Simple minds never dare to venture into the unknown or challenge the norm. Fortunately there are those of us who hear such critics as nothing more than noise in the the background. It is this brilliant group of visionaries that need to continue to push and challenge engineering to the limits because if we fail to do so we will begin to step into a very dry and static world.

Keep up the good work and see emotional criticism as nothing more than a jealous and childish reaction that exposes an individuals weakness and insecurity.

It is all well and good thinking of such a futuristic mode of transport, and it is another proving that what you have designed is appropriate, viable, or ergonomic or even worth mass producing due to cost, mechanics or demand. Now I know that many people will think “ well, you have to start somewhere!” and I would agree. But I would suggest starting with research in a breadth of material. For example insect locomotion is the most economic way to produce movement. So to disregard this and base you design on a “Cat” is proof that the project is grossly misguided. As for the idea that the machine symbiotically draws energy from the rider is fantastical at best. The high user positioning, I can imagine, gives the rider a good vantage point, but the problems faced with a high centre of gravity and practicalities of getting on and off would surly be more detrimental in the long run.

I believe if someone would design packaging for a “cancer cure” it would not receive the praise this project has.

The only thing that this rip-off from about 10 different post-apoco animes was “designed” to do was to draw views to this guys website, and hopefully land him a job. the thing doesn't even have the proper physical proportions to stand correctly (unless its made of some magical new material that doesn't exist yet)

A good industrial designer will present a concept with at least SOME idea of how something might work.
A bad industrial designer makes pretty CG pictures.
