The EMBRIO Advanced Concept is a one- wheeled recreational and commuting vehicle for the year 2025, designed by the Canadian company Bombardier Recreational Products.

Specifications and pictures of this weird motorcycle are showed below: TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS MODEL NAME: EMBRIO Advanced Concept DEVELOPED BY:Bombardier Recreational Products STATUS: Concept YEAR: 2003 DRIVE SYSTEM: Fuel cell electric FUEL: Hydrogen LENGTH: 1,240 mm (48.8 in) WIDTH: 700 mm (27.5 in) HEIGHT: 1,200 mm (47.5 in) WEIGHT: 164 kg (360 lbs) SEATING CAPACITY: 2 FOR 2025???

Slide 17: Although the vehicle will also remain stable when motionless, with two small front wheels deployed at speeds below 20 kilometres per hour (12.5 mph). To move forward, the rider activates a trigger on the left handlebar. At a speed of 20 kilometres per hour (12.5 mph) the front wheels or “landing gear” retracts so the rider is balancing on the large single wheel. To turn the rider leans to the left or right. The brake is activated by a trigger on the right handlebar. Fuel cells running on hydrogen provide electricity for the electric motor which drives the single wheel

Slide 21: By Jennifer Maestre "My sculptures were originally inspired by the form and function of the sea urchin. The spines of the urchin, so dangerous yet beautiful, serve as an explicit warning against contact. The alluring texture of the spines draws the touch in spite of the possible consequences." "To make the pencil sculptures, I take hundreds of pencils, cut them into 1-inch sections, drill a hole in each section (to turn them into beads), sharpen them all and sew them together."
Slide 22: "I started off in the direction of prickly things when I was in my last year at Mass College of Art. It all comes from one idea I had for a box with a secret compartment that would contain a pearl. The box would be shaped like a sea urchin, made of silver. In order to open the box and reveal the secret compartment, you’d have to pull on one of the urchin’s spines. The idea was of something beautiful, sculptural, but that you wouldn’t necessarily want to touch, and that also held a secret treasure."
Slide 32: Water Bridge in Germany Six years, 500 million euros, 918 meters long.......now this is engineering!
