Tech Tuesdays: Use your smartphone with your bike and your ski poles
This week on News 1130 radio in Vancouver, I discussed these items:
- Neva – Evolution of the ski pole: New ski poles keep you informed as you hit the slopes by wirelessly connecting to your Android iOS device, giving you updates on weather conditions, elevation, temperature, incoming calls/SMSs, and has an open API to allow for even more data to be displayed on the pole’s OLED display.

- Audi e-bike Wörthersee: Another car manufacturer joins a growing list offering an ‘e-bike’ using a carbon fibre frame, motor assisted pedals get up to 50 mph and let you tune the bike using your smartphone. Still just a concept at this time. (source)
