Single Person Pod Autos

Sanu K R Has Designed Transportation for the Future

Designer Sanu K R has designed a transportation vehicle that looks like it's out of a futuristic movie. After receiving his education from the Keltron Advanced Design Center in India, Sanu went on to design a variety of items, from household tools to single person flotation devices.

This particular design is a single-person pod that is slim, and has just enough room for someone to sit in. Instead of a steering wheel, this vehicle is controlled by a joystick, similar to the way someone plays a video game. To get in and out of the solo pod, one must open the circular doors, which resemble that of a submarines.

The single-person pod designed by Sanu K R would be perfect for crowded city transportation.
