Company My start-up makes intelligent, robotic luggage.

3

History Luka has spent the last decade of her professional life travelling. She was constantly switching «wheels» - train, taxi, airplane, subway. Actually, she could describe an airport faster than her own appartment. Needless to say, that her suitcase was her best friend and tavel companion. Constantly slaloming among the other passengers, her luggage got almost always «in the way» or was getting stuck, nearly snatching her arm off. Fed up with all this struggle, while sighing an exhausted «I wish my bag would just come along by itself» she came up with the idea of a smart luggage, that would be autonomous, following her like a puppy. Just like a robotic vacuum cleaner.

The robotic bag was born.

Your Reliable Companion Because we belive you should have better to do than worry about your luggage, we created the perfect companion for your journeys. The smart luggage that follows you everywhere, alerts you on your smartphone in case it gets jammed and even lets you know where it is, when your airline doesn’t.

Just relax and enjoy the trip!

Modular system The Mark or Icon, has a multiple role.

It was conceived to look like an eye (of a robot). It can be animated on digital platforms to blink, bounce or roll in on the screen, stretching the idea of autonomous movement, and also playfulness.
