Solar Powered Sea Limousine to ferry passengers to 'The World'




Designed and developed by Dennis Ingemansson, the Dubai Sea Limousine is an idea based on the “The World”- a man-made archipelago of 300 islands constructed in the shape of a world map and located 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) off the coast of Dubai. The society comprises of a series of artificial islands which are currently under construction and this ambitious new taxi service seeks to become the sort of marine transportation between artificial islands. The discrete sea limousine draws on luxury yacht design and comes powered with solar cells integrated in the windows skin and moves forward with the help of a hovercraft. The vehicle is controlled by a satellite navigation system and needs no human pilot which makes this whole concept truly futuristic.
