After demonstrated that it is able to produce a powerful smartphone, Xiaomi prepares us another product as important – smart aluminium-magnesium suitcase. Together, they will offer tourists the opportunity to protect their valuables. Is currently in a crowd funding stage awaiting to production.
Like the regular suitcase, this has a handle which is adjustable to 4 levels and there are 4 wheels in the base for easy movement.
Designed in Germany and manufactured by Xiaomi in China, Xiaomi smart suitcase is made of 100% aluminium-magnesium alloy thereby giving it super safety. It weighs 4.4 kg and its dimensions are (550 x 375 x 215mm). It is 20 inches high and has a capacity of 31 litres.
Xiaomi suitcase comes with Bluetooth 4.0 for connecting to smartphones (Android 4.4 or above and iOS devices running iOS 7.0 or above). The suitcase can be locked and unlocked using an app on your smartphone. The app can also display any unlocked that have occurred in our absence.
For now not much is known about the facilities offered by this app. I for one would prefer to exist and the ability to monitor the distance between smartphone and suitcase. I believe this would lead to a considerable drop in airport luggage misplaced or lost through various locations.
