Antelope

The Antelope eBike Charger is an autonomous electric bicycle charging station meant for cities, hospitality, and bicycle sharing services. The main feature is the operable photovoltaic umbrella that opens to charge during the day and closes at the night. The use of photovoltaics and simple design makes it suitable for resorts in the countryside and more remote natural locations.  There is a structural skin of high strength composites, with charging indicator lights and a touch screen for the connected bike and the charger itself so it’s clear which charger to use or when a bike is fully charged. Antelope is ready for further engineering and prototyping.  Antelope is as comfortable in an urban setting on a small square or street side as it is along a bicycle highway.
