Sada Hubless Foldable Bike

Sada

Sada Bike is a hubless folding bicycle with 26 inch wheels. The large wheels support a comfortable riding posture similar to that of a standard bicycle. Each wheel is held at three points: the front points are set in the fender structure, while the rear points sit inside the rim. A chain transmits motion to a lower wheel, which transfers torque to the rear rim. The frame turns around a single central fulcrum, so the whole structure closes with one movement into a shape close to the size of an umbrella. The folded bicycle can be carried on the shoulder or moved as a trolley.

Ai Waist Relaxing Mattress

Ai Waist

Ai Waist is a smart mattress designed to support the lower back during sleep. A sleep analysis system senses the weight of each user and adjusts the spring contraction to match the curve of the spine. Zoned airbags at the waist and the legs give a gentle massage, and a graphene module adds warmth to help the muscles relax. The surface fabric is antibacterial and anti-mite. A preset wake-up function uses airbag movement or lumbar heating for a calm start to the morning. Separate left and right zones allow two people to use the mattress.
