Chainless (Kardan) Bicyle
Economy (wiki) | Technology Transfer (wiki) - urs @ 23:37:38

It was love at first sight, when I discovered a Biomega Copenhagen [1] chainless bicycle at the Velokurier-Laden [2] about two years ago. But one cannot always buy what he likes ;) Anyway, the other day I started to look around what the chainless bicycle market currently looks like [3].

There are some Shops that provide one or more models suited with the kardan-transmission. The transmission is mostly produced by Taiwan Sussex chainless transmission bicycle manufacturer, although I could not figure out a price for the transmission.

What really astonished me is the fact, that there is a Chinese company called Shanghai Zhimei Rolleu-Chainless Bicycle Co.,Ltd which has a full set of bicycles with chainless transmission but not even one European dealer listed on their website [4]. So, if I was a bicycle dealer in Switzerland, I would at least try some of their models. Let me know if You start importing them ;)

RFID course - Technologies and Applications
Wireless and Mobile (wiki) | Technology Transfer (wiki) - urs @ 20:37:11

Thierry Roz, Product & Business Development Manager of the Business Unit RFID of EM-Microelectronic Marin sent me the outline of a that course on "Identification Sans Contact: Techniques et Applications «low-cost»" [1]. Together with Dr. Ngoc Chau Bui, my tutor at the Technical University of Biel, he is talking about RFID markets, technologies, products and what the future might bring. I can really recommend the course. No, I have no provision ;)

Mr. Bui is Director of MicroCID SA, which offers products such as COMPACT FLASH or PCMCIA RFID Readers [2].
