The Gravity Ruler Luggage Scale looks like such a simple idea that can possibly end up saving frequent fliers some money on overweight bags at airport check-ins. The idea, developed by design students Marcella Maltese and Lin Wei, consists of bungee cord strung through a clear plastic tube that has been labeled with weight measurements.

Now, Samsonite and Micro Mobility have teamed up to create what might be the next big thing in travel fashion — the Trolley Scooter.
