Ideas ranging from an eight person pedal powered bus, which is already generating revenue for its owners, through useful consumer products to a “Continuous Energy Supply” can be seen at this year’s British Invention Show at Alexandra Palace, which is on until Saturday October 18th.
The eight person powered “Pedibus” is described by its proprietors as “Social Cycling” and allows up eight people to face each other while they supply motive power, while the inventor of the Continuous Energy Supply invites people to either assess his machine in Iran or assess another machine that he is prepare to construct here, which he says will take him two weeks to build if somebody is prepared buy him another set of parts. At the same time, a large Malaysian contingent is presenting a number of serious technologies, mostly in the fields of chemical engineering and biotechnology, some of which seem to be well ahead of related research programs in the UK. There is also a good selection of consumer product inventions, mostly from England, as well as significant representations by Wales, Croatia, and a large contingent from Iran, presenting ideas ranging from the naïve to a home produced industrial vibration monitoring and control system developed for and used in that country’s oil and gas installations.
