2016 Anki RS & RSR by Harald Belker
(from Harald Belker Press Release) ANKI RS
Named one of the Top 50 Most Innovative Companies by Fast Company, Anki is dedicated to bringing consumer robotics into everyday life, building on decades of scientific research to make artificial intelligence accessible to everyone.
After years of designing very unique Racecars that were not bigger than 1/43 scale but had extreme proportions, we were wondering what a real size Anki Racecar would look like. The scaled down Racecars were designed to evoke the same reaction that people experience when they see full size Sports and Race cars. Reflecting the same parameters of fun, functionality and aggressive form language.
Clear on the strategy, ANKI designer Harald Belker set out to design the ANKI-RS. (RS in this case stands for Race Simulator).
The design reflects the complete understanding of cutting edge technology and merges aerodynamic body shapes and artistic sculpting, to create a design that reflects everything that is new in the world of automotive design. With complete creative freedom given, the design reflects many of the trademarks that make our smaller versions so unique.
ANKI-RSR
The RSR is conceptualized for ultimate performance. Together with the now enclosed cab and more aggressive spoilers and wings, and therefore much improved aerodynamic profile the car is destined to be ultra competitive in the digital racing world. The RSR can temporarily produces up to 1227 hp, which should be enough to outperform any competition within the world of racing games.
