    Concept

Zul is focused on rescuing roundabouts
in disuse in a sustainable way with the
in order to provide safe spaces for the community to carry out other
sports such as outdoor activities,
recreational sports, running and others.
Thanks to the surface and shape of the
This object allows it to be versatile on different types of soil. For this, there are three types of cells in the form of
triangle that make up this family.
Based on the type of sporting activity
that this triangle is made will vary in
its size. For the light track we find triangles of the same
dimension, since it does not suppose a
change of position on its axis. For another
side, for our climbing wall,
These triangles generate an adaptation so that the transfer of the soil
towards these pillars requires that they be
smaller, in order to generate
grip in hand. For these connections we find adapters
capable of generating angles of 90 and 120
degrees

Innovation
Reuse of human weight (product of gravity) in recreational or sports activities to produce energy as well as reuse unused urban spaces. This can be applied in other places with similar characteristics.

Detail
These triangles are composed of different types of materials. First of all, what covers and receives all the impact is made up of reused rubber and a thick plastic sheet.
Regarding the electronics that make up this product, piezoelectrics, capacitors, resistors, sensors, batteries, LEDs are present.

Specification
There are three types of triangle-shaped cells that make up this family.

Based on the type of sporting activity carried out, this triangle will vary in size.

For the light track we find triangles of the same dimension, since it does not imply a change of position on its axis. On the other hand, for our climbing wall, these triangles generate an adaptation, so the transfer of the ground towards these pillars requires them to be smaller, in order to generate grip in the hand. For these connections we find adapters capable of generating 90 and 120 degree angles
