The Ford Motor Company has announced plans to implement Smart Mobility Plan. The corporation has unveiled the MoDe:Flex concept an eBikethat provides hands-free, turn-by-turn navigation while tracking your heart rate. It also bring all the real-time data to your smartwatch as well.
Connecting to users' smartphones by utilizing the MoDe:Link app, the MoDe:Flex provides up to the minute information pertaining to navigation, weather, time and traffic, among other features.
A user with a smartwatch can then activate a feature such as "no sweat" mode, which, based on the rider's heart rate, can increase electric pedal assist to ensure a rider does not break a sweat. So, for those bike riders who have the issue of showing up to drenched in sweat, there's an app for that.
There is even more to this eBike. Ford also announced that the wearable device comes with safety notifications. Like when your about to hit a pothole. The handlebars will trigger a vibration and the smartwatch will beep as a warning signal. So that your face doesn't get notified by the pavement.
Check out the video below for more information. It will get you pumped about this eBike!

This house in Austin Texas sits along the shores of Lake Travis. It is called The Tower House by Andersson-Wise Architects. It has just the right touches to stand out from its limestone neighbors while managing to blend in to the forest. Built with the goal of adding additional living space to one of the aforementioned cabins, this separate structure is comprised of three floors, with a bedroom on each of the bottom floors, and a terrace on the top floor. Its wooden exterior contrasts nicely with the surrounding rock, and begs visitors to climb for a better view of the water beyond.
Jessica Sjöstedt‘s champagne bottle packaging concept for Devout Champagne catches the eyes and has a great geometrical style. The unusually-shaped packaging has a drawstring at the top and comes apart in the middle. With its pleasing polygonal pattern and pastel tones, it’s certainly not like other Champagne boxes that I have seen on the market. What do you think of this concept packaging?
