Le véhicule de demain | Gabriel Alberola | TEDxHECMontréal


hi today i will talk to you
and seen
of tomorrow the southern vehicle gets
often when we think about the vehicles of the
future
there is a good chance that this is
kind of image there that goes through the
head
you noticed that I went
draw his images in works of
science fiction especially because the
popular culture
Well, it’s a reflection of who we are in
as a society you also have
surely noticed that these slums
car variants why because
the car is firmly implanted in
our collective consciousness
in fact in just 100 years the car
has become de facto the means of
personal transport with the tone used
in an urban environment beyond his side
practice the car has also become
a kind of symbols of success
as one more element towards
reaching the mythical American dream
for others it’s even an extension
of his personality which makes that
it’s really hard to get
to leave
to answer the adoption
exponential of this means of transport
we had to adapt our cities to
As a result, we began to see
cities appear without a sidewalk like
if our main means of locomotion
our legs had become obsolete
we have seen the democratization of concrete
asphalt as main materials
who come so bad if our decor
urban, forgetting that concrete from
cold asphalt siguiri then we saw
appear another problem over the
time we all know about congestion
in the united states in north america
it is estimated that in October a motorist
per year will spend $ 800 on average
to be motionless in the traffic one
talk about gasoline spending we talk
of time loss as talking
of immobility cars spend 95 %
of their time to be motionless to be
parked what does that do
Well that’s what we reserve in the
major cities of the world up to 50%
the total area for cars
we talk about street the highway but of
parking also we saw a
urbanism at the service of the car
place of advanced urbanism in the service of
of the human being who live in the
cities
you imagine that all these cars
there it creates another problem
sacred pollution cars
emit co2 in grace which including
responsible for smog and
global warming
all scientists agree for
to say that we are almost at the point of
no return not part of the change
Climate since today is it
is time to act the cars are
responsible for a fifth of all
the greenhouse gases you can
you imagine that breathe this art their
thoughts not necessarily good for the
health
in fact in the most cities
polluted the world when he smig
we see that it’s worse than the effect
smig is worse than cigarette in
does then not only has the problem
of pollution but the car does it
also that have done more exercises
we move more to north america
in pants that one person out of two makes
not enough basic exercise
that is to say market make the famous
10 miles a day
you will excuse me for portraying a
a little murky portrait of the situation
but fortunately face problems
like that the human being is always
good to tap into his ingenuity
to find solutions
then more and more alone on the pen
goes through technology in the field
of urban mobility have enough
precisely to a revolution in the
transport domain
it’s the electric car the car
electric is powered by a
battery by electricity then
she has autonomy more and more
impressive that makes one can
really replace his car
traditional by this one it’s not
just an electric revolution
it’s also the smart car
who’s coming next is a car that’s
equipped with hyper-powerful computers that
make sure that the car baths and
since she says herself
I could even be crushed in
my living room released my phone how
of a car
later m wait in front of my door of
my house I propose we look at a
little bit the issues that I have
mentioned earlier to see how the
electric car
how does the smart car go there
answer ben at the level of urbanism
if not bad the same thing a car
electric by the same footprint
than a traditional car then
asks for infrastructure that is
so short eur then to write the
same stress and infrastructure that
expensive in terms of pollution
the environment
Well, there’s a good news
electric cars c zero emissions
except that electricity needs
that it comes from somewhere then the
problem is that in the countries
industrialized most countries
industrialized
there are a lot of networks
energy that actually rolls over
to sacred fossil fuels
you have it become gas effect
Greenhouse fact it is still surprising
problems they have but pink tailor
da is beautiful not to think of it is a
other problem
finally not side finally at the level
of health ben that’s status quo actually
it was even worse because instead
to have to walk to fetch
my car ben it is she who comes to
my meeting
the electric car the car
smart it’s not the vehicle that
will solve our mobility problems
urban makes it a vehicle that old
200-year-old 200-year- old who wants to settle
our urban mobility problem
it’s the bike the bike is the
vehicles that the best performance
energetic by spending the same
energy that I take to walk I
can go 5 times faster I can
move five times further in the middle
urban one overtaking out of two is to
less than 10 kg but to give you a
a 10 km bike ride that pretty much a
half an hour in certain that when he of
traffic in fact I’m even more
quickly a bike that a car that
are going to be taken in traffic so for
these trips the time is the bike
which is considered to them for the
most trips to each other
safe investments from them the one of more
10 km
the bike can still be of a
utility because in fact they might
fit into an intermodality of
means of transport that means that I
could take my bike
if I live for example on the south shore
I can go to a station
of train take the train in at
downtown far bixi then go to my
work then just to be clear here
the problem is not the car in
as such the car after a
of utility then that I deny it the
problem is that we do not put in
question our choice of vehicles
automatic tells us we’ll take the
car is sure that sometimes times
the checkbooks except that I’m not going
buy me a shelf at home to
every day if we look we take the
bike then we analyze again the
problems that I voted on earlier
it’s almost absurd how
bike solves all our problems
it’s a bit like a future infopub
station and the produce is like everything and
take hope so in the universe the
know what larnack in there well here we
did not actually I think an image
worth a thousand words
here we have 200 cars on the road here
we have 200 bikes the weight that bikes
do on the infrastructure as well
greatly reduced we have
carrying the infrastructure we do not have
as much need to maintain them as with
cars that are heavy
at the level of ecological pollution
Well, I think it’s pretty obvious
the bikes do not emit co2 that
also costs a lot less in
bike is much less polluting
is not battery materials that
rare metals extraction of
rare metals which is very polluting in
fact
then finally well at the level of the
health
not only do I feel good when
I come to work but make a half
bike hour a day I burn 304 and
I kill two birds with one stone
not that I teach you much about
you exposing yourself the benefits of the
bike but yet our cities
do not look like we do not have a mass of
cyclists who are walking in the city
to go to work
how come when it’s done
that knowing all the benefits every
perverse effects of the car
but we do not change our habits ben there
are there researchers who are doing
a question
then we asked
city ​​dwellers said why not bike
more often then we actually go
account that all your answers evoked
bring back to a point
it is the deficient infrastructures
good
we mention particular bank do the
bike is dangerous we mention jazz
it’s too far to go by bike to my
work I can pass the bike to do
cycling in winter is too dangerous
except that in fact it is any test that
the car can live too
if I wanted on the highway then that
in my trip change in tgv which
was in my left voice
it’s still dangerous
but it’s a bike thing knows
a truck that actually arrives it’s
dangerous
in winter it’s dangerous to ride a bike
knows ice in car too
and then we do it we clear the snow
streets we developed
infrastructure to really improve
driving a car
why can not we do it for the
bike the good news is that
infrastructure changes bah that’s
not so complicated did it here at
Quebec have invested millions of
dollars to make news
highways will make new leads
cycle it costs a fraction of that
shot there then the other good news
it is that, finally, that it works
develop infrastructure for
bikes as well as that encourages the
cycling because there are others
property they did that this is a
highway cyclists in copenhagen
week
cyclists from point a to point b of
the fastest way possible because
in copenhagen we thought
which pollute the least
are better for our health
citizens we will arrange for the
infrastructures are the best
for them for cars but at
otherwise we will make that more
complicated there may be some who
lives in plateau who recognize themselves
a little bit here
flexion knows what to do
bike infrastructure finally
it’s not that complicated
and in addition it works but maybe
that it’s not a problem
infrastructure but it’s more of a
culture problem that we have
in north america facing bikes on
grew up with the car
the car is sexy not only it’s
the car makes us sexy
exactly if if I take a suit
white who accost me on an aston
martin ben I will be able to seduce
full of femme fatales
we have the same silhouette would like
just the chariot monday over time the
car he wants him with new
deserts really stylish gadgets
that make us vibrate my parents have
bought a car is not long
then good what you need to know is my
parents are retired who have
been really reasonable all their
life do the 110 years web and we take
a big tank that includes all
options it’s all options they
do not know what they took then I
the leads I choke she was shot
I felt like a kid in there
I did the car but recognize
I had the key in my pocket
frequency of the bars automatically there
there is a button to start the engine there is
touch screens are like more
colorful that my TV in wedding at
london and I can go but the ice
with a voice command
it’s really one if we agree
but it’s still really covers
six- sided side of the bike bath
it’s not cool to bike it’s not
sexy
the character of steve bauer defeats
in this movie, it’s been 40 years
who is virgin
if we look at the evolution of cycling in
the creations of the last 100 years
well we realize that for 50 years
the bike has not really changed in fact
on the one hand it shows a little bit of
solidity of this designer but of another
piece to contribute a little to the picture
outdated bike then what is
paradoxical is that even companies
that offer products for cyclists
to improve the life of cyclists ben
we tax the products that come out all
right of the 90s me as
urban cyclist I did not have a goal of
put something that looks like a black metal
him on my bike personally pity
if he comes me merlet start again he
we cheap
well I’m going motorists who are coming
at destination he does not remove his headlights
before why cyclists or even
do it why the cycle and that’s
still treated as citizens of
second class
considering all the biases makes the
bike bah that’s where 3 is associated
and then I wanted to make the
difference
we thought why the bike could
not know a revolution
technology
just like the car and that’s why
we write this despite the brackish water
and water that connects to ride fun
it’s installed on the handlebars of
any bike that turns the
bike by smart bike by offering in
full functions advanced to cyclists
so it’s a gps to navigate the
cyclists in town it’s a light
which lights up at night since it is
automatically the end of my journey
five weapon systems that will protect
my bike against theft one of the most
great plagues that displays all the
cyclists then it’s also like a fact
says a fitness tracker that says it’s going
track all my data
cyclist the calories that I burn the
distance I’m doing the middle class
ecce terra I can even put myself
goals then the circle will show my
progress towards these goals the
unlike the products I have
showed a little earlier this material
it stays on the bike it’s part
integral of the bike tied with
the anti-theft system
that’s what makes me
not even need to press a button
mdd products detects
automatically value but the threat he
does black activate the weapons system if
I’m going away short I do not even need
to think about it as a cyclist
you also noticed that
the interface is composed only in
the bright circle but that’s because
that in an urban environment that we bike
Well, have your eyes on the road
have to focus on the traffic one can
not afford to have a species
computers with street names of
complex numbers it’s simply
dangerous then beyond that it’s
also that we wanted to keep a species
of minimalism that is related to bicycles
pedal purity species and then to
Beyond that, it’s also that having a
circle that is changing that change from
color on a didon ben that’s when
not so bad cool
when to create this match where I can not
to say that we had the ambition to change
urban mobility operate a
change of culture it takes time
it does not just happen with a quad
technology
on the other hand if it can give credibility to the
bike to someone who would see
its little bright halo lights up and
it’s already won from
sabin everything can happen
maybe even that in one of his
next movies instead of being at
flying a martin aston
magic band he will be cycling thanks side
