Rapid mode
In this mode, the vehicle will be travelling at great speeds back to headquarters to load up a supply unit. With its head rotated down, it centres the gravity on the vehicle, allowing it to be more safe, efficient and agile. Having large wheels and unique all terrain suspension this mode allows the vehicle the ability to travel anywhere. In addition, the function and mentality of the vehicle in rapid mode is also shown through its aesthetics. It is seen to give the feeling of speed and all terrain.
Transport mode
In this mode, the vehicle will be travelling into the disaster affected area carrying much needed supplies. Travelling in groups, these vehicles will efficiently journey through hazardous and rough terrain. Although in this mode, the vehicle may not be able to travel as fast as its other mode due to the weight, it is still able to utilize its all terrain capabilities and hence quickly arrive at its destination. Having the headpiece rotated up, its aesthetics are totally changed from its other mode. The vehicle looks more authoritative, grounded and safe, giving the impression that it is on a mission.
Temporary housing
Having the ability to transform the supply unit into a temporary housing is another efficient way to aid people in need. With a simple rotation of the side panels, the unit is able to expand into a shelter either for use in medical procedures, food and water distribution points or a shelter for the public. The housing also has its own electricity and clean water generators. In addition, when the unit is expanded, the supplies are already inside the shelter and are therefore instantly ready for distribution to the needy.
In my next article, i shall talk about the suspension, the loading and unloading of supplies and how the driver enters and exits the vehicle.
Thanks!
