Answers
Answer:
r. Mitchell was the Alexander W. Dreyfoos Jr. professor of Architecture and Media Arts and Sciences at M.I.T. and the former dean of M.I.T.’s school of architecture and planning. He was also the vital force behind the Smart Cities research group at M.I.T.’s Media Lab, which offered ideas of “smart cities” and new automobile designs.
“A major portion of this new urban infrastructure focused on revamping urban transportation as we know it and included the development of the CityCar, a lightweight, electric, shared vehicle that folds and stacks like supermarket shopping carts at convenient locations and has all essential mechanical systems housed in the car’s wheels,” said M.I.T. “Other Smart City innovations include the folding electric RoboScooter and GreenWheel, which turns an ordinary bicycle into an electric-assisted one.”
