You wanted the best. You've got the best podcast, the hottest podcast in the world.

The CEOs, authors, thought leaders, visionaries, and motivators.
Get ready. Get ready. Strap yourself in. Keep your hands, arms, and legs
inside the vehicle at all times because you're about to go on a monster education roller coaster
with your brain. Now, here's your host, Chris Voss. Hi, folks. It's Voss here from thechrisvossshow.com.
Hey, we're at booth number 61049 at CES 2023 in Eureka Park. Come down and see these folks.
Rolkers, we're going to be talking with them about their product and what goes into it.
Thomas, how are you?
Yeah, I'm fine.
Thank you, Chris.
There you go.
And tell us, Thomas, what you do.
So I would like to present to you Rolkers, this undershoot device, an electric device
which helps you to double your working speed.
So Rolkers, as I said, it's an electric
device. Here there are some batteries, a motor, and when you walk, they double your working
speed.
Wow. What's the dot com for this?
They are made for the last mile mobility first.
Okay.
Logistics too.
Okay. Logistics too. Okay. Just real applications.
We can so imagine using them for health field or gaming.
Okay.
Yes.
What's your.com or your website for these?
My website is www.workers.com.
There you go.
And so who's the application for that will usually be wanting to use these?
Why they use them?
Imagine, if you live in Paris, you have to take the bus, the metro, to go from home to the office.
Each time you have to work a little bit, but not so much.
And you have to go, you want to go faster.
And with walkers, each time you have to walk, you double your trip, you divide your trip by two.
So we think it's really smart.
Nice.
So just about anybody can wear these then. So I could
it's not for any special medical purposes
of people that might be having issues?
They are more for normal people
I would say. Okay.
And so does it kind of feel like
you're skating with the rollers and stuff?
Absolutely not. That's the really
major difference with
other devices. With walkers
you have to walk. Why? Because inside
walkers you have a lot of sensors which detect your walking speed and I say walking. If you
no walk, they multiply by zero your speed so you no go.
Wow, so you just kind of move along slowly. How much
weight will they take? They are
around 2 kilograms.
And the most advantage
is they are auto-adapted.
I would like
to explain.
As I said, there are a lot of
sensors and algorithms
they detect your walking speed.
If you walk slow, they go slow. If you go fast, they go fast. If you want to stop, you just decelerate and
you stop and they stop. There are no remote control. That's the main advantage.
That is awesome. So you can walk two times faster, seamlessly in your modality, walk more natural, you can carry them if you need to, no treaty needed.
And I guess it's slow enough where it's not like skates where it's going to come out from under me and crash me and stuff.
So when did you guys get the idea for this?
Do you know travelator to the airport, this conveyor? Yeah. It was not me, but the
inventor has seen this conveyor and asked him how to modify the infrastructure into
a device. And when you use Volkers, it's the same feeling, exactly the same feeling
than when you use a convoyer.
Nice.
And so how fast will these go, and how long does the battery last?
They can go to, at maximum, 7 miles per hour.
Wow, 7 miles per hour.
And it's during half an hour, around half an hour.
So you can make something like 3.5 miles.
Nice.
Well, that's pretty crazy.
Are they fairly heavy?
How much do they usually weigh?
About, what would you say?
What do those weigh, would you say?
20 pounds?
I don't know how to translate into kilograms.
That's true.
We got the kilograms to the thing.
So you guys are a French-based company.
Who are you trying to talk to here at the show?
Who's your clients that you're looking for?
First, we would like to make some marketing to say people we exist.
And second, we are in the licensing strategy.
So we would like to meet people who can buy the concept and go help the company.
Nice, nice.
Well, this has been pretty insightful, Thomas.
Give us your.com again so we can find you on the interwebs.
www.workers.com
There you go.
Check it out, guys.
Booth number 61049 at CS Eureka Park.
You find them kind of near the French Tech.
And Tom, Chris, I'll see you.
Thank you.
Thank you so much, Chris.
