Land AirBus
The Land AirBus is an "innovation" that we are currently using as a demonstration during facilitator training. The exploration currently has more than 20 "arcs" and 562 specific implications, including examples where the same "first-order" implications have been explored for second- and third-order implications by completely different teams. Some "arcs" have also been scored from different points of view including "regular commuters" and "Land AirBus Leadership." The "center" is driven by a video that provides very detailed information on the innovation.

Assumptions:
Major metropolitan area, i.e., MSP, deploys a fleet of "Land Airbus" vehicles on five of its busiest routes.
The "Land Airbuses" have been operating for 30 days.
The bus schedule makes "station stops" every 15 minutes.
A traditional 30 minute travel segment takes only 20 minutes with the "Land Airbus."
The bus holds 300 passengers, seating for 200.
Drivers and mechanics are extensively trained by manufacturer.
The vehicle is electric powered - quiet - ultra low maintenance
Bus is WiFi enabled.
Bus has restrooms
It is unaffected by weather.
Single flat tires are a non-issue because of the multiple tires.
