The Smart, Connected Suitcase
December 16, 2014 in Daily Bulletin
Zainab Mudallal wrote about the next “smart” device – a suitcase:
- Travelers can control “Bluesmart” luggage through a smartphone app which can unlock, weigh, and track the location of the suitcase.
- Wander too far away from it and it can be configured to alert you.
- It has a built in battery that can be used to charge other devices.
- Its sensors collect data such as distance traveled, time spent abroad, and airports visited. This data can be viewed in real time from a smartphone.
Read about the suitcase, how its makers are working to ensure that TSA is okay with it, how you can get a 40% discount, and more over here.
