jebus Christ this is a bat**** insane/stoopid idear.
Let's deconstruct this latest intelligentsia sponsored grab for tax payer research dollars:
1. Roads must be constructed from very dense materials, and provide traction.
2. it's hard to have a dense, resilient surface that is rough, yet (lmfao) make it opaque.
3. Media picks up on latest "invention" tries to stir hope amongst the subject population.
4. Tech fag bois (Von Ted, Eggi, Data, Goshin) pick up the good vibes, spread the good news, disseminate the bs.
5. Research dollars from the tax payer go to another hair brained scheme of the intelligentsia.
6. Billions are spent, invention is forgotten "We didn't know tires had dirt on them and scoured the surface" etc.
How does idears like this, fusionary, and the lolerlaserplane become acceptable to so many dorks?

this entire post could almost work with fiber optics 200 years ago... with proper translations of course.

I agree that in 200 years from now we can make this work.

So when I crash in the snow and my car shatters a nice piece of road glass so I get impaled and the water from melting snow drips down into the heating elements so while I'm impaled and bleeding to death I can get electrocuted as well
SOUNDS GREAT

https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/solar-roadways#home
prototype is installed in their parking lot, melted ice and snow in idaho over the winter, stuff and such. They are doing a cost analysis by mid July. looking for crowd funding to speed up their r&d/manufacturing to build out more stuff
their next task is to put down a road in the mainstreet of their town
they are also looking at additional funding from the highway government peoples in mid July.
donate if you believe in the future!
or whatever!
recap!
solar panels that you drive on (better traction than the road right now actually), 3 times power generation than what we currently use nation wide, smart streets that can flash stuff on the glass surface to let drivers know of accidents, potential drunk drivers, something in the road including people...and built in cables for everything, power, internet, tv, phone, etc...no more power poles and power lines, no more power going out during a bad storm, ice and snow melt off the roads so no more plows and salt and stuff.

Just think, if the wasteful corrupt government wasn't in charge of the roads we probably would have had all kinds of these cool road innovations a long time ago.

Wait, Mitch thinks Dubai is stupid?

It would be more feasable to retrofit existing structures with it.

retrofit existing roads with a glass panel, an information panel, and a conduit panel?
I've always felt that this would work best as a "time to repair the roads or asphalt them!" scheme, where instead of maintaining our bs, we go in and change it out with this as needed
course that would create significant (10 years?) lag time for grid connectivity and stuff
maybe do a few major roads in each city around the nation for one large grid that can connect right away, then expand out as roads come up for repairs

God damnit. I was really hopeful about this project, and then it goes and turns up on indiegogo.

y rly, I mean why not use 95% of your available energy to do away with wheels and bearings. Flying cars is an idea almost as stupid as using a laser instead of a bomb to take out a missile
:lmfao:
Best to keep it in the dark Goshin, frauds and scams don't do well under the light of exposure.
The glass on my phone is partially obscured, I must be pressing too hard. But hey I'm sure they'll come up with something much harder than glass - yet still having a friction surface which somehow wont get slippery due to being rubbed by other rough surfaces. Maybe like roughened up diamonds or something. Roughened, yet still near transparent.
Yea solar panels would do much better embedded in a roadfuknway, than say ... sitting on a roof.
Fukn insane ****, sad part of it - Goshin isn't trolling, he believes.

I guess you have to be able to read between the lines a little, appreciate figures of speech, maybe even pick up on the sarcasm.
Try reading something other than tech manuals. gl hf
