subject: DFJ NanoCar: The Future [print this page] The thought of a Nano car blows my mind, why? You need to know what a NanoCar is. A NanoCar is one billionth the size of a regular car and it is considered to function as a normal automobile.
How the NanoCar works.The NanoCar uses solar cells to run on which are mounted to the vehicle itself. The energy from the solar cells is transported to the NanoCar electrostatic motor or nano-batteries while running. The weight of the electrostatic motor is less than 5 nanograms. Speed of the NanoCar and its direction are controlled by an on board neutral net. The electrostatic motor also controls gear changing in the car. A chain is connected from the drive wheel's gear of the electrostatic motor to the sprockets. The NanoCar uses a nanochain for high strength, efficiency and longevity.
How the NanoCar was designed. The NanoCar has been constructed using lightweight carbon nanotubes. NanoCars contain regenerative disc brakes as well as rack and pinion steering which are attached using tie rods to the steering arm. The wheels of NanoCars are similar to that of bicycle tires. The wheels' spokes are made with nanotubes while the hub and rims are made with buckeydisks. These are covered using adipose stem cells so that the aerodynamic efficiency is increased greatly. The NanoCar body mold is fabricated using the Arryx BioRyx 200. The main chassis, optical telemetry and solar array of the NanoCar are made using a revolutionary technique process of BinOptics Corporation. Additional structures and framework have been made by Nantero Corporation using nanotube arrays with ultra long carbon. The windshield is a state of the art fixture and the heads-up display is made by FlexICs,Inc using a semiconductor with ultra low temperature.
What does this all mean? The "future" we all read about when we were children just got a little closer.
