About Bio Shift Multifunksjonelt kjøretøy

Bio Shift er et modulært kjøretøykonsept designet for reise på land, i luften og på vann. På bakken beveger Bio Shift seg som en elektrisk bil drevet av en effektiv elektrisk motor. Kabinens drivhus er avtakbart og kan omdannes til en drone med fire vinger eller til en surfekapsel med to vinger. Vingene åpner seg og rotorene starter, noe som muliggjør vertikal start og landing. Den modulære strukturen er inspirert av bakteriofagens livssyklus og av modulene brukt i månemisjoner. Målet er å tilby en trygg og fleksibel utforskningsopplevelse.

Behind the Design

Press Kit

Credits, team members and technical details provided by the designer.

Unique Properties: This project presents a vehicle concept that combines the flexibility of modular design, and the ability to fly and to surf on water, totally offer a transport system that is beyond the normal means of transport. It has a removable greenhouse that turns into a drone and surfing pod with four 4 and 2 wing. This innovation is motivated by the need to explore while having a critical safety measure whereby the user can fly away from harm and
provide unparalleled freedom of exploration.
Dimensions & Packaging: This concept vehicle is designed based on modularity, energy efficiency, and artificial intelligence to improve the safety of users and the flexibility of operation to meet the requirements of modern transportation.

Production Technology: This vehicle concept was developed through a systematic design process emphasizing modularity and multifunctionality. We analyzed current technologies, including modular vehicle architectures and drones, to create interchangeable components. Inspired by the bacteriophage lifecycle as a main source, the design allows seamless transitions between transport modes. The techniques were employed enabling the creation of a transport system that adapts to users' evolving safety and performance needs.
Design Challenge: The hardest part of this design was overcoming the challenge of integrating multiple functionalities into a single vehicle while ensuring efficiency. The modular design required research on how parts can be divided while maintaining an appealing appearance. To address this challenge, it was necessary to balance familiarity and novelty in overall design language. Although there were concerns about public acceptance, they can be alleviated by highlighting the advantages this vehicle can offer.
Research: This design research is the practical use of theoretical concepts. It seeks to investigate and design new vehicle architectures in terms of modularity and flexibility based on biological systems such as the bacteriophage and aerospace systems such as the lunar lander and orbiter. This includes reviewing prior research on modular systems in biology and aerospace engineering, in order to investigate the modularity concept in car design, that is, how components can be best divided and combined.
Inspiration: A blend of the bacteriophage involves three different stages: attachment, separation, and reattachment. The lunar mission has specialized modules that work in parallel but are part of a single system. Both of these inspirations help provide the vehicle with the ability to explore and be as safe as possible, all while providing a design that allows users to transcend the limitations of Earth and experience the true essence of freedom in travel.
Project Duration: The project started on June 1, 2024, in Tehran and finished on September 30, 2024, also in Tehran.
Operation Flow: The vehicle operates using three primary modes: ground mode, aerial mode, and surfing. On the ground, it works like any other electric vehicle, using an efficient electric motor to drive the car. When the user wants to switch to flying or surfing mode, the greenhouse comes off. The wings are opened, the rotors are started, and make the vertical take-off and landing possible.
