The vigorous promotion of green commuting,coupled with the increasing problems in urban public transportation,has led to a growing population choosing shared bicycles for travel.However,for shared bicycles,the demand for trips ranging from 1 to 3 kilometers is relatively limited.
The development of electric bikes for rental and sharing projects
With the introduction of the"one helmet,one electric bike"policy for electric bikes and some cities explicitly stating their reluctance to develop shared electric bikes,the entire shared electric bike industry is not going very well.Second,third,and fourth-tier cities have become the main force in the shared electric bike market.According to data from 2023,users in first-tier cities account for only 1.8%,second-tier cities occupy 27.4%,third-tier cities hold 36.2%,and users from fourth-tier cities and rural areas constitute approximately 34.6%.
Smart bike lock and electric bike APP for shared mobility
OMNI IoT has carefully observed that in cities where both shared bicycles and shared electric bikes coexist,in 2024,the majority of citizens will prefer riding shared electric bikes.Therefore,the smart bike lock will be a powerful assistant in the mobility business,as it provides security protection,and the user can easily scan the code to start and end their ride,making the entire process intelligent.Additionally,the electric bike app serves as a robust tool,allowing users to check ride trajectories,duration,costs,vehicle battery levels,and all other necessary parameters through data interaction technology.
As electric bikes are introduced,similar challenges to those faced by shared bicycles regarding parking issues persist.Is it enough to assume that parking within a designated area solves the problem?The phenomenon of haphazard parking continues.
Parking beacon for electric bikes
Research data reveals that parking control remains a significant pain point in current shared electric bike services.Implementing a fixed-point parking solution is a unique approach we offer to the mobility industry,effectively addressing the issue of disorganized parking.Using parking beacons and RFID sensing,users who park randomly will be unable to return the bike at any time,concluding their ride.
With the deployment capacity keeping pace,our later-stage operations should focus on real-time tracking,emphasizing the core aspect of vehicle parking.Leveraging IoT technology,we aim to address the issue of disorderly parking for both shared bicycles and electric bikes in urban areas.Guiding citizens to park vehicles correctly ensures uniformity and consistency in parking.
Only when operators and urban management departments collaborate to solve fundamental issues can a win-win situation be achieved,fostering the flourishing development of the shared industry and truly promoting green practices.
