Swing Bridge

The Swing Bridge was a portable,

lightweight bridge intended to span a body

of water for armies to cross, and then quickly

disassemble in order to tow away. Equipped with

a rope and wheels, the lightweight bridge

was designed for easy transport.

Printing Press

Leonardo da Vinci studied the Guttenberg

printing press and finely-tuned it for greater

efficiency. In his design, he used a hand press

with an automatic system that moved

the type-saddle forward and back along

a tilted surface, making printing faster and easier.

Multi-barreled Canon

The 12-barreled gun carriage was developed to give

the traditional canon additional firepower and was

a potentially effective weapon against a line

of advancing troops.

Armored Car

A precursor to the modern-day tank,

the armored car was capable of multi-directional

movement and was equipped with

cannons arranged in a 360-degree

firing range around its circumference.
