E-Horizon Project

Faire: Rome

Maker: Ass.ne Italiana Makers Automotive

 

E-Horizon Project is a project that encourages young people to be creative and take control of their future. Starting from a "Crazy Idea", the project has created a community of young motor enthusiasts with a common dream: to become part of the world of world motorsports. Through the new technologies of industry 4.0, all high school students, willing to test themselves and learn, can express their creativity and their technical knowledge, creating models of racing cars in 1:10 scale through the use of CAD software, 3D printing, microcontroller programming. Eventually they can compete with other makers, competing with the cars they create. The project includes different categories of cars to be built: - MKRS: Formula 1-style cars, electrically powered, designed and driven by school kids - Hypercar: project similar to MKRS but with cars with covered wheels - Driverless: self-driving Hypercar-style cars. At Maker Faire Rome we will bring the 2023 prototypes of the various projects plus other models we have previously made and we will hold small shows to show the capabilities of our cars and the potential of our project.

Unlike your typical baseball cap, a Bucket Hat provides protections for, not only your head, but for your ears and back of the neck.

The First Mod: bicycle-towed sailboat.

Faire: Bay Area

Maker: Paul Freedman

Home: California, United States

The First Mod is a bicycle-towed 17' sailboat capable of carrying 3-4 people on sails. It's made with relatively ultralight materials including a beautiful translucent G10 hull. The spirit of the project is to help myself and inspire others to get out into nature without needing cars and trucks. I use an electric folding bike to tow the boat to the water. The boat doesn't sit on a trailer -- the boat is the trailer. Wheels pop in to sockets on the hull. The boat's hull was built from plans, then modified to incorporate bike towing. The size and shape of the boat were chosen to be the largest possible sailboat that could still be towed to the water by bike, in order to safely sail in the chop of San Francisco Bay.
