Samsung decided to try its hand at building a safer smart bike just for those people – the ones who hit the pavement day in and day out and use their bicycle for all their transportation needs. The frame of this next-generation cycle was designed by Samsung Maestros Academy student Alice Biotti and hand-built by Italian frame builder Giovanni Pelizzoli, and it's packed to the brim with all sorts of badass tech, all of which is supported and controlled by – you guessed it – a Samsung smartphone. Check it out:
Pretty slick, no? This beautifully-crafted single-speed
machine has built-in lasers that generate an on-the-go bike lane (for
safer night riding), a rear camera, on-board GPS, and several other
safety features. The frame itself even absorbs vibrations for a more
comfortable ride.
Unfortunately, this is just a concept bike. While it's
probably unlikely that we'll ever see it go into production, hopefully
other bicycle manufacturers will take note and implement some of this
tech into their commuters.
