ACTON's smart health connected skates under the Christmas tree?

[ad_1]

The Californian start-up ACTON has raised funds for production! It’s off for a new mobility adventure with smart health connected electric rollerskates that should arrive in time (that’s their promise) to be delivered before Christmas. Did you know roller skates, skates, roller blades? Well here are the “smart health connected skates”.

smart health connected and intelligent

Make no mistake! ACTON's smart health connected skates are not made for free ride and will not allow you to do somersaults on ramps and curbs. What we are offered here is a new, rather “soft” urban mode of travel, like a scooter. The “rocketskates” smart health connected roller skates – which support up to 125 kg – offer you a new mode of transport, electrically assisted and for urban use.

Smart?

These roller skates have three nice assets to their credit.

The firstis that they allow you to stay on "normally". No need to have your shoes in your backpack … As long as you don’t wear 15 cm heels, rocketskates adapt to all shoes. The foot does not make any particular effort, it remains placed in the device. The speed is regulated by a forward / backward rocking movement. To stop, we press on the heel.

Second asset : The grip seems easy. No need to have roller-skated before this experience. The foot grazes the ground constantly and it suffices to perform a rocking movement forwards so that the toes take over from the motor that drives the rollerblades … and you can take over by walking.

Third asset : The last asset is certainly the main feat of a new new mode of travel .. its electric assistance. Each skate is equipped with two individual motors. In all, these are four synchronized motors that carry you and effortlessly take you up to 20 km / h at peak (that's the speed of a bike in town). In the ESC anti-skid system of cars, the motors of the smart health connected roller blades are constantly synchronized with each other to offer you a uniform trajectory. This is certainly where the big effort of this technology is located. Maintain a rectilinear trajectory while obeying the orders of the "rider" when he wants to turn, brake or stop.

smart health connected?

Yes yes, the ACTON rocketskates are good! First of all, between them … The motors are permanently interconnected. So that your two feet go at the same speed… Let your movements be synchronized and fluid.

Then there is of course the playful side that we all expect! "What is it doing with my smartphone?" For the moment, the application does not bring much, but it promises to evolve. The Californian firm is making a big appeal to the SDK developers to make their product even more attractive.

The application

Developed for Android and Iphone, the app mainly offers several interesting things:

– The first is followed by your “consumption” to know where you are on the battery / autonomy side.

– The second is the follow the route. Know your geolocation, your journey time, your speed. All this on your smartphone.

– Third interest, the “remote control". Even if this is not a feature that the manufacturer wants to highlight, it seems that you can guide your skates from the application.

– Finally, the app also offers “network” treasure hunts . You can prepare a virtual route on your map by placing flags at specific locations that competitors must find in Real Life. We find the flags … We earn points. It would seem that this functionality can also be used to be “remote controlled” from point A to point B. Even more fun… You can remotely control your roller skates and have them come to your feet… or even more fun: take them order your skate's equipped skates! Watch the ehealth !
