The Terrestrial Shrub Rover by Jason Shull is a go kart adorned with a fiberglass dome and fake shrubbery. The electric-powered, stake-out vehicle, which debuted at Grounds for Sculpture, is a small, single person surveillance unit that will allow you to spy on others fairly undetected.
Whether you find the Terrestrial Shrub Rover to be creepy or creative, there is obviously a market for such things. I think it would be more effective if the shape was more natural, though, instead of a perfectly trimmed cube.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Covert Technology
- Opportunities for further development in surveillance technology that can blend in with natural environments.
- Stealth Vehicles
- Innovation in stealth vehicles designed for covert surveillance.
- Fiberglass Innovations
- Advancement in the use of fiberglass as material for covert technology.
Sectors Adopting This
- Security
- An industry that can benefit from the development of efficient and discreet surveillance equipment.
- Law Enforcement
- Opportunities for law enforcement to improve stake-out operations through the use of discreet vehicle technologies.
- Art Installation
- The Art Industry can benefit from incorporating the use of discreet technology into installations to surprise and engage audiences.
