Accessing the GPS and other features on your smartphone can sometimes be a little tricky when cycling through cities and urban areas. now one company called Asphalt is hoping to change this and have created a next-generation by computer that doubles as a personal assistant.
The HAïKU bike computer and assistant has been designed to help you navigate the busy streets in safety, as well as keep you updated on notifications directly from your smartphone as they happen.
Watch the video below to learn more about this palm sized by computer and its features and functions. Its developers explain a little more about its inspiration and design.
We have access to information whenever and wherever we want with our smartphone. Unfortunately, there is no proper way to do so while riding a bike. The only safe way to check our mobile is to stop, or sometimes even take risks by using it while riding.
With HAïKU we are offering a new solution: all the information is available in your smartphone, leave it on your pocket and we give you access to it. Like a smartwatch optimized for your bike with :
• simple and clear information,
• dedicated touchless User Interface,
• control on when to access information.HAïKU is a brand new category of bike and smartphone accessory designed to fit perfectly in the life and everyday rides of an urban cyclist.
For more information on the new HAïKU bike assistant jump over to the Kickstarter website for details where it is available to back from €50 for early bird backers.
