Submersible Vehicle Concept

Manatee by Eduardo Galvani is Made for Recreational Purposes

— July 4, 2014 — Autos
Manatee by Eduardo Galvani, a student and visual artist born in Santa Catarina, Brazil, is a concept submersible vehicle. For those who follow this budding designer's work, it may seem slightly familiar. That is because the schematics are very similar to his Fly Citycopter Plane, that is conceived of earlier this year.

Deciding not to stray too far from a good thing, Manatee by Eduardo Galvani boasts the same spherical shape and glass design that its predecessor has. As though made with a single person in mind, together people will be able to traverse sky and sea with ease. Perhaps Galvani will design a similar road vehicle next. Made with recreation in mind, Manatee has a simple interface that anyone can get the hang of.
Trend Themes
1. Submersible Recreational Vehicles - As advancing technology allows for more efficient and innovative underwater transportation, the development of recreational submersible vehicles are likely to increase in popularity, creating opportunities for manufacturers and designers of aquatic leisure equipment.
2. Seamless Design Incorporating Spherical Shapes and Glass - The utilization of spherical shapes and a glass design by vehicle designers may become more popular and is likely to open up opportunities for innovative glass and manufacturing companies that can develop materials that are able to withstand high-pressure deep-sea environments.
3. Intuitive User Interfaces - As technology advances, the importance of designing intuitive interfaces increases and opens up potential opportunities for UX designers capable of creating user-friendly platforms for drivers of submersible vehicles.
Industry Implications
1. Leisure and Tourism - The growth of recreational submersible vehicles presents opportunities for companies involved in leisure and tourism services that can incorporate aquatic experiences into their offerings.
2. Manufacturing - The rise in popularity of companies that design submersible vehicles may create opportunities for manufacturing companies that can produce the parts and components needed to build these vehicles.
3. Glass and Materials Manufacturing - The increasing demand for submersible vehicles that use glass as a design material presents opportunities for glass and materials manufacturing companies that can create sustainable, high-tech materials that can function under deep-sea pressure.
