In the era of these luxury smart suitcases, comfort and innovation meet style to ensure smoother joy of packing and travelling.

5. ForwardX Ovis Auto- Follow Suitcase
The Ovis suitcase is the pinnacle of convenience and luxury bags, crafted from Makrolon Polycarbonate, a material lighter than aluminium yet more durable than ABS plastic with a waterproof quality and glossy finish. It uses complex algorithms for an advanced obstacle avoidance system based on self-driving technology, enabling it to “see” and sense its environment and trail you. The bag also has an attachable smart band that vibrates to alert of low battery, technical issues and even of the bag being more than 2 metres away from the user.
