Abstract

As electronic bikes continue to increase in popularity, cycling has become a means of daily travel for more and more people. However, as the price and quantity of these consumer bicycles increase in public areas, so does the probability of their theft. Newer bikes, especially those with onboard electronics, are a priority target for thieves.

Lock and Roll, therefore, is an advanced smart bike wheel lock that aims to address the growing demands for increased bike security. By providing a variety of security features, such as GPS positioning, a gyroscopic alarm system, and remote monitoring, Lock and Roll represents a new age of electronic bike security alternatives. Our lock mounts directly to the frame of the cycle, immobilizing the front or rear wheel while locked. By incorporating NFC and SMS technology, we allow users to have convenient, keyless locking.
