Aiolos Futures Green Energy Vehicle Design by Kyoung Soo Na - It is interesting how when needed man can turn an adversity into advantage and a foe into a friend with innovation and creativity. Wind around us has constantly been viewed as a negative factor that causes friction in case of speeding vehicles and reduces speed. Hence all the work on aerodynamic designs to ensure that drag is kept to a minimum. But industrial designer Kyoung Soo Na has decided to turn this handicap into an energy source.
Aiolos treats opposing flow of wind while moving on modern city roads as an asset as its in-built technology taps into air flow and uses technology similar to modern turbines to create energy. While most of us might hate driving into the wind, those who could own this futuristic-looking, pod-like vehicle will welcome it with open engines.
The energy generated through this process is fed to the battery and while initially you will need a full battery to get things rolling, the constant commutes ensure that you will never have to charge it up again from the grid. The continuous cycle of movement, wind and energy generation not only will keep you away from dependence on fossil fuel and reduce emissions, but you can also use Aiolos battery to juice up your gadgets at home if needed.
This is a real wonderful concept not only for ensuring that the roads of tomorrow are carbon emissions-free, but for the simple way in which it looks at the world around us in a different perspective. By tapping into nature’s raw potential and a very natural phenomenon that will never cease to exist, Aiolos bases its existence on a resource that will last as long as this planet.
