Charging Cars

Luis Pinheiro de Lima has designed a car that generates its own wireless electricity! The “Bio Top” concept car has three wheels: two in the front, and one spherical wheel in the back that offers improved maneuverability. What’s more, it actually charges the electric car battery as it goes!

If that’s not enough to float your boat (or your futuristic hover pod), check out the Bio Top’s video-game inspired steering. Forget the conventional foot-pedal gas and break system; the future of steering, according to de Lima, involves a hand controlled speed/stop system. The brakes are right there on the steering column. It looks like cruising in your Bio Top will be just like riding a bike - only about a hundred times cooler.
