The implication for this technology are amazing. The units are compact. They can be built with a variation of materials, meaning remote villages or developing nations can use local resources to construct and implement their own windbelts.

In Xela Guatemala Humdinger is currently performing R&D on larger scale windbelts. The perfmance of the aerostatic flutter at this scale is still under investigation. But have faith, our MIT man Shawn Frayne and his partner Jordan Mcrae are putting their educations to hard work.
