The SHC is a futuristic car concept that features style and aerodynamics to illustrate a clear picture of the high-performance future transportation. The selection of materials and applications has helped it to achieve the ideal weight distribution which resulted to a fast, carefully directed and cutting-edge car design.
Featured with three powertrain alternatives including a hybrid/electric option, the car has achieved the credentials of being a sports car, while being completely eco-friendly. The chassis has been made with high tensile steel and aluminum, making the car lightweight and improved handling has been ensured with aluminum suspensions that reduces unsprung mass. The air-streamed front and rear window combines hydrophobic and super-fast screen heating technology that eliminates the requirement of wipers or washers and high-intensity LED has been used on the headlights, rear lights and lower fog lights for a clear view.

The B1K concept bicycle has been designed as a race bike by incorporating various unique features aiming to make it suitable for convenient riding on different surfaces. The unique chainless design of the bike allows the rider not to worry about a chain displacing anymore and provides great control over the bike. The carbon fiber construction along with the compact shape of the bike has made it lightweight. The unique tubeless construction of the tires has made it even more functional and the rod connecting the seat and the head tube helps splitting the weight of the rider to ensure soft riding.

The Vayro is a future track concept to meet the increasing freight requirement of long-distance road haulage for the year of 2020. The design incorporates high capacity semi-trailers towed by the tractor to ensure greater productivity by large quantity of freight at a time. The sleek profile of the truck ensures minimal air resistance and the suspensions have been designed to automatically lower the whole combination by 4 inches from the drive height at speed above 55 miles/hr. The truck is powered by a hydrogen-fuelled internal combustion engine and features a power-split transmission that transmits the power electrically through an included electric generator or through a typical driveline.
Surprisingly, the truck can initiate proper countermeasures when required, such as applying the break force to avoid an imminent accident or preventing changing a lane if a collision may occur as a result. If an accident occurs, however, it takes measures to protect the road users and the driver too. The overall length of the combination is 123 feet that can carry a gross of 182,000 pounds.

Physalia is an innovative scientific architectural vessel prototype that aims to meet the need of new generation floating purification station in order to sensitize the population with sulpher and carbon free ecological tools. This amphibious vessel concept is a half earthly and half aquatic floating agora that not only deals with ecology by saving water, but also elaborates strategic solutions to sentient the fluvial network. With its various functional features, this vessel not only contributes the environment by saving water, refilling ground waters, controlling domestic, industrial and rainwater recycling, purifying agriculture pollutions (nitrates, plant health), desalinating sea water and many more, but also promotes the waterways as fluvial tourism and commercial transport, water sports, agriculture irrigation, hydro-electricity production, protection against floods, and many more.
