I made this product mainly because of my uncomfortable trip in Hangzhou. It was in a hot summer in June. I was going for a summer camp in Hangzhou and I took a taxi from the train station. I sat at the backseat of the car and it was almost no cooler than outside. I felt strange because the air conditioner was in full operation. Then I suddenly discovered that most of the cold air was trapped on the side of the driver by the antitheft system made of organic glass、 which only had several small holes to let the air pass. I realized that such device was defective. Though there is another kind of device simply made of steel that is easier to let air pass、 it not only produces a sense of blockaded、 as the one made of organic glass also does、 but also makes the passengers feel like in a prison. After I returned from the camp、 I started to make the first draft. It was made of organic glass and functioned as a window curtain with tracks at both top and bottom of it. After I made the prototype、 however、 the device did not work well. The unfolding would often be stuck and the device is fragile that it can even keep working after punched by an adult. I was then inspired by the electrically operated gate and made the present version.
