Hi! I’ll be participating in a hackathon next month in the hardware division. I was thinking of making something sollarpunk inspired. I’m posting this to ask for inspiration.
What is some of technology (esp. hardware) that you’d like to see implemented? What is a problem that you’d want solved that could have a potential hardware solution?
I know this is very vague, but I’m curious if anyone has some ideas to share :)
… isn’t this just an electric longboard? They have regen braking already most of the time
To give some ideas as well, maybe there could be some addons powered from the electric longboard, but I can’t really see how they could be useful. The main problem I see is that you’d need a wire coming from the longboard to the user / addon. this seems dangerous.
Maybe you can have the longboard battery be detachable, or have a smaller detachable batterry different from the main one that you could use for other tasks? (both being chardged either externally or through regenerative braking)
But tbh, I think such a project would overcomplicate and miss the point of the longboard.
