Motor-assisted luggage

Filed under: DAILY LIFE — 200702 at 12:12 am on Thursday, June 26, 2008

Although it is not clever to take a lot of baggage while traveling, in some conditions, you have to do this. This liveluggage is designed for those unclever guys.

The unique anti-gravity handle can translate 85% of the gravity to the wheels which can get extra power from built-in motors. Thanks to the help of the sensors, the motors can detect the direction of the luggage and then provide assistance. In order to save energy, this system won’t be started until the weight is more than 7 kilo.

The motors are powered by a rechargeable 12V NiMH battery which will run for about 2 hours on a single charge. What’s more, while not in use, the wheel can function as a generator when the assistant system is not required.
