The Bag2Go suitcases, which will go on sale worldwide before the end of the year, are among several products being demonstrated at Deutsche Telekom’s stand. Aircraft manufacturer Airbus also helped with the development.Via a smartphone app, the owner can check the location of their suitcase at any time, regardless of where in the world it happens to be (except when it’s on a plane).
