It has been developed by several years at MIT together with the city of Copnhagen, one of the world\u2019s most innovative places fir cycling.<\/p>\n<p>The original inventors licensed the technology to a astratup called Superpedestrian.<\/p>\n<p>But \u00a0how does this innovative wheel works? It basically learns how you paddle, integrates with your motion and captures your energy, in order to give you a \u201cpush\u201d when you need it\u00a0<strong>with 3 to 10 times your regular foot power.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>All technology for Copenhagen wheel is contained within the red casing, including motor, removable batteries, wireless connectivity, smart locking, multiple sensors and an embedded control system.<\/p>\n<p>Besides, it is possible to customize the ride by using the smartphone, gathering information from the environment for example.<\/p>\n<p>In order to discover more about this great innovative solution which transform any bike into a smart bicycle, you can consult the following patent document:\u00a0\u00a0\u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/www.protectia.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/11\/US20110133542.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hybrid sensor-enabled wheel and associated systems, multi-hub wheel spoke systems, and methods of manufacturing and installing wheel spokes<\/a>&#8220;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.protectia.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/copenhagen-wheel-patent.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-16115\" alt=\"copenhagen wheel patent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protectia.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/copenhagen-wheel-patent.jpg\" width=\"688\" height=\"848\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In most of European cities, bicycle has come to be one of the main ways to get around.
