Bicycle that converts kinetic energy into electric energy



Bluetooth-enabled bicycle wheel has been successfully invented by the researchers of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). This cycle has the advantage as it has the sensors installed in it, which keeps a kind of GPS system with the other friends of yours. The wheel has got a technology which can convert utilize/store the kinetic energy of the rolling motion of the wheels. Since this is the latest inventions in terms to transport, people are getting shifted to bicycle and leaving their smoky cars behind. It is major activity in Paris and Barcelona.
When the rider applies the breaks the whole of the kinetic motion is being converted into the electric energy by the motors installed in it. This converted energy is being stored in the batteries installed within. The wheel of the cycle is just the same as it is of the common cycle. The difference lies in its Nano-technology and all the necessary components are installed in it which performs the entire task. Further, this electric energy can be used anywhere.
