It's a pain to carry luggage when you're on a trip, such that you come to hate the experience instead of enjoying it. But do you really think that saving yourself the trouble of dragging a heavy suitcase around is worth $1,400? This suitcase invented by Clive Hemsley is equipped with what's called an "anti-gravity" system and motors on each wheel. And yes, it costs just that--$1,400. The handle has pressure sensors which relay to the engines how the case is being pulled; the torque provided by the engines then reduces the weight of the luggage immensely (30kg of baggage would feel like 3kg).

Moreover, the sensors are responsible for adjusting the movement of the system if, for example, you're climbing up a steep hill or walking faster. To be able to accomplish that, the "anti-gravity" system balances the load of the baggage on the wheels. The power-assisted suitcase is powered by a 12-volt battery and comes with a charger similar to those of cell phones. Each unit is also laser-etched with a serial number which makes it easier to return it to the owner or the manufacturers, Live Luggage, in case it gets lost (and someone actually tries to return it).
