Tiger Stone - Brick Road Laying Machine

www.tips-fb.com
Road paving is one of those physically tasking work in which not much could be automated. Or is it? For brick laying in those brick roads though, a Dutch industrial company named Vanku introduced a machine which could save time and transform the back breaking task into one of relative ease.


In comes Tiger Stone, a road-wide brick laying machine that looked nothing like a tiger and more like a film laminating machine. A road as wide as 6 meters could have 400 m2 of the road completed within a day as opposed to the 75 - 100 m2 completed, assuming that the same amount of people are working on the task, namely 2 operators.

Uni-signal - Traffic Light for Color Blind

www.tips-fb.com
If you think that there would not be any new designs that will surprise you the way i-whatever did, think again. Especially when you were rushing the red light. Surfing across the web in a lazy evening brought to my attention the design of Uni-signal, a traffic light with a slight variation from the norm.
