When it is being pulled along the ground, rather than lifted up completely, the Live Luggage Sports Bag, which is designed and manufactured in the UK, has a number of "anti-gravity" features.
These include a specially designed handle to position 85 per cent of the case's weight over the wheels, reducing the strain on the carrier.
But the sensors in the special powered-wheel version of the case could be a particularly novel addition in many people's opinions.
They allow "pan-cake motors" to switch on in the wheels themselves, powering the case up hills with less demand on the owner.
A total of three separate components complete the case kit, including a rucksack, a large soft case and a weekend bag, which fasten together on the powered trolley.
