From my experience a little bit of soap on the inside of the windows helps a great deal with the fogging. Got the trick from the diving community where they use baby shampoo on the inside of the mask. (Baby shampoo doesn't sting) In the velomobile there is no risk of getting it in your eyes so I'm using dishwasher soap. Just a line of soap on the window and spread it out with a piece of cloth.
Wax up your windows from the outside or make them otherwise hydrophobic. From the inside, the same. On the inside, you can even apply the cheapest of them all - laundry soap. And a steady air flow is solving this problem very efficiently too; you've already demonstrated it by opening the window, but I understand the issue of incoming rainwater. Maybe there is a way to cover up these window openings on the top from the rain by attaching some kind of polycarbonate cut-off. Further, there must be a bigger air outlet behind your head/back/bottom than the inlet surface area of the window openings in front of you. It has something to do with reducing airflow resistance inside the cabin. You are not located in a frosty, cold area - so the continuous flow of fresh air from the outside should not be a freezing problem - and it takes the humidity of your breath and sweat outside. And make water-draining wholes on the bottom of your automobile; those puddles are sources of evaporation and air humidity too. Anyhow, thanks for sharing. Appreciated it. Please, keep them coming.
Better ventilation is far easier - a vent at the rear will pull air through the velo once you get up to speed. A fan blowing up over the windows from the bottom might lap be rather useful in this style.

I used to try to keep up with fogging with a cloth. 10 years ago I switched to a small catalytic heater. Completely solved the problem.
hi, what is your velomobile brand & the model?
@@shahjehan534 I made it
Great to see you back - and enjoying our crappy summer weather!

You need a boat in those conditions,not a velo.
Hi. How about cleaning up the steam with a wiper like one that is usually used to clean windows or shower doors?

No videos anymore?
I have been really busy but hope to do some more fairly soon. The white velomobile will be for sale soon as I intend to buy a brand new one. Thanks
I think you would be better off putting a screen in there and use cameras.
