and like the car, we can integrate all kinds of sensing

就像那辆车一样，我们能完善各种

to be aware of human activity, so if there's a baby or

a puppy in the way, you won't have a problem.

So the developers say, well this is great. Okay,

开发商说也觉得这样很不错，很赞同

so if we have a conventional building,

所以如果我们有一栋传统的建筑

we have a fixed envelope, maybe we can put in 14 units.

If they function as if they're twice as big,

如果他们能用起来像两倍的空间一样

we can get 28 units in.

That means twice as much parking, though.

这就意味着有两倍的泊车空间

Parking's really expensive. It's about 70,000 dollars

泊车真的是很贵的，在一栋建筑物里

per space to build a conventional parking spot

建一个传统型的停车场，每个车位

inside a building.

大约要7万美金

So if you can have folding and autonomy,

所以如果能折叠，也有自动化

you can do that in one seventh of the space.

那么你只需七分之一个停车位

That goes down to 10,000 dollars per car,

每辆车就只需花1万美金而已

just for the cost of the parking.

fills out the light when necessary to full spectrum white light,

and saves maybe 30, 40 percent in energy consumption,

we think, over even conventional state-of-the-art

lighting systems.

还要节能

This just shows you the data that comes from the sensors

这里的数据是来自那些传感器的

that are embedded in the furniture.

就安装在家具里面

We don't really believe in cameras to do things in homes.

我们不认为摄像机能在家里帮得上忙

We think these little wireless sensors are more effective.

我们觉得这些小型无线传感器更给力

We think we can also personalize sunlight.

我们也可以将日光个性化

That's sort of the ultimate personalization in some ways.

某种程度上，这算是一种终极的个性化了

So we, we've looked at articulating mirrors of the facade

我们现在看到的就是连接镜的正面

that can throw shafts of sunlight anywhere into the space,

它能往空中投射光束

therefore allowing you to shade most of the glass

这样就能在像今天一样热的天气里

on a hot day like today.

遮蔽掉大部分的光线

In this case, she picks up her phone, she can map

在这个例子中，她拿起手机，在准备食物时

food preparation at the kitchen island to a particular

在岛式厨房上指定位置映射出阳光

location of sunlight. An algorithm will keep it in that location

as long as she's engaged in that activity.

的设计工厂待过很长时间

where the they have a shared shop and shared Fablab,

那儿有共享的商店和私人实验室

shared quiet spaces,

共享安静的环境

electronics spaces,

电子设备环境

recreation places.

We think ultimately all of this stuff can come together,

我们相信这些最终都会结合在一起

a new model for mobility, a new model for housing,

成为新型的流动方式，新型的住宅方式

a new model for how we live and work,

but in the end the main thing we need to focus on

但最终我们需要关注的

are people. Cities are all about people.
