Biography:
I’m a Junior Transportation Designer from Argentina, recently graduated from the IED Torino.
Since I can remember, I’ve always been guided by my curiosity.
This brought me one step further, exploring my creativity over the limits.
I grew up and lived in different countries, and because of that I developed my adaptability.
I maintain an exponential level of learning, fed by passion and innovation. I squeeze the most of my skills because the limits are only those that we impose to ourself.
Description:
The design of the Faraday Future Singularity was developed around the concept of “non-stop racing” in order to make it an actual continuous 24-hour race. To accomplish this, innovative solutions throughout the design of the vehicle and out of the box thinking was necessary. The main characteristics are:
Exterior:
- Wireless Radiowaves powered engines
- 3D printing system used to regenerate the surface of the wheels
- Relay of the pilot system
- Full active aerodynamics controlled by the fractal patterned wings of the car
Interior:
- Biomimetic Internal Structure for shock-Absorption
- Personalized ergonomics with modular seat
- Completely transparent cockpit for full Visibility
- Quantum trapping steering wheel, simplifying the interaction. As the brand describes their style of design, the car has the characteristic similar to a UFO which make it looks as if it was from another planet.
These characteristics create a matchless ultra-lightweight machine that will change all the standards of the competition.
The name Singularity makes reference to the astrophysics definition of the concept, being an anomaly that exists within a system, while escaping its rules.
