Caddy by Jacob Resneck
Wood & Wood Design, a consultancy firm in London, has hit upon the novel idea of combining a mobile suitcase with a walker. While the "Caddy" (as their product has come to be called) is designed as a mobility-aid, who wouldn't want a suitcase they could lean their weight on while careening across the O'Hare airport terminal in a frantic rush to make Gate 28 that's just made its last "final boarding call for passengers..."
The Caddy is still in its prototype phase while Wood & Wood seeks a development partner, but they were happy to give us this exclusive first look.
More pics after the jump.
