1. Technology of the Future:
A Contemporary Rickshaw Fit for the
21st Century Traveler
Industrial designer Kenneth
Cobonpue transformed the
commonplace rickshaw into Eclipse, a
high-tech and stylish means of
transportation designed for the 21st
Century traveler. The three-wheeled
human-powered vehicle is ubiquitous
in South America and Asia, so the
Filipino designer decided to give it a
modern update. Flanked by circular
privacy panels made from woven
recyclable polyethylene, this cushy
rickshaw even comes with an iPhone
docking base, cup holders, and a
cooling fan.
Made by Antonela Pavel, 8th grade,
