The cable car on water
The cable car industry is considered very innovative, and not without reason. With the hydro cable car, we are introducing the invention of a true visionary.
The bouncing cable car software
Nothing less than a simulation software for complex urban cable cars has been developed by two German IT students. The innovative concept is called “CableHopper.” A concept with a great future?

Is hovering the new skiing?
In many winter sports destinations, skiing could soon become a thing of the past. Günther Aloys has established an institution with his WORKSHOP ISCHGL to develop alternative concepts to classic ski tourism. The latest outcome of their work in this innovation hub is Slope Gliding. Instead of skiing downhill, you float downwards with a small balloon.
Pollux: Digital alpine twin
