THE COPHENHAGEN WHEEL
Smart, responsive and elegant, the Copenhagen Wheel is a new emblem
for urban mobility. It transforms ordinary bicycles quickly into
hybrid e-bikes that also
function as mobile sensing units. The Copenhagen Wheel allows you to
capture
the energy dissipated while cycling and braking and save it for when
you need
a bit of a boost. It also maps pollution levels, traffic congestion,
and road conditions in real-time.
SENSE AND SUSTAINABILITY
Controlled through your smart phone, the Copenhagen Wheel becomes
a natural extension of your everyday life. You can use your phone to
unlock and
lock your bike, change gears and select how much the motor assists
you.
As you cycle, the wheel’s sensing unit is also capturing your effort
level and
information about your surroundings, including road conditions, carbon
monoxide,
NOx, noise, ambient temperature and relative humidity. Access this
data
through your phone or the web and use it to plan healthier bike
routes,
to achieve your exercise goals or to meet up with friends on the go.
You can also share your data with friends, or with your city -
anonymously
if you wish – thereby contributing to a fine-grained database of
environmental information from which we can all benefit.
