Alvix
Alvix is a multifunctional drone designed for people who practice extreme sports alone. The cylinder-shaped body is transformable and holds two axes that extend and store the propellers. The propellers are pulled out for flight and pushed in for compact carrying in a pack, while the closed body protects the machinery from impact. Alvix connects to a smartwatch and a smartphone, tracks the user automatically and accepts basic commands. A safety system makes the drone ring and shine when danger is detected, so rescue can be faster.
Alvix Multifunctional Drone by Yu-Ling Lien was highlighted as a grand representation of industrial design by the A' Design Award & Competition.

The A' Sporting Goods, Fitness and Recreation Equipment Design Award is a highly prestigious, international, juried design accolade that celebrates exceptional design of basketballs, tennis rackets, yoga mats, running shoes, dumbbells, bicycles, boxing gloves, swim goggles and more.
