About Alvix 多機能ドローン

Alvixは、単独でエクストリームスポーツを楽しむ人々のために設計された多機能ドローンです。円筒形のボディは変形可能で、プロペラを展開・収納する2本のシャフトを備えています。飛行時にはプロペラを引き出し、バッグに入れてコンパクトに携帯する際には押し込みます。閉じた状態のボディは、機構部を衝撃から保護します。Alvixはスマートウォッチやスマートフォンと接続し、ユーザーを自動的に追尾しながら基本的なコマンドを受け付けます。安全システムは危険を検知するとドローンが音を鳴らし発光するため、より迅速な救助につながります。

Research
Outdoor activity trend is growing in recent years. People engage in these activities to improve both physical and mental health, however, the trend has increased the rate of accident. Since accidents mainly happened in wildness, it not only takes longer time to take actions but also harder for rescue teams to locate where the injured is.
We analyzed people’s surroundings, behavior ability, activity process and so on, aiming at fixing the problems that they will face in different stages.
Inspiration
Outdoor activity trend is growing in recent years, however, the trend has increased the rate of accident. In the meantime, more and more sports players keen on recording their enjoyable sport time by technology advance.
Accordingly, we try to combine the two spheres above, outdoor activity and technology advance, and re-integrating the shape and function, focus on all aspect of user to not only make the sport safer but also create more excitement!
Project Duration
The concept was designed in June 2017 in Taiwan.
Operation Flow

Moreover, ALVIX is able to be connected to smartwatch and smartphone and track them automatically so that the user can give basic command to drone directly and activate the Safety System to make the drone ring and shine to improve rescue efficiency when emergency happened.
