Urtopia, a smart carbon-fiber mobility company founded by engineers from leading institutions, introduced its IoT Riding Ecosystem at CES 2026. The system synchronizes smart e-bikes, smart rings, and safety devices like the Urtopia Carbon Smart Helmet 1 into a single AI-powered platform. This integration allows real-time data from riding, health, and safety sensors to merge, creating a connected mobility experience that personalizes exercise, optimizes recovery, and improves safety.
The ecosystem centers on three interconnected devices: Urtopia Smart E-Bikes, which use AI to analyze cadence, torque, and effort; the Aivela Smart Ring Pro, which combines touch commands, air gestures, and health tracking; and the Urtopia Carbon Smart Helmet 1, featuring voice control, fall detection, and mesh intercom. By analyzing sensor inputs, the AI provides personalized recommendations and adapts in real time, forming a digital health profile that follows the rider throughout the day. According to CEO Dr. Owen Zhang, this approach represents a shift toward intelligent, connected, and health-aware mobility, as highlighted in the company's announcement at https://www.urtopia.com.
Alongside the ecosystem, Urtopia debuted several product breakthroughs. The Urtopia Quark DM 1.2 motor weighs less than 2.6 pounds and delivers up to 65 Nm of torque, featuring a self-developed high-precision torque sensor and dynamic magnetic encoder. Integrated into the Urtopia Titanium Zero e-bike, which uses a 3D-printed titanium alloy frame and advanced solid-state battery technology, it achieves a total weight of just 22 pounds. This lightweight design, compatible with SRAM 12-speed electronic shifting, sets a new benchmark for high-performance e-bikes. Details on these innovations are available at https://www.urtopia.com/products.
The Urtopia Carbon Helmet 1, built with aerospace-grade carbon fiber, includes multi-person mesh intercom, smart adaptive lighting, fall detection, and a built-in AI Coach without subscription fees. It is designed for both cycling and skiing, emphasizing safety and connectivity. These developments reflect Urtopia's mission, since its founding in 2021, to combine carbon-fiber engineering with IoT technologies for sustainable riding experiences. The ecosystem's focus on real-time data and AI-driven insights could influence broader trends in connected mobility, health integration, and lightweight design, potentially reshaping how consumers and industries approach electric transportation and digital wellness.
