About Alvix Multifunktionell drönare

Alvix är en multifunktionell drönare designad för personer som utövar extremsporter på egen hand. Den cylinderformade kroppen är omvandlingsbar och rymmer två axlar som fäller ut och drar in propellrarna. Propellrarna dras ut för flygning och skjuts in för kompakt förvaring i en ryggsäck, medan den slutna kroppen skyddar mekaniken mot stötar. Alvix ansluter till en smartklocka och en smartphone, spårar användaren automatiskt och accepterar grundläggande kommandon. Ett säkerhetssystem får drönaren att ringa och lysa när fara upptäcks, så att räddning kan ske snabbare.

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
ALVIX features a cylinder-shaped and equipped with two axes for extending and storing the propellers. Users can pull the propellers in and out by the axes when using or storing and carry it in packs easily.
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.
