演讲标题："Sanjay Dastoor: A skateboard, with a boost" | 带加速器的滑板

内容概要：想象一下有一个电动交通工具能很快的带你去上班或到6英里距离内的任何地方，不怕塞车不

用加油。想象你还可以随身携带它。是的，这个加了马达的滑板可以改变你早上上班的面貌。

Sanjay Dastoor is the co-founder of Boosted Boards, a startup that aims to build the world.s

lightest electric vehicles.

Today I'm going to show you an electric vehicle that weighs

今天我给大家看一个电动交通工具 它比自行车还

less than a bicycle, that you can carry with you anywhere, that

轻, 你可以随身带到任何地方 在墙上插座充电15分

you can

charge off

a normal wall outlet in 15 minutes, and

钟, 你就能够跑1000公里远 电费大约就1块钱。

[00:12]

you can run it for 1,000 kilometers on about a dollar of

electricity.

But when I say the word electric vehicle, people think about

但是我说电动交通工具时, 人们一想到交通工具,他

vehicles. They think about cars and

motorcycles

and

bicycles

,

们会想到汽车 摩托车和自行车,那些我们日常用的

交通工具。[00:32]

and the vehicles that you use every day.

But if you

come about

it from a different perspective, you can

但是你如果从不同的角度来看, 你会创造更多有趣

的, 更新奇的概念。[00:41]

create some more interesting, more novel

concepts

.

所以我们做了个东西。[00:48]

So we built something.

我这儿有几个零件在口袋里。[00:51]

I've got some of the pieces in my pocket here.

这是马达。[00:53]

So this is the motor.

This motor has enough power to take you up the hills of San

这个马达有足够的能量带你 在旧金山以每小时20

Francisco at about 20 miles per hour, about 30 kilometers an

英里的速度爬坡, 大约每小时30公里, 这个电池 能

支持大约六英里,或10公里的范围[00:55]

hour, and this battery, this battery right here has about six

miles of range, or 10 kilometers,

charge off:

冲销;把…作为损耗

motorcycles:

n.[车辆]摩托车,电单车(motorcycle的复数)/vi.骑摩托车(motorcycle的第三人称

单数)

bicycles:

n.[车辆]自行车;脚踏车(bicycle的复数)

come about:

v.发生;产生;改变方向

concepts:

n.概念,观念;思想

(concept复数形式)

which is enough to cover about half of the car trips in the U.S.

足够走大约一半的 美国境内的汽车旅程。[01:11]

alone.

But the best part about these components is that we bought

them at a toy store.

These are from remote control

airplanes

.

And the performance of these things has gotten so good that

if you think about vehicles a little bit differently, you can

really change things.

So today we're going to show you one example of how you

can use this.

Pay attention to not only how fun this thing is, but also how

the

portability

that comes with this can totally change the

way you interact with a city like San Francisco.

(Music)

[6 Mile Range] [Top Speed Near 20mph]

[Uphill Climbing]

[Regenerative Braking]

(Applause)

(Cheers) So we're going to show you what this thing can do.

It's really

maneuverable

. You have a

hand-held

remote, so

you can pretty easily control

acceleration

,

braking

, go in

reverse if you like, also have braking.

最妙之处是这些零件是 我们在一家玩具店买来

的。[01:16]

这些是遥控飞机上的。[01:20]

这些零件的性能太好了 你要是从不同的角度来考

虑交通工具, 你真能改变事情。[01:22]

今天我们给你们示范一下 如何使用这个工具。

[01:28]

别光看它多有趣, 也看看它的轻便是如何 能够完全

改变你与像旧金山这样的城市的互动的。[01:32]

（音乐）[01:43]

（6 英里的范围,最高速度接近20英里/小时）

[02:02]

（爬坡）[02:05]

（再生制动）[02:23]

（掌声）[02:50]

（欢呼） 我们将展示它能做什么。[02:56]

很容易操作的。它有一个手动遥控器, 很容易控制

加速,刹车, 倒着走也可以,同样可以刹车。[03:03]

airplanes:

n.(美)[航]飞机(airplane的复数)

portability:

n.[计]可移植性;轻便;可携带性

maneuverable:

adj.有机动性的;容易

操作的;可调动的

hand-held:

adj.手提式的,便携式的

acceleration:

n.加速,促进;[物]加速度

braking:

v.制动(brake的现在分

词);刹车;制动系统/n.刹车

它轻得令人难以置信。[03:21]

It's incredible just how light this thing is.

I mean, this is something you can pick up and carry with you

我是说,你可以拿起来,随身携带 不论去哪。[03:23]

anywhere you go.

So I'll leave you with one of the most

compelling

facts about

this technology and these kinds of vehicles.

This uses 20 times less energy for every mile or kilometer that

you travel than a car, which means not only is this thing fast

to charge and really cheap to build,

but it also

reduces

the

footprint

of your energy use

in terms

of

your transportation.

So instead of looking

at large

amounts of energy needed for

each person in this room to

get around

in a city, now you can

look at much smaller amounts and more

sustainable

transportation.

So next time you think about a vehicle, I hope, like us, you're

thinking about something new.

我要告诉你们这个技术和这种的交通工具的 最引

人注目的事实之一。[03:28]

比起汽车来, 它每英里或公里能节约20倍的能量,

也就是说这个不仅充电快 做起来也很便宜,[03:34]

就运输而言也减少了 能量的消耗。[03:46]

所以不用找大量的能源 来让每个人都有空间在市

内活动, 你可以关注耗能量更小 和更持久的交通工

具。[03:51]

所以,下次你要是考虑一种交通工具, 希望,像我们这

样,想点新奇的东西。[04:01]

compelling:

adj.引人注目的;强制的;激发兴趣的/v.强迫;以强力获得(compel的ing形式)

reduces:

v.降低;减少;将…归纳;折合

(reduce的第三人称单数形式)

footprint:

n.足迹;脚印

in terms of:

依据;按照;在…方面;以…措词

at large:

详尽的;未被捕的,

整个的

get around:

到处走走;逃避;说服;传开来(等于getround);有办法应付;有办法应付局面

sustainable:

adj.可以忍受的;足

可支撑的;养得起的;可持续的

谢谢大家！[04:06]

Thank you.
