Digestive Car
A vehicle equipped with four stomachs, that could be fed with grass to fuel the car
The world will change dramatically when industrial design is used to create bodily organs. Taking the cow’s digestive system as inspiration, an augmented bio printed organ is used to produce methane to power a vehicle.
The “Digestive Car” explores a new aesthetic of bio-products, to open discussion about the issues surrounding global warming. This speculative, self-sufficient fuel source will provide a new energy future and a cleaner environment while you feed this living vehicle with grass. The Digestive Car project, inspired by a cow’s digestive system, imagines that 3D-printed biological materials will one day be used for industrial design. It proposes a vehicle equipped with four stomachs that could be fed with grass; the methane created from the digestion process would fuel the car.
