ArabiaWeather.com - The Canadian company “Cycle Labs” has created a device to convert a bicycle into a smart means of transportation, calling it “Smart Halo”, according to the “Mashable” website.
The site said that once the small, spherical-shaped device is attached to the bicycle and connected to the phone, it begins to work as a visual tool for navigation, as all that the individual has to do is use the special navigation application on his phone or smart watch and select the point he wants to reach, and then the device will By guiding him to his destination through lighting, right or left.
The device provides a wide range of statistical data to the user, such as the distance traveled by his bicycle, his average speed, as well as the calories he burned.
Other features offered by Smart Halo include the ability to track a bicycle through a special application on the phone, in addition to issuing an alarm when thieves attempt to steal it.
It is remarkable that it can be used as a lamp at night, and its manufacturers say that it is able to work for about 3 weeks continuously before being recharged.
The device achieved tremendous success through the “Kickstarter” website for financing emerging projects, as it collected - as of the date of writing these lines - about $ 190,000 within days, or 3 times the required amount, provided that “Smart Halo” will be put on the market next May in return for $149.
