Yo Ryde

You are measured; height, mass, leg, thigh length, arm length and elbow position. This is accomplished by recording a video of the future rider holding an object of known length and doing a special, bike ordering dance. A discount is provided if the dancer gives permission for the video to be used for marketing purposes.

The video is proceeded and the rider measurement data is extrapolated.

A survey concerning previous bikes is provided and completed.

Styles and sizes and paint options are also noted.

The terrain around where you live is discussed and measured: roads, the age of the roads, the climate and any plans to move.

Discussion about future rides. The prefect bike is proposed and any element on the design is flexible. On acceptance of the terms and details, the bike is made as close to the rider as possible.

A bike is made for the one and single person with their name the down tube and a bust of their 3d scanned face is fixed to the head tube. The serial number is their full name, shoe size and favourite tune, joke or lucky number.

Ship Painter 1.0

There is a database, of all ships, ever. Some user friendly software is connected to it. The user chooses a ship and a sea on a date. Extrapolating from climate models and viewpoints. The software can place the ship heroically in the scene. Dimensions and styles are chosen. A robot arm is then instructed to paint the scene in oil, or if budget constraints are present, the picture can be printed in the variety of methods available. A frame is 3d printed in an inert metal or plastic of some sort, maybe with a celluloid component. A brass didactic panel is included in the frame.
