    SMART CYCLE LANE ARE PITCHED TO UK

    This story took place on October 28, 2014 in UK. This is about three power lines on the road to guide cyclists at night. The three lines merge into one and you feel that it guides you. With fog, you see them more than with standard light.

    The dynamic paint, interactive light and electric priority lane make the road sustainable and interactive through means of smart lighting, harvesting energy and traffic signs that adapt to the road situation. On the other hand, glow in the dark lining absorbs energy during the day and glows in the dark, the lining emits light for as long as the 10 hours. The designer, Mr. Roosegaarde thinks half of the ideas will influence roads in the future to make them energy neutral and functional.

    In conclusion, this story is important to understand how technology can change our world and life of a way extraordinary.

    “SMART” LUGGAGE WILL TEXT YOU WHEN IT GETS LOST



    This article is about smart luggage that has a GPS transmitter, this technology advancement has taken place with the jumbo jet maker Airbus. The smart luggage has a GPS track chip that is embedded inside the bags, these chips are able to transmit their locations to travel and even contacting airlines directly when they get lost.

    This event occurred when AT&T unveiled a similar concept at a demonstration in May at the Paris Air Show. The product known as “BAG2GO” can be tracked via a smartphone app, the final plan is for the luggage to work with airlines IT systems, contacting the carriers directly and arranging for delivery to your home or hotel. Basically, Smart Luggage is important because most of the airlines loses your luggage all the time, so it can take hours or days to find them.
