Alternative types of transport
Jetpack
The new flying machine for
employment by water sports
– the jet backpack Jetlev
R200, capable to lift the
person on height about nine
metres, was presented by the
American inventors, reports
Cihan
Flight occurs at the expense
of powerful emission of huge
streams of the water forced
by the powerful engine, built
in a backpack.
Solowheel
The Solowheel is the latest
advancement in electric vehicles:
an electric unicycle with gyro-
sensors to help the rider maintain
balance. Steer with your feet, and
control your speed simply by
leaning. Lean forward to speed
up; lean backward to slow down
or stop.
Externally, the Solowheel consists
of a wheel and two foot platforms.
Internally, the gyro-sensor inside
the Solowheel detects angle
changes to maintain balance.
Fiik
Whether you just ride to
the beach for a surf check,
head out to off-road dirt, or
stick to hard-surface
speed styling around the
neighbourhood, there’s a
FiiK Electric Skateboard
perfectly matched to you,
and your style.
AirBoard
It's easy to learn and simple
manoeuvres are achieved with just a
little practice. By adjusting your
balance and changing your weight
from one side to the other you can
turn from 180º to 360º. It can take
you to new heights of
extreme fun and you can make it as
easy or as difficult to ride as you like.
Whether you want to simply have a
ride or get a little more out of your
own ability by trying out different
moves and testing boundaries its up
to you because the AIRBOARD will
give back whatever you can
dish out!
EDWARD
Students of Adelaidsky
University have created a
strange vehicle which works on
an electricity. Most of all it is
similar to an invalid carriage
which has been modernized to
unrecognizability. Nevertheless,
possibilities of this
"electroskateboard" are rather
interesting. Plus to everything,
sitting with the passenger is
supported by nothing, it is self-
balancing.
