Researchers claim to have developed the ‘world’s first smart bag’ that can charge your electronic devices like mobiles and laptops besides storing them.
A Kickstarter project is helping to raise funds for the bag called ‘Phorce’, website Mashable reported.
The bag has a waterproof shell and specially designed pockets to safely hold all the big tablets on the market.
Additionally, the bag changes shape — it can be morphed between a backpack, a shoulder bag and a suitcase.
The bag pairs directly with your smart-phone via Bluetooth.
Using that connection, one can monitor how much reserved power you’re packing.
The pairing can also work as a pseudo-tracking device, the report said.
For instance, if you accidentally forget your bag under a table at a coffee shop, for example, your phone will remind you before you wander too far away.
