Gardiner CH4 – Plumbing Free Toilet

Posted by EscapeDigitalMedia



It is sad to hear that some places are having problems in disposing off their own wastes. That is the creation of the Gardiner CH4 by Virginia Gardiner is a total blessing to these places. The CH4 is a plumbing free toilet that turns human waste into a bio-fuel for sanitation strapped cities. With the CH4 plumbing free toilet, human wastes will be carried down to an odorless and sealed compartment and in every three to four days, it will transport to bio-digester and get some cooking fuel. This toilet will not only save water but will also lower down the energy usage for cooking.

Uber Emergency Shelter

Posted by EscapeDigitalMedia



When disaster strikes, many of our folks became homeless in anyway, and those homeless victims need some comfortable shelter to live in. This situation made the designer Rafael Smith came into the idea of the Uber Emergency Shelter. Very easy to install, and has a solar panels that can accommodate a small refrigerator and illuminates the whole shelter. The materials for uber emergency shelter can be easily shipped on a compact form, and assembles easily too. The only downside it has is that, it can be a bit shaky to materialize especially in an uneven area. In addition, the price of this shelter can be a big question. Will it be affordable enough as an evacuation area?

A system of intelligent solar panels called ” SUN TRACKER “. This system makes it possible to provide electricity to the on-board accessories while the vehicle is in a stationary position. An on-board computer and a GPS (Global Positioning System) calculate the optimal position for the SUN TRACKER. - A pneumatic suspension, which lowers the vehicle and sets its structure on the tires for improved comfort and a better stabilization in a stationary position.

Moki Mobile Kitchen designed for campers

Posted by EscapeDigitalMedia


There is something very special about camp cooking. Everything just seems to taste so very good while camping! For the folks who love to lick their fingers from self-made cuisine, even al-fresco, Moki Mobile Kitchen is apt for them. At first glance, this ultimate camping kitchen looks like a big suitcase on wheels. But once put it to work, this kitchen will flaunt its true colors…..or should I say true functions. It is ingeniously designed to allow you to carry your stuff along and cook too. Consisting of four detachable parts, each one has a purpose to it.

All this along with an integrated (yet removable) table, umbrella makes it a must for campers seeking a bit of more eating comforts on their excursions.
