Man sMartunit is a city connecting last mile concept. it´s an autonomous bussystem and makes an efficient door to door connection without switching between different public

transportations and offers a great travel experience with the comfortable feeling of a lounge combined with the latest technology for people who travel in groups, single and even

handicapped passengers like with a wheelchair for example. on certain sectors on the highway, the units will connect and can be used to switch to get efficiently to your destinati-on, but also it opens the noble interior. all together this is an answer to an efficient and com-

fortable future fo longdistance traffic 2031.

KtM eXp - a vision of extreme motorsports of the future. virtual and augmented realityallow immersion into another world. But what if this other world - this videogameworld would be brought into the real world? inspired by the latest technological developments, KtM eXp shows a preview for the endless possibilities that are opening up. the Concept-

triangle is the basis of our projects and shows how these play together and become one. it consists of the bikes, the gear and the game, and together they form a new KtM extreme

airports are huge architectural buildings, overloaded with information, travellers, luggage, services and a lot more. no wonder that poeple struggle very often. My goal is to install a

handful of smart service points around the airport to deliver information filtered and perso-nalized to the user. every service point is marked with a different colorcode, which makes

it easy to orientate and easy usable also for meeting points for airport service or friends.
