Bubble factory
The current times force us to take unusual solutions, which results in our innovative project.
The bubbles' being at a stationary spot is one thing, but they are mobile and have wheels? Feasibility and safety might be a problem.

We also unable to visualize the issue of locomotion of the bubbles and their commands for functional logistics, just as we are also concerned with the termal comfort within each bubble. The proposal is super original, but I still see a way to go to resolve issues of logistics and air conditioning.
