Transportation Futuristics : A Presentation of the Harmer E. Davis Transportation Library

Transportation Futuristics : A Presentation of the Harmer E. Davis Transportation Library

quite a neat website looking at some historical transportation systems including a section on PRT. Yes the idea of PRT has been around for some time. One of the main problems with early designs is the complexity of the vision combined with the low power of the computing hardware + sensor technology.

Love the aerodynamics what's that image. Note half the images are not of PRT systems them selves, but still fun.
