Project Overview

The Algonquin College e-Bike_ACV2 project aims to build a functional prototype e-bike with a location tracker and remote locking capability. The e-bike will be designed for use in the city of Ottawa, Canada, and will be equipped with GPS tracking technology to allow users to locate their bikes easily. The remote locking feature will allow users to lock and unlock their bikes using a mobile app, ensuring the safety and security of the bike. Our goal is to create a functional and reliable prototype that can be used in all seasons and all terrains.
