The next five coolhunts will be about sustainable
cities in the future. I’ve made 5 clusters of several matching coolhunts. The
first is about transport in the future sustainable cities. Right now cities are
often grid locked and traffic jams are very normal. That’s because of the
amount of cars that are driving around. A lot of accidents happen due to human
errors, can this be solved by technology?
WHAT? There are multiple solutions to this
problem and a lot of innovators are busy solving this problem. The first thing
is a SOFT Blimp Bumper Bus. (Picture 1) it’s a little bit sci fi with its
dangling tentacle chairs. It’s a new strategy that will reorganize the city to
fit better to human needs and increase the environmental contact.
Another thing is the vision of ‘The Volvo Group’. They believe that instead of offering single products the solution is in the complete transport with added costumer value. They have a ‘City Mobility Program’ in collaboration with partners. Their solution is to pay per kilometer of specified transport capacity instead of everybody owning one car. (Picture 2)

Jürgen Mayer had founded a new urban setting that is
based on using a combination of outside satellite systems and GPS systems in
cars that will supervise the immediate surroundings. (Picture 3) In that way
the car can navigate itself autonomously. Because of this all kind of
technologies that support driving like traffic lights are unnecessary.

WHY? These three signals are all very
interesting because they shine a new light on transport. Not only the products
need to be adapted, also the world around it. There is a lot of potential for
these ideas because they fulfill needs like ‘togetherness’ and ‘digitalization’.
Because of urbanization the cities are growing tremendously. Because of these
smart solutions it will become easier to move through cities faster and more
save. The quality of life will also be influenced especially the physical,
social and mental wellbeing. If people feel more save they will be more
satisfied. Thereby transport in the future will be more social orientated
because people have to work together to come up with smart mobility solutions.
That’s also why it has a lot of future growth potential.
