Sinjefe that is an interesting shelter and the company is just down the road I see. The sink and electrical are nice additions as well as the trailer aspect.

The owner of the company in another video mentioned the emergency shelter use, it seems DARPA is forwarding emergency shelter development to some degree. That makes sense when you see the aftermath of some of the recent disasters we have experienced here let alone in other parts of the world.

There is a broad spectrum of portability, man pack-able systems, air transport and drop-able, connex types, and mobile types. Having systems like electrical, generators, batteries/ inverters or DC systems, solar, water/plumbing, heating, cooking, communication, etc... bring added function. I am not seeing many designs out there that focus on the passive energies which would reduce weights the energy foot print.

We will probably see some interesting developments coming out of these concepts.
