Velib-inspired YoYo single seat transportation

By Naresh KumarChauhan /Jun 1 2010

Much like the “Velib,” a public bicycle rental program in Paris, France, the “Yo-Yo” by designer James Yarger is a single seat transportation device for inner city commutation. Molding its rental and recharging system on the Paris-based bicycle, the new public transportation system makes use of “Google Earth” based program that the users can download on their cellphone or mobile entertainment device to track and reserve the transportation device. In addition, you may either use the YoYo individually or connect a number of devices together according to your transportation needs.
