>> BLUESMART - WORLDS FIRST SMART CARRY ON
I have been traveling a tonne lately - boy would this be awesome to have!
Bluesmart
is luggage made for the 21st century - a high quality carry-on suitcase designed
to work together with your phone. The team have really put a lot of thought
into the pains and nuances that surround air-travel and have put together
a indiegogo campaign so travelers like myself can get all high tech and cool.
Their "kickass" (their words) features include:
- digitally controlled lock
- location tracking
- trip data logging
- battery charger (for mobile phone, tablets)
- built in scale (for contents)
- proximity notifications
- ease of passing through airport security
All of these cool features for only $260 USD (RRP $450 USD) - it is no
surprise to see that almost 6000 funders have gotten on board with this
campaign and see their $50,000 USD target be blown out to just over
$1.3 million USD - with just over four days remaining!
The team have done all their relevant homework and field testing to
ensure that the extra electronics integrated into the suitcase will not
cause raised eyebrows at security checkpoints and have received various
certifications to help ensure you can get on your way easily.
It is great they have a Travel Sentry® Approved lock so the TSA wont
go ripping your suitcase open - but when would you be checking this in?
With all of these electronic gizmos inside gaining extra attention you
surely would be stupid to stash contraband in there as well.
It seems to be an all-in-one great suitcase, just a pity shipment wont
happen until July 2015!
