NeoDyne, Inc.,
manufacturer of highly efficient and powerful electric motors,
came to Georgia Tech with an idea for a new product, the NeoBike
bicycle conversion kit. NeoDyne hired the Industrial Design department
of the College of Architecture and a group of researchers from
the school of Mechanical Engineering to design and prototype an
add-on kit to convert a bicycle into a motorized vehicle using
a NeoDyne electric motor. In order to visualize the NeoBike kit
and to generate funding for the product's manufacture, IMTC was
contracted to produce a five minute animation showing how the product
might look and operate. Concept sketches produced by members of
the Industrial Design team and engineering drawings from NeoDyne
were used to create 3-D computer models of the NeoBike kit for
use in the animation.
