Ukuvakasha kwesitudiyo somklamo oyimfihlo we-Genesis, lapho abenzi bemodeli yobumba besikole esidala kanye nabathakathi bedijithali besikole esisha behlangana ukuze bakhe imoto yesikhathi esizayo.
Njengoba kufakazelwa yiziboshwa ezansi kwamaphijama e-Zoom, ukuthatha izwe elingokoqobo ngedijithali sekuzophela.Kusukela ku-CGI Marvels kanye nabaculi be-NFT kuya ku-othomathikhi kanye nezimoto ezizishayelayo, ezindala, izindlela zezandla - nalabo omakadebona abafunga ngabo - bahlatshwa lapho, ngokuvamile i-chorus ethi "well, baby boomers."
Kunjalo nasemkhakheni wokukhiqiza izimoto, njengoba noma yisiphi isisebenzi sezimoto esidilizwe irobhothi sizokufakazela lokho.E-Genesis Design eNyakatho Melika, i-Road & Track kwaba ukushicilelwa kokuqala ukuthola ukufinyelela kuleli gumbi elingaphakathi eliyimfihlo lase-Irvine, eCalifornia.UHans Lapine, ongumqondisi walesi sikhungo, uthe ilungu labezindaba like lafika egcekeni lalesi studio ngaphambi kokuba libanjwe.ULapine ungowokudabuka eDetroit, owake waba ngumkhiqizi wePorsche (izingane zakhe zifaka i-956 ne-959), futhi ube ngummodeli omkhulu we-Audi neVolkswagen e-United States iminyaka engu-20.Uzozenzela yena ngo-2021, yingakho silapha: buka ukumodela okuphelele kobumba odokotela abangochwepheshe.Ngonjiniyela ongumbono we-General Motors u-Harley J. Earl, izimoto ezicabangayo, izinguquko zaminyaka yonke, iphiko elingemuva, i-Corvette, nomsebenzi "wokwakhiwa kwezimoto", lolu uhlobo losizo olusisizile ukuthi sizale izimoto.Art.Izinhlobo zobumba bezilokhu ziyisisekelo sezimoto eziningi emhlabeni.Njengezimangaliso eziningi zezimboni, lo mkhuba wakudala usongelwa ukwanda kwamathuluzi edijithali: isofthiwe nezibonisi ezinkulu, ukugaya ngekhompyutha, nokuphrinta kwe-3D.Nokho, imodeli yobumba isekhona.
Sangena uchungechunge lwezitudiyo eziphakeme, ezinezindonga ezimhlophe nezikhanyiswe kahle.Iwumthombo wemiklamo ewinayo engavamile, okuhlanganisa ama-sedans e-Genesis G70 kanye nama-G80, kanye nama-GV70 nama-GV80 SUV.Ukwamukela kwabo izihambi okuklonyeliswayo nokubalulekile kukhumbuza abantu ngesikhathi sokuhluleka kwe-Audi, lapho uhlobo lwaseJalimane lwalusebenzisa amafomula afanayo—okwamanje, aqhutshwa umklamo, nangale kokunethezeka—ukuthengisa cishe kathathu e-US futhi lizazise.Iba yimbangi yangempela yeMercedes-Benz neBMW.
Abaklami beGenesis bahlanganisa u-Tony Chen noChris Ha, futhi ukuqalisa kwabo okuphelele kufaka phakathi ulwazi lomsebenzi kwa-Audi, Volkswagen kanye noLucid.Ngaphansi koxhaso lomhlaba wonke lomklami we-Bentley wangaphambili u-SangYup Lee, ngokulandelana kwabo bangabaphathi bobuciko be-GV80 ngaphandle nangaphakathi.Abafundi bamakolishi esikhungo sobuciko baqinisekisile ukuthi imidwebo yamahhala isagcwalisa ideski labo bonke abaklami kanye nobhasikidi wemfucuza, okuyisiqalo saso sonke isikhathi.Kodwa phakathi kwephepha nobumba olugcwele, lezi zidalwa manje sezishintsha ngokuphelele lezi zinhlobo endaweni yedijithali.UChen noHa bethule isoftware yabo ye-Autodesk.I-GV80 enosayizi ogcwele iyacwebezela kusukela kusibonisi odongeni futhi ingena endaweni yesikhohlakali esikhulu esingamafidi angu-24 ubude namafidi angu-7 ubude.Ukunikezwa kuzokwanelisa noma yimuphi umagazini noma ukuthengisa kwe-TV.Ngokuswayipha okumbalwa kwegundane, u-Chen ulungise ukukhanya okungemuva futhi wadweba futhi walungisa umugqa wezinhlamvu ze-parabolic oyisithonjana.Lezi zenzo zingase zithathe izinyanga ezimbalwa ukuqedwa.
ULapine wathi esikhathini esidlule, abaklami babesebenzisa ubumba ukuze benze imilimitha ngayinye yokuziphendukela kwemvelo.Imodeli yosayizi ogcwele ingase idinge u-$20,000 wezinto zokwakha, ezingezwakali kangako kuze kube kuneziphakamiso zezimoto ezizayo ezingu-20 eziqhudelanayo.Ubuchwepheshe bedijithali benza abaklami bakwazi ukusebenzisana futhi baqhudelane emhlabeni wonke ngaphandle kokuthi bathumele ubumba oluningi kuzo zonke izingxenye zomhlaba, futhi ngaphandle kokuthi abaphathi nabaklami benze uhambo olukhethekile lokuyobubuka.
"Singayithumela ngempela eSouth Korea," kusho uChen ngale misebenzi ye-Autodesk.Ngesikhathi se-COVID, amathuluzi asekelwe esikrinini ayi-godsend.Ithimba le-Lean Design kwaGenesis alisasokoli ngisho namamodeli esikali.ULapine uthe bamosha isikhathi nezinsiza."Uyawaqhumisa, izilinganiso azilungile."
Okulandelayo, u-Justin Horton, inhloko yokubuka ngeso lengqondo kuGenesise, wafaka ihedisethi engokoqobo ekhanda lami.Omunye upopayi, i-GV80, wagcwalisa umbono wami, manje onesibhakabhaka esiguquguqukayo kanye nesizinda samanzi.Lokhu akukho ngaphandle kwe-Xbox: IGenesis ibukeka ingokoqobo ngokwanele ukuba ithinteke, futhi onjiniyela sebevele bephendula ngokuthinta ngezinzwa zeminwe.Mhlawumbe maduze, sizothinta futhi sihogele isikhumba "sangempela" ngenkathi sithenga emhlabeni obonakalayo.
Manje njengoba sesibonile ama-giants ebhekene nokulingisa, sekuyisikhathi sokuhlangana noDavids abambalwa: UMike Farnham, umdidiyeli omkhulu weGenesis, no-Preston Moore, umdidiyeli omkhulu kanye nomfundisi e-Art Center Academy.Ngaphambi kwethu kunemodeli ehlukanisiwe ye-GV80, ingxenye yayo eveza ifomu elimangalisayo ngokumelene nengemuva elibi.Engxenyeni engaqediwe, ubumba lwe-ocher luqina kuhle kwebhotela, lushwabene ngezandla zomuntu kanye nezigxivizo zeminwe eziyinqaba.Ngokuqondene nabantu, okwangempela nokungekona okwangempela kuyamangalisa: "njengemoto" engasondela ebuhleni obuyisisekelo bomfanekiso we-Brâncuși.Izandla zami zakhangwa ubumba, futhi amajika alo anothuli acashile ayefinyeleleka ngokungapheli, njengefenisha yasesitolo esiwuchwepheshe.
Iphansi lisekela imbabala ebaziwe, uhlaka lwensimbi nokhuni ngendlela ye-Styrofoam, egaywe ibe yizimo ezisebenzisekayo futhi embozwe ngongqimba oluwugqinsi lobumba.Akunangqondo ukuqopha amamodeli obumba ngokuphelele, ikakhulukazi njengoba enesisindo samathani amaningana.Umbono oyisisekelo awuzange ushintshe kakhulu kusukela ngo-1909. Ngaleso sikhathi, u-Harley Earl oneminyaka engu-16 (indodana yomkhiqizi wezimoto) waqala ukwakha amamodeli ezimoto zesikhathi esizayo kuma-sahahorses okhuni, esebenzisa amamodeli avela ezintabeni ezisenyakatho yeLos Angeles.Ubumba phezu kombhede womfula.
Amathuluzi okumodela ngokuvamile enziwa ekhaya futhi enziwa umuntu kakhulu (wenza isicaba futhi adlulisele isudi yakhe emadodaneni akhe) abekwe ebhokisini lamathuluzi eliginqikayo eduze, elibukeka njengezinsimbi zokuhlinza zenkathi ephakathi: amaraki, amathuluzi ocingo, ukuhlela "izingulube" ", i-spline engunxande.
"Lawa mathuluzi aphenduka isandiso sakho," kusho u-Farnham.Wakhetha i-carbon fibre splines, imicu yefayibha egobile ukuze "iqinise" ihood ye-GV80, ayibhulashe ngazo zombili izandla, futhi anyakaze ngokukhululeka, okwamkhumbuza iminyaka yakhe yokuhlangenwe nakho ekubumbeni amabhodi okubhukuda.
"Isandla sakho empeleni sidala isimo ofuna ukusiveza ngezindlela ezintathu," esho, ethuthukisa ubuso ngobuchule."Awukwazi ukwenza lokhu nge-VR. Kwesinye isikhathi awukwazi ukuthwebula uthando ngedijithali."
Uthe i-carbon fiber iyithuluzi elihle lokumodela.Ilula, iqinile, igcina ijika, futhi ishiya ukuthungwa okucashile okuzwakalayo okuthandwa abaklami.
I-Clay ine-ductility engenamkhawulo, engalungiswa ngokungeza noma ukunciphisa izinto.Inqwaba yamaphalethi iqukethe amabhokisi ayo, apakishwe kusilinda esilingana nekani lethenisi.I-Genesis ithanda i-Marsclay Medium evela kumkhiqizo waseJalimane i-Staedtler, ehlinzeka nge-Who's Who kubakhiqizi bezimoto futhi manje sekuqalwa ngogesi.Imodeli idinga cishe amaphalethi amane anenani.(I-Ford isebenzisa amakhilogremu angu-200 000 alezi zinto minyaka yonke.) Ohhavini abaklanyelwe ukuchamusela amatshwele manje bangasiza ekuchamuseleni izimoto, bashise ubumba lube ngama-degree angu-140 ukuze luthambe.Akekho obonakala azi kahle ukuthi yini engaphakathi kuyo.U-Farnham wake wazama ukwenza umsebenzi wakhe ukuze avule izimfihlo zawo.Inkampani yobumba ivikela ngokucophelela ifomula yokuphathelene.
Kuyinguqulo yezimboni yobumba lwepulasitiki, kodwa empeleni aluqukethe ubumba lwamaminerali.UWilliam Harbart, umphathi we-Bath Art Institute e-United Kingdom, wasungula ipulasitiki ngo-1897, efuna indlela eguquguqukayo engeke yome emoyeni kubafundi.Ummeleli we-Staedtler uthe ngokuyinhloko yenziwe ngama-wax asekelwe ku-petroleum, ama-pigments kanye nezigcwalisi.Isibabule sinikeza izakhiwo eziyingqayizivele zokubumba ubumba, kufaka phakathi ukuzinza konqenqema nokunamathela kongqimba, kanye nephunga eliyingqayizivele.I-Staedtler iyaqhubeka nokulungisa i-Marsclay Light, esebenzisa ama-microsphere engilazi angenalutho esikhundleni sesulfure, kodwa uyavuma ukuthi ukusebenza kwayo akukakwazi ukufana nokusebenza kokwakheka okujwayelekile kwemboni yayo.
Kukhona ongeke ukwazi ukukwenza ku-VR: lilingisa ilanga laseCalifornia ngokuphelele.Wonke umkhiqizi wezimoto uhlola imodeli ngaphandle elangeni elingapheli.
Njengoba i-GV80 ingena egcekeni lodonga lwe-Genesis ivy, u-Farnham wakhipha elinye ithuluzi elikhethekile: ummese we-steak oshibhile onesibambo sokhuni.Ezandleni eziqinile zikaFarnham, iba yithuluzi eliphelele lokumaka umugqa wokusika kudeshibhodi kaGenesise.
Ubumba lukaGenesise manje lusetshenziswa ngokuqinile ukuze kuqinisekiswe idatha yedijithali.U-Lapine uthe "i-carnival yobusuku bonke" yokuhlanganisa izinguquko zedizayini ezigingqikayo isiphelile.Hlangana neshifu entsha yasebusuku: umshini we-CNC onama-axis amahlanu obizwa nge-Poseidon, ogqugquzelwe iminyango ye-aerospace nezasolwandle, mkhulu kunezindlu eziningi e-Manhattan.Edokodweni lengilazi, amathuluzi amabili okuphotha asebenza kancane ngaphansi kokuqondisa kwe-gantry ephakeme, iribhoni yobumba ye-confetti efafaza njengerobhothi uRodin.Ngesikhathi i-SUV eyi-hatchback iphuma efomini yayo, sabuka i-hypnotic display.Njengesinqamuli semodeli sekwephuzile, i-Poseidon ithathe indawo yomshini wakudala.Entsha ingakwazi ukugaya imodeli emahoreni angaba ngu-80 bese igijima isisebenzi silele.Amamodeli angabantu angagxila endaweni kanye nemininingwane, kusukela ekushaneleni okucashile kwe-fender kuya ekugcineni kwehood.U-Farnham uthe kuzothatha isikhathi eside ukumodela i-grille eyinkimbinkimbi ye-GV80 kusukela ekuqaleni, kukhishwe amanye amathiphu asele endaweni evulekile evulekile.Iphrinta ye-3D ikhafule isiteringi, igiya lever, isibuko esingemuva, nezinye izinto ukuze uzibonele ngokushesha.
U-Farnham uyawazisa amandla ala mathuluzi ahlelekayo.Kodwa wathi ezinye izinto sezilahlekile.Uphuthelwe ukubambisana okuseduze phakathi kwabaklami nabamodelayo—umbono wendabuko wothando wamaciko ezimoto alungisa ukhalo lapha nokhalo lapho."Uzama ukuchaza imibono yabo enezinhlangothi ezimbili ku-3D, futhi kulapho ukwethembana nokusebenzelana kungena khona ngempela," kusho u-Farnham.Lokhu kuhlanganisa nemibono yomdidiyeli ecatshangelwe kahle yokuthi iyiphi indlela ephumelelayo.Ingabe u-Farnham uzizwa engase abe nengoma eshisa izikhotha?ngempela.
"Ngisebenze ku-GV80 super isikhathi eside, futhi abaklami ezinhlangothini zombili babephikisana ngakho futhi becabanga, 'Lokhu kubukeka kushisa kakhulu. Ngizosebenzisa imali yami kulo mklamo.'
ULapine useneminyaka engamashumi eminyaka emodela, futhi manje unomthwalo wemfanelo wokwengamela isimo sonke futhi unokuqonda okucacile kwendima yokusiza yokumodela.Wathi ubumba luyinkolo.Akusenjalo, kodwa indima yayo isajabulisa futhi ibalulekile.
"Kuze kube namuhla, lesi yisinyathelo sokugcina enqubweni yokuklama, lapho ungahlola khona futhi uthole imvume: lo mdlwane uzongena ekukhiqizeni; wonke umuntu uyavuma," esho.
ULapine ngokwakhe ungumklami wesizukulwane sesithathu.Unina uJanet Lapin (osibongo sakhe uKrebs) wayengomunye "wamantombazane aklamayo" kaPiaget, futhi leli gama lokuziqhenya labathukuthelisa abaklami besifazane nangaleso sikhathi.Abashisekayo bazocabanga ngoyise kaLapine: u-Anatole “Tony” Lapine, owaklama i-Porsche 924 ne-928, futhi ngaphansi kobuholi bukaBill Mitchell, wasebenzisana noLarry Shinoda ukuze bakhe u-Corvette Stingray ka-1963 wonyaka.
Lapho u-Earl enomnyango wakhe omusha wezobuciko nemibala, umsebenzi ka-Farnham uwukwakha ithimba lokuklama eliyingxube elihamba kahle phakathi kwesizinda sedijithali nese-analog.Lokhu kukhombisa ukuthi uGenesise usakubona ukubaluleka kwale Play-Doh evuthiwe, okungewona neze umdlalo.
“Kuyangijabulisa ukubona abantu abasha bekwazisa lokhu,” kusho uFarnham.“Abafuni ukuhlala phambi kwekhompyutha ngaso sonke isikhathi; bafuna ukusebenza ngezandla zabo... Umbono wami uwukunxenxa ithimba elingakwazi ukwenza wonke umsebenzi wokubaza, ukumodela ngedijithali, ukuskena, ukugaya. ukuhlela umshini-ukuze babe nawo wonke amathuluzi kukhithi yamathuluzi."
Noma kunjalo, kusenombuzo owodwa ongenakugwenywa: Ingabe amathuluzi edijithali ayoba mahle kangangokuthi athathe indawo yobumba ngokuphelele?
“Lokhu kungenzeka,” kusho uLapin."Akekho owaziyo ukuthi lolu hambo luzoyaphi. Kodwa ngicabanga ukuthi sinenhlanhla ngokufundiswa emhlabeni we-analog, ngakho-ke siyazazisa izinombolo."
"Ekuhlaziyeni kokugcina, asiklami izimoto zomhlaba obonakalayo. Siklama izimoto zangempela lapho abantu besakwazi ukuthinta, bashayele futhi bahlale ezintweni ze-3D. Lona wonke umhlaba obonakalayo ongeke unyamalale."
