Fairplay...

a new football playing technique :-)

Here In germany (especially here in munich) the football delirium overlabs at the moment because of the WM 2006. Unfortunatly I couldīnt resist to think about this theme and so this picture happen. Here is the idea:

Itīs a concept for a Remote Controlable Ball. It works with 3 "dynamic unbalance" modules (red). Every single module is driven by a single electro engine. These are speed controlable. (yellow cable) The core of this hole system is the "gyro stabilizer" sensor. (the transclucent cylinder in the middle) With the help of a metal sphere in the middle of this element and a lot of sensors on the outside (the black dots) this module can realize within slit seconds how the ball is positioned at the moment. With this information, the electronic is able to control the influence of every single unbalance unit of the ball, so that it can be controlled by the remote control. This could be really really interesting games I think... ;-)

Tools used: 3D Studio Max; Rhino; Mental Ray; Photoshop

I don't know what's more genius, the picture or fact that the ball could actualy work! - maybe I'm just weird but I really like the way the controls are blurred out, it's just something no-one else would think of!
