Deus Ex Machina concept - combo of exoskeleton and bike


This futuristically looking concept bike christened Deus Ex Machina was invented by Jake Loniak who is a student at Art Center Pasadena. Having a fabulous design, this concept bike looks like a cyborg from the science fiction. This super bike is going to be powered by ultra capacitors with nano phoshpate batteries being similar to those used in hybrid cars. 

Its main controller seems to be 36 pneumatic muscles along with two linear actuators mounted in its spine while having 7 artificial vertebrae. The Deus Ex Machina concept bike has an easy to use helmet which is pneumatically attached. This state of the art super bike is reported to be capable of reaching its top speed of seventy five miles per hour. 

Still, it is not quite clear how good a bike rider is protected when used this bike. Being a combination of exoskeleton and bike, it looks fascinating. This miraculous super bike is believed to be capable of accelerating from 0 to 60 miles per hour in just 3 seconds while its recharge time would be a 15 minutes period with 1 hour cycle time. 

This Yamaha branded motorcycle is a great example of how future bikes may look like. This technical wonder is also an environmentally friendly bike, Deus Ex Machina is translated as God out of machine. Besides, The Deus Ex Machina includes an in wheel engine with good torque capacity but we are unlikely to see this concept bike in the not too distant future as this is now just a concept.
