Road Cones can be a pain sometimes, for the driver a safety hazard and for the guy who has to place them on the road, a back breaking job. Not many must have thought of redesigning this thang, but innovation is really called for. Interim let’s look at the Air Cone Concept; it’s this flattened balloon strip that you lay on the road. Inflating it causes Air Cones to pop up, but care has been taken to ensure a sturdy design. Only hope that crazy kids with pins in hand don’t go popping it just for fun.

does this allow for creating angles in direction? if its like my tape measure, creating those angles can be difficult. this idea, though, has potential.
“Too Many Corns” about sums it up.
Great idea but the old coins were made that way to stop te car. If it are baloons like these. A car would just run over it.
Since when has cone and corn been interchangeable words? (1) The concept is a concept is a concept and is not a design. (2) And it’s not even a great concept (3)
I miss the old days when Mac Funamizu and the likes were the ones featured.
I love how u guys never recognize a nice idea, I guess u r Starck, Lovegrove etc. u should be design gods…
P.S. Nice idea btw
Good ideas are a-plenty.
Well developed ideas are a-plenty.
Good and well developed ideas are rare.
lovegrove is rubbish
I’m sorry but is that a GIANT METAL FAN in the middle of the freeway?
the real problem is air doesn;t make noise, and don;t bring back mac
Beautiful idea. I love it. I wonder, however, what happens to the cone when a car runs over it incidentally or on purpose. Does the cone burst, or is deflated (then re-inflated). How vandalism resistant is it? There will be plenty of kids, who’d have no bigger pleasure but to make wholes in each of the cones. As a concept, so far, I still like it. Well done!
the car runs over it, birsts it and the track gets wrapped over the wheele. the car crashes and it takes hours to remove the 2 miles of mangled up track from the wheels. cones work much better than this.
Great design! Could you send my some more details about the product? And tell me the price and where i can buy it? Thanks very much.
its a great idea, but still need more research.
– How do you fix it on the asphalt, what if there is strong wind.road cones can be used in dirt or on road.
– That roller thing is a hazard on the road.
– Road cones are easy to replace,cheaper to produce,reusable,no maintainance. etc.
– When it comes to placing the road cones,I think it is common sense to anyone on when and how to place it.
I am more interested in those items flashing under water and under the barrels at the bottom of the page. Do you have more information on them.
I nearly fell asleep behind the wheel the other day but i had my anti sleep alarm on and it sounded so i pulled over and had a break. They are not that expensive and i got mine from NO NAP

I’m still unclear on how these cones are inflated. By mouth? Help!
I’m still unclear on how these cones are inflated. By mouth? Help! And if its windy enough would the cones tip over in a group, the whole or part of the strip laying on its side?
