Kasut bermotor diperkenalkan
Seorang model mencuba kasut bermotor (gambar kecil) yang bakal dijual di pasaran dunia pada
Februari 2012. - AGENSI
CALIFORNIA 25 Dis. - Sepasang kasut bermotor yang mampu membawa pemiliknya sejauh tiga hingga lima kilometer akan mula dijual pada Februari ini dan dijangka menjadi produk yang popular.
Alat berkuasa bateri yang dijual pada harga AS$647 (RM2,041) itu sebenarnya dicipta untuk dipasang pada kasut dan dikendalikan melalui alat kawalan jauh tanpa wayar.
Kasut bermotor dikenali sebagai spnKiX itu boleh mencapai kelajuan 16 kilometer sejam dan kelajuannya dikawal melalui alat kawalan jauh.
Pembelian spnKiX akan turut disertakan dengan roda latihan yang boleh ditanggalkan untuk memudahkan orang ramai menggunakannya.
Perekanya, Peter Treadway mencipta alat itu sejak lima tahun lalu selepas sukar untuk mencari tempat meletak kenderaan.
Sejak itu beliau telah mencipta 30 prototaip kasut beroda tersebut dan beliau akan mula menjualnya melalui laman webnya Februari ini.
SpnKiX diperbuat daripada nilon yang diperkuatkan dan aluminium, manakala baterinya hanya perlu dicas selama dua hingga tiga jam untuk mencapai tahap isian penuh. - AGENSI
