It matters little whether it is capable of projecting messages in the air using a laser system of last generation, compose music or talk. What is perplexing, astonished, amused but also all those who have had the pleasure to run into this bizarre creature, is the shape of the seat, a seat similar if not identical, to that comfortable, much more intimate, its bath home.
In any case, not just a trinket of “beauty”, because the trike in the picture, which is called New Toilet Bike is powered by alternative energy drawn directly from the organic waste produced by humans, in this case by the pilot . The engine, in fact, burning biogas and turn it into mechanical energy.
It remains only to understand the dynamics of operation of the engine and the simultaneity of actions: we must stop to refuel the vehicle or, more simply, you can fill the tank without making stops?
The idea came at the top of Toto, the largest producer of health of the Rising Sun that, perhaps shaken by the crisis in post-tsnunami that hit Japan a few months ago to cope with a reduction of turnover are well thought out to diversify its activities.
A brilliant idea, no doubt, that combines the back-ground with the national company linked to the production of motorcycles.
The project, developed as part of an environmental program called “Green Challenge”, aims to halve CO2 emissions by 2017. Toilet Bike Neo started on October 6 from Kitakyushu, will make a promotional tour of more than 960 km, which ends in a few weeks in Tokyo.
