# Ziplining City Transit The Pulse Cable Gliding System is Simple, Yet Efficient and Innovative By Amelia Roblin | Published 2012-09-12 | Autos Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-pulse-cable-gliding References: [behance.net](http://www.behance.net/gallery/The-Pulse/5006831) Matej Dubis has dreamed up a new form of transportation for big cities that ticks a lot of impressive boxes. The Pulse Cable Gliding system would take up a fraction of the space, create negligible interruptions to the fabric of streets and structures below it and use minimal external sources of energy to operate. Skyscraper stations with tiny footprints would be situated throughout the metropolis in some of the more favored locations. [Photosynthetic roofs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-electric-pavilion) would help to produce power from the sun's rays in order to lower costs and consumption by the amenities inside. Movements of the [gondola-style passenger pods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/treo) across the Pulse Cable Gliding system are generally enabled by gravity. Once the capsule crosses the halfway point at the lowest part of the cord's slack, knot mechanisms assist by pressing upwards on the line. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.0/10 - Popularity: 83% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Autos](https://www.trendhunter.com/autos) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Pulse Cable Gliding System:** The innovative Pulse Cable Gliding system presents an opportunity for disruptive innovation in urban transportation. - **Skyscraper Stations:** The concept of skyscraper stations opens up disruptive innovation opportunities in urban infrastructure and real estate development. - **Photosynthetic Roofs:** Photosynthetic roofs offer a potential disruptive innovation in sustainable energy production and reducing the carbon footprint of buildings. ### Who This Affects Most - **Urban Transportation:** The Pulse Cable Gliding system can revolutionize urban transportation, offering an innovative alternative to traditional commuting methods. - **Urban Infrastructure:** The development of skyscraper stations can create disruptive innovations in urban infrastructure, transforming the way cities are designed and built. - **Renewable Energy:** Photosynthetic roofs hold disruptive innovation potential in the renewable energy industry, providing a sustainable solution for powering buildings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Space-Saving Urban Mobility Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/project-doro.md) - [Magnetic Wall-Scaling Electric Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/trois-mobility-concept.md) - [Harmonious Cityscape Monorails](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hk-monorail-concept.md) - [Electric Transportation Concepts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-transportation-concept.md) - [Accessible Space Travel Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-elevator-concept.md) - [Innovative Electric Trams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electric-tram.md) - [Autonomous Timber Transportation Shuttles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/timber-shuttle.md) - [Multifunctional Transport Buses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bubblic-public.md) - [Interchangeable Autonomous Vehicles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/driverless-transportation-system.md)
