PIONEER URBAN MOBILITY WITH THE E-KICK SCOOTER

Most of us have the memories of the childhood of riding and dragging  our feet on the urban scooter.

It was certainly quite a amazing experience.

Well ,Don't  worry even if you don't have such memories with you  because the E-KICK is here for you then.

E-KICK is a electrically assisted urban scooter made and designed in the collaboration between  PEUGEOT and  MICRO MOBILITY .

This scooter was unveiled on the 23 MAY  with the launch of new PEUGEOT 3008 SUV .The SUV have a special docking station in the boot space to charge up the scooter.

In the terms of size , the E-KICK  is quite a compact one  and weighs only about 8.5 KG.

The scooter could reach upto 25 kmph  with the electric motor powering its rear wheel .Once charged full the scooter is able to cover the max 12 km . Charging is not a big issue on this scooter as it gets fully charged in about an hour and it could be charged through any of the regular sockets. 

Apart from being a  electrically assisted urban scooter E-KICK offers a various major innovations to optimize  your  ride .

The scooter comes with the "MOTION CONTROL" electrical assistance. Still you have to push it yourself but the scooter optimizes the amount of electrical assistance based on you movements.

The on board foot brake has a "REGENERATIVE BRAKING SYSTEM " which charges the battery of scooter every time you apply the braking force.

For portability purposes  a innovative handlebar design  has been used which allow it to be easily folded in a few seconds and to be rolled along on its front wheel so that the user doesn't have to carry it.

Overall this scooter seems to provide a active ,natural experience for your journey.

MONITOR YOUR EVERY STEP AND GENERATE ELECTRICITY JUST BY WALKING AROUND THE SMART FLOORING TILES

Who could have imagined  that the very floor on which we are walking could be used to generate the power to lighten the cities.this very new innovative technology to generate (renewable)power is termed as FOOTFALL HARVESTING.

Well,this this new technology has already been placed in some buidings ,thanks to the effort of the company named PAVEGEN .

Inventor Laurence Kemball-Cook, a 26-year-old industrial design engineer, created a tiled walkway from the West Ham underground station to Olympic Park. The walkway looked ordinary enough, but the tiles were capable of converting the force of people’s footsteps into electricity — more than enough electricity to keep the walkway streetlamps illuminated at full power all night, and at half power during the day.

These tiles are having the sensors which detects the movements over it and simultaneously they convert they produce the same amount of energy from it.

“Every time someone steps on the tile, they generate 7 watts of power,” creator Laurence Kemball-Cook told The Guardian. “The energy is stored within batteries, and then used to power lighting when it’s needed. It’s an off-grid power source for cities.”


The flooring looks quite similar to the regular floors from above but beneath few layers of it there are quite a large circuitry. This technology is quite appealing and environment friendly but its high expenses are coming in its way to get implemented on the large scale .
It costs over $1,600 (1,250 pounds) to cover a square meter with Pavegen.

Smart Flooring technology doesn't just get over with the power generation .
There are few other companies which are using some other ways to make our floor smarter. 
One such company is FUTURE SHAPE . It's working in the field of the ground monitoring ,where you floor could monitor your every move on it. 
The company's product like SENSE FLOOR has been installed in places like nursing homes and homes .
In nursing homes  the alert is received when someone falls on floor. In homes it could be used for burglar alarms  etc . it has countless applications so far.

You may be wondering, how it works??Well , A very thin layer of sensors is installed into the textiles, and radio signals send that data to a central data warehouse.

All these SMART FLOORING technologies are sure to change our way of living in coming few years and would make our home more and more smarter.

STAY COOL WITH THESE SELF SHADING WINDOWS

You all must have heard about the automatic tinting in spectacle glasses. This technology grew quite popular as it helped the glass wearers to minimize the damage caused to eyes due to bright sunlight as these glasses automatically darken on exposure to sunlight and return back to normal in dark conditions.

Wouldn't it be great if windows in our houses are also self-shading just ike these glasses. Well , the team of MIT engineers are working on the same project .

These researchers have created a glass infused with a ELECTROCHROMIC material which automatically  undergoes change in the color when to electricity.
This glass can  change from transparent to almost black instantly in response to the electricity .

The material responsible for the color change is a sponge-like metal-organic framework (MOF) that is capable or conducting both electrons and ions at high speeds. When electricity is applied to the window, the window’s changes causing the MOF to react and change color. Once in its black state, the electricity can be turned off, and the window can remain darkened without any further input or manipulation.

Before this also the attempts have been made to create this type of glass but according to the MIT engineers its the most efficient till now as it depends upon just the electricity input and switching is fast.
Till now this idea is just published in the chemistry generals .
