Screwdriver-powered vehicle “EX”
Using two 18-volt-screwdrivers as engines, the “EX” accelerates its driver up to 30 km/h.
Screwdriver-powered vehicle “EX”
The driver lies headlong on his three-wheeled vehicle and accelerates the “EX” with sprawled out arms up to 30 km/h.
Eccentrically is also how the steering works: A specially developed joint tilts the back wheel and leans the driver´s weight dynamically into the curve.
You can find more photos/info on the vehicle and the design/build process via the pages of Nils Ferber.
