Eco Factor: Electric backpack harness system concept for urban transportation
After gathering appreciation for his flying bicycle lane, the Kolelinia, the Bulgarian architect Martin Angelov is back again with another wild idea. This time around, he presents a backpack harness system that is latest form of urban transportation. Till now you have seen only spider man fly around the city using his network of web, but now you too can fell that divine power.
Based on Kolelinia, Angelov’s new concept comes equipped with a network of wires strung all around the city. In order to provide efficient urban transport to the user, each individual is given a backpack consisting of a harness, a battery bag, and a light engine that runs on the Kolelinia wire mechanism.
The only thing required from the user is fastening to the battery-powered harness, jump onto a wire and fly to your desired destination. This innovative mean of city transport apart from avoiding traffic and accidents will also reduce carbon-emission significantly. In case the rider needs to change directions, they can do it easily as the taut steel wires would end at every intersection. Sounding a little crazy though, it is certainly very cool.
