Casual Design and Scheme

Cityscape - Proposed View
Posted 20 May 2015 12:24
The scheme for my transport is that there ill be a casual what can hold and cater for four people comfortably. The capsules are equipped with wifi and screens so they can communicate with other pods if need be. There are rotating wheels that are electromagnetically charged and stick to the roads, these wheel scan also rotate 360 degrees enabling the pods to move vertically up the side of buildings at the same velocity, this is cause by magnetic pads being placed every 20 yards on the road.

The technology behind my scheme is that the elevated strips with the automatic cars will be electromagnetically charged. The wheels that at are either end of the automated capsules are magnetic and as they pass over the road they gain charge due to there being magnetic pads every 20 years on the road. This electromagnetic charge enables the pods to travel vertically with the same velocity as if they were travelling horizontally

Watching minority report gave me the inspiration for my scenario with having the vehicles that are automatic and electric. The basic scheme is that there will be manually driven cars that are driven manually by people and then there is the elevated highways around 30ft above the normal highways that have the automatic pods. The pods can travel vertically up the side of buildings, similar to Minority Report, and have parking bays on the roofs where they drop off the passengers.

For my research for modern transportation systems in futuristic cities I watched iRobot and Minority Report.
Both these films use the automatic driving systems which is what I am aiming for in my scenario.
Segregation between manually driven cars and automatically driven cars is what i have taken from these films. The automatic cars will be elevated above the normal traffic
