a futuristic kitchen appliance that offers several new possibilities to professional chefs as well as home users. It’s based on a layer-by-layer printing technique that arranges small particles from a set of ingredients. Within minutes, it prints out three-dimensional desserts, complex structures, shapes for molecular dishes, and patterns for decorating a meal. In addition, it’s easy to use. You simply insert a blister pack into the reservoir, place Moléculaire on top of a plate, and press the start button. Users can also create their own recipes with special software and their own ingredients. Ambitious users can download recipes and share them with other users in an online community.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/moleculaire-food-printer3.jpg" alt="moleculaire food printer" /></p>
<p><strong>Describe the consumer research behind your concept.</strong><br />
I conducted interviews with chefs and did a lot of research on the Internet. These approaches helped me to understand users’ interests, concerns, wishes, needs and desires. The outcome shaped my initial ideas and helped them grow. The most difficult thing about designing for the future is predicting the possible social and technological developments (their direction and speed). Therefore, it was very useful to read reports like sociological studies about cooking and future scenarios about the development of new technologies.</p>
<p><strong>What kind of materials would you use to build your concept?</strong><br />
For my concept, I would use polycarbonate as the main material. I plan on applying this material in three different variations, each providing the right characteristics for the different parts of my design. Transparent polycarbonate can be used for the window, black tinted for the lid/display, and white for the body. The robotic printer arm and head could be made from aluminum. A blue (O)LED backlight accentuates the processes inside the printer.</p>
<p><strong>Who is your favorite designer?</strong><br />
I don‘t have a favorite designer.</p>
<p><strong>What are your career goals?</strong><br />
After I graduate in 2010, I want to gain more professional experience in a product-design company. In the long term, I want to further develop my conceptual and strategic skills and step into product-related design management.</p>
<p>Designer : Nico Kläber</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Stream concept is actually an amalgamation of Experience Modules (Memories, Media, Creations, Connections, Games, Documents), the Core Component, a Portable Display of 3.5”, Component Modules (processors, graphics, power, memory), Charging Cradle with Universal Charging Base. By creating this modular system, many advantageous features were introduced over the former products. This Steam adaptive system is more expandable and portable than any other current systems and it is offering more personal and natural experience for the user in a more user friendly environment. It can be a camera phone, a games console or an ultra-portable laptop, what the users desires it to be.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/the-stream-concept1.jpg" alt="the stream concept" /></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/the-stream-concept2.jpg" alt="the stream concept" /></p>
<p><span id="more-2001"></span><br />
Barton explanations :<br />
Firstly is the idea that people can have only what they need, when they need it. This is due to the distinct separation of a computer’s functions into six categories called ‘experiences’. Currently, if a user wishes to purchase a computer purely for documenting and internet they must accept that it will come with processing power and features well beyond these needs. With the Stream concept, however, users would purchase only the Connections and Documents modules as well as the Core Component to perform only these functions. The Connections module also acts as a phone, which leads to the second benefit of this system.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/the-stream-concept3.jpg" alt="the stream concept" /></p>
<p>Many users today are faced with both an overlap of functions, content and components. In the previous example, the user’s computer would be capable of making calls through VOIP (a technology most likely to overtake traditional GSM networks), however there is no way of taking this one component of the machine with them. Instead, they must purchase another product &#8211; a phone &#8211; to fulfill this need. But now they have two devices capable of making calls, browsing the internet, emailing and taking photos as well as two interfaces to learn. Another example is how users have music on both their computer and a portable device such as an iPod. Multiply this over the abundance of consumer products we possess, and the problem worsens exponentially. However because of the Experience Modules and the adaptive nature of Stream, this issue is eradicated. The device they use at home or the office is the same device they use in the car or on the bus. All that changes is the screen size and possibly the addition of  Component Modules.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/the-stream-concept4.jpg" alt="the stream concept" /></p>
<p>The Component Modules are just as important to the system as the Experience Modules. Users who require greater processing power for activities such as gaming or high end design, still purchase the Core Component but also the necessary Component Modules to meet their needs. The Experience Modules are designed relative to their function. For example the Games and Connections modules have far more complex logic boards, capable of wireless connections to more powerful processors. This ensures that the price of the system is fair across all desired functions or experiences.</p>

<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/the-stream-concept10.jpg" alt="the stream concept" /></p>
<p>The Stream system is more portable and expandable than current systems, it offers a more natural and personal experience for the user and is more environmentally friendly in doing so. It can be an ultra-portable laptop, camera-phone, or games console. It is what the user wants it to be.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Usage of green energy is the top most priority for people who are conscious about their responsibility towards the nature and environment. Keeping this in mind the mPower system has been developed which generates huge energy at minimal effort. The slender body of the device and leaf like tip resembles the structure of a large leaf. The color is green to enhance its organic nature. The steppers at the bottom are also shaped like leaves with the similar designs. Using this unique product you can save the natural resources and a large amount of money spent on electricity at the same time.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/mpower1.jpg" alt="empowers people to create electricity" /></p>
<p>mPower consists of 2 units: Generation and Collection.</p>
<p>mPower Generation is a plant-shaped human-powered unit that produces electricity for immediate and future use. Users access their account using fingerprint recognition, stand on two pads at the base of the unit, and shift their weight from one pad to the other every ten seconds. The system, developed to take up the least amount of a user’s time and effort, can be adapted for the handicapped. A small portion of the electricity generated is used to power the interactive touch-screen at the top of the unit, which offers a broad range of informational services pre-customised by each user. The remaining majority of the electricity generated is sent to the city’s main power plant, to be used or stored. At their convenience, users receive payment for the electricity they generated by accessing their account at mPower Collection.</p>
<p>mPower Collection is a unit that, using the same fingerprint recognition technology, distributes payment and allows for account customisation to users of mPower Generation.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/mpower2.jpg" alt="empowers people to create electricity" /></p>
<p><span id="more-1159"></span><br />
mPower taps into our greatest natural resource: people. Rather than expending energy to create more, mPower harnesses the excess energy we generate by providing a platform for individuals and companies to create electricity, make money, and improve lives. By offering payment to individuals, including those that are homeless, in exchange for a few minutes of minimal movement via a free-to-use system available to everyone, economic and environmental sustainability and empowerment is made available by involving citizens in generating what has become one of our most essential needs: electricity.</p>
<p>mPower units are established by electric companies. Businesses pay electric companies to advertise on mPower Generation touch-screens; these ads are geared to individuals who previously expressed interest in particular products/services as per information entered upon account set-up, thus negating . This negates the need for expensive market research, PR and advertising campaigns. Electric companies pay consumers for generating electricity via mPower; these payments are competitive with fees paid by consumers for power provided by the same electric companies.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/mpower3.jpg" alt="empowers people to create electricity" /></p>
<p>The base of the unit consists of two pads, each mounted on a hydraulic cylinder. The cylinders are connected by a micro-hydro turbine. When a person steps onto one of the pads, the resulting pressure forces fluid from one cylinder into the other, causing it to rise. The more a person repeats the movement of shifting his/her weight from one pad to the other, the more electricity is generated. This system can be replaced with piezoelectric pads or other technologies as appropriate.</p>
<p>In addition to the exercise users get while generating electricity, they can also benefit from services available on Generation’s interactive network, including news, community events, traffic information, public transportation information, calendar, time, date, music, weather, radio, product and service information, mobile device charging, internet, widgets, city maps, games, phone calling services.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.tuvie.com/wp-content/uploads/mpower4.jpg" alt="empowers people to create electricity" /></p>
<p>mPower fits into our daily activities and ways of life without disrupting them. Generation and Collection units can be placed on, in, or near streets and pavements, public transportation waiting areas, airports and other areas where waiting is involved, parks and community areas, schools and universities, libraries, common areas in apartment blocks, and countless other places.</p>
<p>The concept of mPower can be modified to fit into homes, casinos, gyms, phone booths, internet cafes, and wherever generated energy can be used as direct power or in exchange for services and products such as climate control, public lighting, charging mobile phones and other devices. Other generation methods can also be implemented, such as walking, pedaling and running, see-sawing, swinging, and using body weight/heat. The possibilities are endless, sustainable, and empowering.</p>

<strong>[PRESS RELEASE]</strong><br />
GTbyCITROËN<br />
CROSS OVER TO THE VIRTUAL WORLDWith GTbyCITROËN, a show-car presented at the 2008 Paris Motor Show, Citroën becomes the first vehicle manufacturer to cross over to the virtual worlds: An original take on a road car, GTbyCITROËN is a style replica of a vehicle from the digital world. The car is the result of a partnership between Citroën and Polyphony, designer of the driving simulation game Gran Turismo 5 on Playstation 3. Already shipped in more than 50 million units worldwide, Gran Turismo is renowned for its quality, design and realism.<br />
In the game, GTbyCITROËN features an electric drive train powered by a fuel cell with no pollutant emissions. It is a car designed to square up to the strongest competition.</p>
<p>&#8220;GTbyCITROËN shows how the worlds of virtual and real-life motoring can join together to create a truly innovative partnership. We were delighted that Citroen approached us and gave us the opportunity to combine our creative strengths to build this very special concept car. To see the car take shape in game and then for real has been a truly unique experience as our work normally stays in the digital world. I just hope I can get behind the wheel of GTbyCITROËN and drive it on a real race track!&#8221; &#8211; Kazanori Yamauchi, President of Polyphony Digital Inc and creator of Gran Turismo</p>
<p><strong>Performance first and foremost</strong><br />
GTbyCITROËN is geared to the world of motor racing, with its dynamic styling, sculpted lines and sharp graphics. The rear end is oversized, made exaggeratedly long in order to create an effect of retinal persistence. The idea is to make the concept car even faster visually. The white-to-grey gradation on the body side further underlines this impression of continuous movement.</p>
<p><strong>Top-level driving</strong><br />
The cabin of GTbyCITROËN, designed to seat two adults, expresses the grand touring vision behind this show-car. The on-board ambience allies premium, extensively worked materials with a more high-tech effect for the driving position.</p>
<p>The layout of the low driving position was dictated by driving pleasure. The aim is for the driver to be able to concentrate on the road, assisted by a head-up display clearly displaying driving information.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/gt-citroen-at-paris-motor-show3.jpg" alt="gt citroen car concept" /></p>
<p><strong>RACING SPIRIT BY CITROËN</strong></p>
<p><strong>Power and flowing lines</strong><br />
The design of GTbyCITROËN reflects a quest for optimal aerodynamic design. The show-car is a vehicle of flowing, taut lines, stretched to the extreme. The cleanly drawn sides, ribbed at the top, and the pearlescent shade of the bodywork enhance the vehicle&#8217;s sleekly muscled looks.</p>
<p>The determined look of the front end is enhanced by wide air intakes and clear-cut horizontal headlamps. The headlamps feature penetrating blue LEDs in order to light the road effectively and keep rivals at a respectful distance! The chrome chevrons on the smooth bonnet express the Marque&#8217;s identity.</p>
<p>The carbon rearview mirrors on their finely profiled supports appear to be suspended as if to cleave the air, giving GTbyCITROËN an excellent on-road stance.</p>
<p>The large wraparound windscreen flows seamlessly into the roof and on into the rear mobile airfoil with its exaggeratedly long shape. The fast-flowing lines create the impression of a car in perpetual movement. The whole body expresses performance and continuous movement.</p>
<p>GTbyCITROËN also expresses strength and power through generous volumes, (length: 4.960m, 2.080m and height: 1.090m) underlined by strongly marked wheel arches. The diamond-effect 21-inch aluminium wheels enhance the car&#8217;s sporty personality.</p>
<p><strong>Exceptional handling</strong><br />
The interior design confirms the vehicle&#8217;s dynamic and powerful style. The interior of GTbyCITROËN, designed to seat a driver and co-driver, expresses the racing spirit of this concept. The on-board ambience allies rich, premium, extensively worked materials with a more high-tech effect for the driving position, inspired by the world of motorsports.</p>
<p>Looking beyond the spectacular visual effect, the gullwing opening of the two doors gives GTbyCITROËN a level of accessibility rarely seen on this type of vehicle. The driver and co-driver can therefore slip into their seats and get out on the track as quickly as possible.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/gt-citroen-at-paris-motor-show4.jpg" alt="gt citroen car concept" /></p>
<p>The dark interior of this show-car is a surprise, compared with the light bodywork. Upholstered in black leather with subtle touches of rare materials such as copper and steel, the cabin of GTbyCITROËN is distinctly sporty.<br />
Two padded racing seats upholstered in dark leather, each fitted with a four-point harness, enfold the driver and passenger for exceptional driving sensations. Placed low down to highlight the impression of speed, the elegant seats are a perfect fit with the rest of the interior.The top-stitched leather of the door panels and floor adds to the opulence of the interior.</p>
<p>The driving position expresses the spirit of competition. The design was objectively guided by the motivation to win.</p>
<p>The dashboard, with its clean uncluttered design, flows into the receding lines of an imposing copper sculpture. The thrusting modern lines of the sculpture become the central tunnel of the vehicle, illustrating the power of GTbyCITROËN and appearing to catalyse its strength.</p>
<p>Created in a twist of this same copper sculpture, the leather-and-steel steering wheel also reflects the sporting spirit of the cabin.</p>
<p>To promote maximum concentration, the driver of GTbyCITROËN has a head-up display for driving information. Using red LEDs, this system projects key driving information – such as speed and navigation data – onto the windscreen in the driver&#8217;s direct line of vision.</p>
<p>The head-up display makes a significant contribution to safety with its direct read-out. Drivers assimilate data more quickly and do not have to look away from the road.</p>
<p>Aerodynamics optimised to combine performance and driving sensations<br />
Special emphasis was placed on the aerodynamics and flowing design of GTbyCITROËN, these being key Citroën values. The objective was to enhance the vehicle&#8217;s dynamics and to create exceptional driving sensations.</p>
<p>Looking beyond its taut, dynamic lines, this racing car features innovative equipment such as enlarged air intakes at the front, a flat underside, and a mobile spoiler and air diffuser at the rear. All these features play an active role in reducing lift and – above all – drag, to pin the car to the ground.</p>
<p>With its flowing lines, original architecture and its use – in the game – of what is potentially the best environmental technology, GTbyCITROËN embodies the sporting spirit as seen by Citroën and underlines the Marque&#8217;s ambitions to meet new challenges.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Renault Ondelios is a concept car especially designed for long distance travel and will be displayed at 2008 Paris Motor Show. This style of the car is enthused partly by an aircraft. Its slippery and low drag body and a canopy-style will surely catch your attention. You cannot ignore its boomerang shaped tail lights which add to the style and overall look of Renault Ondelios. The butterfly-type side doors are extremely amazing giving it a shape of aircraft. This car can accommodate 6 people and individual seats are arranged in 3 rows of paired seats. Passengers will be having their own Samsung interactive portable multimedia devices for sharing data or playing multiplayer games. So, overall Renault is a luxurious car for those who can afford it.</p>

[Press Release]<br />
<strong>ONDELIOS: AN ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY LONG-HAUL JOURNEY</strong></p>
<p>The Paris Motor Show sees the wraps come off Renault&#8217;s top-of-the-range concept car Ondelios designed for lovers of long-haul travel who set store by comfort and refinement. Ondelios epitomizes Renault&#8217;s vision of the high-end crossover, combining a comfortable ride with respect for the environment. Clear illustrations of that vision are the vehicle&#8217;s ethereal design, its interior layout, and an original hybrid powertrain.</p>
<p><strong>A sleek design that answers the call of the open road</strong><br />
The 4.8-metre-long, 1.6-metre high Ondelios has drawn inspiration from the world of aviation design to deliver high drag efficiency and a Cd of just 0.29. This long-distance voyager boasts sleek, smooth, amazingly fluid lines that make it appear as though it glides over the ground. It embodies Renault&#8217;s vision of high-end car. &#8220;Ondelios is inspired by motion rather than speed and is a whole new response to the call of the open road,&#8221; enthuses Patrick Le Quément, Renault&#8217;s Design Director.</p>
<p>The aluminium-finish grille is flanked by headlamp units that also suggest flowing motion, while its high-performance LED headlights are both longer lasting and more efficient. Another feature of Ondelios&#8217; aerodynamic styling is the boomerang-shaped tail lights. They are built into the bodywork and ringed with air extractors to control the flow of air from the wheel arches. The glazed roof further emphasises the vehicle&#8217;s airy look and feel, bathing the interior in natural light. The steeply raked windscreen, which extends well down the bonnet, further accentuates this ethereal feel.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renault-ondelios-car-concept3.jpg" alt="renault ondelios futurisitic car concept" /></p>
<p>&#8220;We think of it as made from a single material, where the body and glazed areas merge into one. Ondelios is a glimpse of what the automobile might be in the medium term future,&#8221; adds Patrick Le Quément. The butterfly-type side doors, which also feature an extensive glazed area, add a further touch of elegance to the car&#8217;s overall styling. They swing out and upwards as the sills slide down to facilitate ingress.</p>
<p>The dark blue anthracite of the bodywork blends perfectly with the tinted glazed area, making the car look as if it were all of a piece and a single colour. The tailgate&#8217;s upper section rounds off the sleek, aerodynamic lines with a profiled glareshield that slides inwards to air and cool the cabin.</p>
<p>Ondelios sits on seven-spoke, 23-inch aluminium alloy wheels which contribute to its profiled styling. The propeller-like hubs draw airflow from the sides of the car to prevent turbulence. They operate in conjunction with the rim-side brake discs to ensure they suck in air effectively.</p>
<p>The sleek sidewalls of the large diameter 255/40 Michelin Pilot Sport tyres deliver outstanding drag performance. Their tread pattern is designed to minimise deformation of the contact patch while on the move to help curb rolling resistance. The tread has efficient, active flow channels which, together with the wide circumferential<br />
groove that helps clear water, strengthen the image of a high-end, high-tech tyre.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renault-ondelios-car-concept4.jpg" alt="renault ondelios futurisitic car concept" /></p>
<p><strong>Business-class comfort for a long-haul journey</strong><br />
The elegance of the Ondelios interior is in harmony with the call of the open road suggested by its exterior. To begin with, its layout is designed to profit from all the available space. There are three rows of seats that offer individual seating for six. With their cantilever mounts they give the impression of floating, while their kinematics are redolent of airplane seats. The electrically adjustable backs fold into comfortable, business-class positions, while occupants can deploy and retract their footrests at will. Although their slim lines speak of lightness, they are<br />
designed, like giant leaves, to hug their occupants who can curl up in them to enjoy the comfort and support they afford. The height of the seats is carefully designed to ensure occupants are perfectly at ease when they talk to each other.</p>
<p>Unlike conventional door opening systems, the doors are hinged to the roof, which makes getting into the car extremely easy. The second row of seats slide forward and folds down to facilitate access to the third row.</p>
<p>In addition to seating comfort, the cabin exudes a highly refined ambience. The materials used are drawn from contemporary interior design and give the impression of sitting in a lounge on wheels. They blend soft, supple textures like light grey leather and fabric, as seen on the dashboard, seats and door panels. The colour of the seatbacks blends gradually from ochre to purple, further enhancing the sense of security and comfort.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renault-ondelios-car-concept5.jpg" alt="renault ondelios futurisitic car concept" /></p>
<p>Interior features and fittings are both modern and intuitive. The ergonomically designed controls, in keeping with Renault&#8217;s touch design approach, afford users efficient, comfortable ease of use.</p>
<p>The ample, flowing yet sober design of the broad dashboard echoes the car&#8217;s aerodynamic exterior. It is further highlighted by a roomy, suspended stowage compartment which is protected by a lit shell, while all the dashboard&#8217;s functional components are particularly user-friendly:<br />
- active display skins show driver aid and ride information;<br />
- a monitor at the base of the windscreen displays the different menus and pictures from the<br />
door mirror cameras;<br />
- three large strip displays provide driving-related information, revs and how the hybridized<br />
drivetrain is operating;<br />
- a digital speedometer.</p>
<p>The technologies with which Ondelios is equipped enhance the collective and individual well-being of all occupants. All the passengers, including those in the back row, have their own Samsung interactive portable multimedia devices which they can use for sharing data or multiplayer gaming. Speakers are also incorporated into the headrests and a multizone HVAC system enables each passenger to set the temperature to his or her own liking.</p>
<p>The smart technologies that have gone into designing Ondelios help drivers to settle in at the wheel, include a Samsung cell phone which also acts as a hands-free door lock recognizes the driver and loads all his or her personal settings, e.g. seat-adjustment settings and favourite music. The vehicle adds a final, friendly touch in the form of the back-lit logo which lights up to show that it has recognized the driver.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renault-ondelios-car-concept6.jpg" alt="renault ondelios futurisitic car concept" /></p>
<p><strong>An environmentally friendly voyager</strong><br />
To complement the extensive work that has gone into Ondelios&#8217;s aerodynamics, some of the car&#8217;s structural parts are made from natural flax fibre for greater recyclability. In keeping with the commitment to make the car as light as possible, its body is made from carbon and the glazed areas from polycarbonate.</p>
<p>Ondelios is powered by a hybrid powerplant which combines a more powerful 205hp (150kW) version of the 2.0 dCi engine, with two 20kW electric motors at the front and rear. They operate in mild hybrid mode, giving the engine extra boost as required. They use a brake and boost system, recovering energy during braking then delivering it to the engine to boost acceleration. The front motor also uses fuel-saving stop-start technology.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renault-ondelios-car-concept7.jpg" alt="renault ondelios futurisitic car concept" /></p>
<p>The electric motor mounted on the rear axle drives the rear wheels when the ESP sensors detect a loss of traction, thus giving Ondelios the capability of a 4WD vehicle. The car is equipped with a lithium-ion battery that can deliver power of up to 4kW/h. With torque of 450Nm between 1,700 and 3800rpm, the diesel engine provides comfort and flexibility at all engine speeds for long-distance driving pleasure. The 2.0 dCi unit takes Ondelios from a standing start to 100kph in just 7.8 seconds. Driving through a seven-speed, double-clutch gearbox, it affords outstanding driving pleasure, while keeping fuel consumption at a frugal 4.5 litres/100km and CO2 emissions at a lowly 120g/km – very impressive for a top-of-the-range vehicle. Similarly, the body, chassis design and hybrid powertrain contribute decisively to protecting the environment.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://imagesme.net/tuvie/renault-ondelios-car-concept8.jpg" alt="renault ondelios futurisitic car concept" /></p>
<p>Ondelios is a long-distance travel-loving aerodynamic crossover born for the open road. It is proof that caring for occupants and the environment is entirely compatible. Ondelios is a concept car that illustrates Renault&#8217;s vision of the high-end car of the near future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>“You can see them but they can’t see you”. I believe this is what <a href="http://eyeclopsnightvision.com">EyeClops Night Vision Goggles</a> are all about. These night vision goggles enable your explorer to see in absolute darkness. With the help of EyeClops portable microscope attached atop the goggles, your adventure can see what hides in the dark and produce close-ups of whatever they spotlight on. This product uses actual night vision technology. I bought these night vision goggles at $79.99 and I guess they are really cheap as compared to what they provide us. These goggles come from the company “EyeClops” which is known for manufacturing both educational and technological toys for kids. According to me, Night Vision goggle is the most impressive product they have ever made.</p>

These goggles are powered by real infra-red driven night vision technology which you must have seen in movies or games. I am addicted to Splinter Cell (PC Game) and I loved that night vision part by using goggles. Therefore, I always wanted to have one for myself. EyeClops has made my dream come true and the best part is I am able to afford them from my pocket money itself. These goggles are perfect if you want to play hide and seek in the dark as they enable clear visibility for up to 50 feet (15 m) in complete darkness. Not only this, if you are a camping kid then these goggles can help you out in pitch blackness. You require 4 “AA” batteries to keep these infra-red stealth goggles running.</p>

<p>EyeClops Goggles come equipped with two viewing modes to go with any situation. First viewing mode is known as Maximum Surveillance Mode which is best suited to long range recon and exploration mission whereas other mode is Close Proximity Stealth Mode for mission demanding a closer look. So, get ready to take your mission to the next level with EyeClops Night Vision Goggles. You can easily adjust these night vision goggles with the help of head strap and padding for comfort around the face. You will also get one safety breakaway power cord and a counter weighted battery pack. Company has recommended this product for children aged 6+.I personally feel if you are looking for a product that can offer you 100% fun and entertainment then EyeClops is the best one because I have myself tried and tested them. These are easily available online on different websites. After going through this <a href="http://eyeclopsnightvision.com/eyeclops-night-vision-review">EyeClops Night Vision Review</a>, you must have felt the need of having these goggles to accomplish your adventurous missions.
