Hyperbike - Hybrid Pedal assisted Solar Bicycle

at 5:27 am. Filed under DIY Hacks, Electronic Hacks

 

This Hyperbike looks like it would work well in the long sunny days of summer, the batteries should have a decent charge by the time it is needed for the trip home.

"The Hyperbike feasibility study will investigate the influence of emerging storage and electric machinery and control technologies on electric bicycles (PEDELECS and work bikes). New opportunities arise from new efficient and lightweight electric machines, inverters (buck-boost) and high power and high energy densities with double layer capacitators and Li-Ion (Polymer) batteries."

    I like the leading wing using air pressure to keep the front end on the ground from the excessive acceleration.

    Now if you were commenting on this silly Water Rocket reaches Orbit thing ( http://hackedgadgets.com/2008/02/19/canadian-inventor-to-launch-bottle-rocket-into-orbit/ ) I’d agree with you; otherwise, that comment was uncalled for.

    um…if you crash then you will be decapitated by the sharp solar panel sitting precariously at neck level.

    I guess v2.0 will work on the ergonomics aspect of this vehicle.

    It’s a Cow Catcher for Pedestrians, you hit ‘em and it scoops them up throwing them up and over your head.

    Oh come on, this is just plain goofy.
