Zonda might look like this, if was born in late of '60s

It is very interesting when talking about the design of a supercar. After Turkish designer Oguz Sipahioglu wowed us with his vision of a Pagani Zonda built in the 1980s, now he brought us to see these Italian supercar further back in past time.

This time in late of 1960s, when the retro Zonda would have been fighting against the 'original' supercar like the Lamborghini Miura that debuted at the Geneva Motor Show in 1966.

While there are some definite design similarities between the 'hypothetical' Zonda and the 'real' Miura, the Istanbul-based designer has great skills and done a fine job at maintaining distinct Pagani styling on the car. With this 1960s interpretation of the Pagani Zonda, he’s had to do more work to adapt the formula to the period.

It’s slightly less recognizably a Zonda than the newer variant, but it’s probably the prettier of the two. What’s remarkable in the designer's achievement is that he’s managed to retain a Pagani-like feel to the design, meaning it doesn’t seem inspired by another manufacturer’s style.

And you’d expect that with these kind of turning-back-the-clock hypothetical renderings. The result of undertaking something like Oguz has here can be disastrous, but we’re happy to report this, like the other, is a stunner too!
Again, it’s not all about the design as it’s also about the period look of the presentation. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | BEHANCE]

Super strong gloves designed by GM and NASA

Has recently been developed a glove that is designed specifically for astronauts, in order to perform mechanical repairs without having to suffer muscle fatigue when it arrives on Earth. The technology is called RoboGlove originally developed by NASA and General Motors in 2012, now GM’s working with a Swedish medical technology company named Bioservo Technologies.

The glove is using actuators and artificial tendons to mimic the human's hand muscles, and is an example of "soft exoskeleton" technology, or a lightweight device that can improve the strength and durability of the user. 

And as quoted of Wired, the super glove was strong enough to lift up to 40 pounds and dexterous enough to tap out texts on the smartphone.

Bioservo Technologies will combine RoboGlove with their grip technology, named SEM (Soft Extra Muscle). GM said that they intend to try these products at factories in the US, where it will provide additional grip strength for the factory workers.

The role of NASA in the development of this glove itself is intended to assist the Robonaut 2 in repairing the International Space Station (ISS). Glove is also inspired by the robot, but combined with the flexibility of a human hand.

Pressure sensors in the glove will detect when the user is holding an object, then trigger a synthetic tendon to reinforce the strength of the grip of the user. With the presence of RoboGlove could lend a robot's hand to help the heavy work.
In the development of this glove is not the first, it turned out that other companies, including Hyundai, BMW, and Panasonic has also developed the exoskeleton prototypes with varying complexity to help the manufacturing workers.. *** [EKA | FROM VARIOUS SOURCES | WIRED]

A classy board tracker made of the famous Italian wasp

A Vespa scooter has a very special value to users. Thus making them very inspired and admire the classic impression of this scooter. Well, in the hands of a modifier named Mujamil aka Jamil of Scooter Anak Rawa Belong (SAKRAL) who have unique and eccentric viewpoints in the modification has managed to create the appearance of a scooter transformed into a motorcycle with a classic board tracker style.

The concept is quite unique taken base of 1989 Vespa P200XE Spartan that originally carrying its engine on the right side. Instantly, the shape and characteristics of the Vespa disappear, because in addition to applying the large-diameter tires he also customize the chassis to rely on seamless pipes 2 mm thick.

Because the engine position has been moved to the front like the European or Japanese made motorcycles in general. So the modification focus is on the construction and mechanism of a new engine mounting at the same time technically processing the engine to be able to run smoothly and comfortably.

Its upper mainframe part is made very simple so that the board tracker impression exposed by using the telescopic suspension in the front taken from the Binter Merzy and been cut 10 cm. The mainframe using a round pipe which is curved to the rear end of the rear axle, making it look simple and clean.

As for the bottom of the chassis that hold the engine using a similar material to the upper mainframe. The pattern of the bottom frame is formed of a single front down tube that branches on the front bottom of the engine, so that construction be strong and secure. 
Its seat wear handmade double spring, because the rigid mechanism at the rear and a unique engine mounting of the classy Italian board tracker(Picture from: http://adf.ly/1dLqej)
To model the engine mounting-made with three-point angle positions, such as the first holder in the bottom of the cylinder head. The second bolted firmly on the bottom cylinder while the engine cradle for three on the rear of the machine. This mechanism uses a metal plate 3 mm that are arranged according to the concept, so different in length from one holder to another holder.
The board tracker styled motorcycle is made very smooth with a touch of best supporting components. As the handlebar clamp that is attached at the bottom of the upper triangle. Including flat tank that hangs just above the chassis and single leather seater with a classic pattern as well as the double handmade spring, because of its rear wore the rigid mechanism.
