[ad_1]

Skylock is a smart health connected padlock whose objective is not only to prevent theft, but also to ensure the safety of the cyclist by preventing an accident.

After the Vanhawks Valor smart health connected bike, here is the Skylock smart padlock. In itself, the principle is not a revolution since there are already many smart health connected padlocks that allow warn of attempted theft the bike holder. In addition to this functionality, the Velo Labs Skylock wants to go even further andensuring the safety of the cyclist.

It is thanks to an accelerometer, that the Skylock is capable of determine if you have been involved in an accident : a Bluetooth connection will allow you to communicate with the phone to possibly prevent emergencies or friends during a fall. On the autonomy side, the padlock is really practical: one hour of solar energy will allow it to last a whole month.

Obviously, Velo Labs has not forgotten the "social" side since it is a question of setting up a community around the Skylock which will allow owners to rent their bikes. A remote padlock release system will be the key (!!) to success. Beware of Vélib, we found your competitor!

Skylock: A complete padlock, but a little expensive

In addition to being particularly practical, the smart health connected padlock is very stylish. Founded by a team of former engineers from Boeing and Jawbone, Velo Labs has everything to succeed. Besides, he even allowed himself to boycott a Kickstarter or IndieGogo to launch himself on his site its own collection campaign of funds. The early-bird rate is $ 159 (exceptionally $ 139 today), against $ 249 for the official marketing. According to their forecasts, the first packages should be sent by the end of 2014.
