The TVCAT
is a concept transport system that is a
hybrid of the Ferris Wheel + tram
system. Its conception was a response to
the need for a mass transit system to
traverse the irregular topology of
Balandra Bay. Utilizing the existing
technology of both Ferris Wheels +
trams, combined with basic concepts in
physics such as
centripetal force, the TVCAT could be a
unique experience melding transportation
with
spectacle while leaving a minimal
imprint on the landscape.
ADVANTAGES:
- subject to fewer incline limitations
- transportation as an experience
- due to the flexibility of system, it
allows for the development of land in
otherwise uninhabitable locations
