Cowboy, the connected power-assisted bike, design and super light

-

The Belgian start-up Cowboy announces an electric-assisted bike offering around 50 kilometers of autonomy and weighing only 16 kg.

Cowboy, a young Belgian start-up, is marketing an electric-assisted bicycle which, on paper, looks rather interesting for several reasons. The design of the Cowboy (this is also the name of this bike) is one of them. Although it is an electric bike, the battery carefully integrated under the saddle is confused with the lines of this bike.

Classic, it is removable to recharge when it is impossible to store the bike near a socket. Side autonomy, the manufacturer announces about 50 km and a charging time of 2:30. Modest endurance for this light battery (1.7 kg) which, on the other hand, benefits enormously from the weight of this bike since it weighs only 16 kg with the battery.


Another interesting point, always on the side of design, the fact that the lights at the front and back are completely integrated into the frame. Not only does it avoid adding accessories not always very aesthetic, but, above all, it also means that these lights are powered by the bike battery, rather than batteries that will need to be replaced. Better still, the rear light also acts as a brake light when the user presses the brakes.


On the other hand, on the comfort side, the start-up is not in the flourish. The Cowboy does not have any suspension or even mudguards. Good point on the other hand for safety with the presence of disc brakes.
Last design detail, traction is provided by a belt transmission (not chain) connected to the engine integrated to the rear wheel.


A bike connected to your smartphone

The Cowboy does not integrate any counter. The manufacturer makes the choice to connect his bike to your smartphone with Bluetooth. Installed on a support provided for this purpose on the handlebars (no information is given on it), a mobile application can turn on or off the bike (a security against theft), to know the remaining autonomy in the battery, to consult the number of kilometers traveled, the speed or the history of its displacements.
A dashboard in sum that should be enriched with GPS tracking function of the bike thereafter, according to Cowboy. The start-up even indicates that it could, in the future, connect to the bike to perform a remote diagnosis.


The Cowboy is announced at 1790 euros which, if the quality of manufacture is up and given its connected features, seems to be an attractive price. The bike is available for pre-order on the Cowboy site for deliveries starting at the end of May.

We tested the Nuraphone, the headset that fits your hearing

-
Image
The Nuraphone is an innovative model both for its sound customization system and the design of its headphones. Is it enough to make a difference? How to offer the best possible sound for headphones? The Australian company Nura have tackled this thorny problem and have designed a revolutionary model: the Nuraphone, sold about 400 euros. This helmet is distinguished by its design that combines the circum-auricular and the intra-auricular. The inside of the earpiece has a tip that is placed at the entrance of the ear canal to transmit the sound more directly than with conventional supra or circumauricular models. According to the manufacturer, the tip penetrates less into the duct than the in-ear headphones, which explains the unique size. We would have liked the choice between several sizes and people who do not like the headphones may not like this model either. Another potential problem often related to ear-phones, the restitution of the bass. To avoid this problem, Nura ...

They turned Amazon Echo into an audio snitch

-
Image
Hackers have managed to create, in the smart enclosure, a seemingly innocuous application that continuously records conversations. With a microphone, smart speakers sometimes cause discomfort in some users who wonder if they do not record their words constantly. Checkmarx's hackers have just given some grit to this conspiracy theory as part of Amazon Echo. They developed a calculator in the form of a "skill", that is to say a voice application that extends the functionality of Amazon Echo. Just say "start calculator" to access and make calculations. Until then nothing abnormal. The problem is that the application continues to record the words of the user even if they are unrelated to the application. The speeches are then transformed into text and sent to the developer of the skill. To achieve this, hackers used a flaw in Amazon Echo's programming interface settings. Normally, a skill is supposed to turn off automatically after a certain time, when...

Dolby Digital, Atmos or DTS ... what do these audio technologies hide?

-

With the multiplication of audio formats, not easy to navigate to make the right choice. 01net.com explains the main ones to make sure you do not go wrong. Be immersed in a match and live the same atmosphere as the stadium? This is certainly what every football lover dreams about in front of his television. If the image participates more and more, including the broadcast of some matches in 4K, the audio is still the poor relation of sports retransmissions. However, we do not buy a TV only to watch football (well, normally). It is therefore good to know what the different formats used for cinema sound mean. Not always easy to cope with the acronyms and logos displayed on the data sheets of the devices or on the pockets of DVDs and Blu-ray discs. These are the latter that will usually give you the most systematic access to multichannel audio formats, with several voices in the front, rear and a subwoofer. Netflix also offers some compatible content, both movies and series. Two...
