Many of the auto concept designers are trying to create best of both worlds by being inspired and transforming one means of transport to another one thereby deriving exciting results. Like the new Foiljet MR1 which on the look of it seems to have been designed for sheer fun as it has taken the best of the features of motocross bike and jet ski along with two hydrofoils and a silent energy efficient electric motor all of which together create a mind blowing effect. The motor helps the bike to be raise out of water thereby giving maximum fun to the rider. A nice and cool concept for fun in the waters!

This new concept by Jason Hill and Nathan Armstrong is carrying forward the philosophy identified in Aptera 2e. This environmentally sound beauty made for zipping on the waters is a concept that Tamarack Lake Electric Company would like to be associated with. The energy variant in this boat is solar powered Loon and this giving the boat a new signature look. Also since, the twin hulls have been integrated to the deck, it is more rigid but the weight is also kept on the lower side. The best thing being that everything right from the wood to the solar panels all are made of eco friendly material. A nice and cool design though!

We live in a technologically advanced era where every day we find new inventions or designs meant to ensure longer lives for, we humans. On these lines comes Hyper, which is a lifesaver system designed to detect abnormality in heartbeat arising due to swimming within the given scope area. It is designed to come to rescue, if it detects any such situation via hydroelectric energy, thereby minimizing the chances of loss of life. That’s not all, the other skills that this device has is that it is a music player with emote lights which comes live when the device is ‘off duty’.

The electronics market today is more and more concentrating in designing products that are not just good to look at but also possess other features like, being light weight, thin, wire less, water proof and also shock resistant. This technology is termed as nano-technology which surely puts the old adage that good things come in small packages, hence this technology which is still in its nascent stage as there is still research happening and more features being added and developed, it will be good for 3 to 4 years before we can actually see the technology affecting our daily lives.
