It was a sharing system between members in a community, changing user who need to use it for free, by the wireless device mounted on a cycle. If you want to carry freecyle from  the lastest user locking it and get the confirmation unlocking the cycle. While another people having the request you will receive the information and deal with it like the prior people having done.

Samsung Freecycle by Cristiano Giuggioli, Stefano Marchetto, Alessandro Brunello & Massimo Brugnera

Freecycle is a good solution for Universities and limited are campuses, where the community is small and the commute restricted.

Freecyle system works like this:

In this system you got a base unit mounted on a cycle, a device that you carry with you and a generator; all hooked to each other wirelessly. A bike sharing service is implemented and the twist is that users themselves got to manage the effective working of it.
