Tokyo, Japan – Sony revealed today it is building smart skateboards. This new project aims to blend advanced technology with skateboarding. The goal is improving the riding experience for everyone.

Sony engineers designed these boards. Special sensors sit inside the board. These sensors track movement constantly. They watch speed, tilt, and balance. The board understands what the rider is doing.

A key feature is the built-in learning system. The board uses artificial intelligence. It learns the rider’s style over time. It then gives helpful feedback. This feedback comes through a small speaker or a phone app. It helps riders learn tricks better. It also helps them avoid falls.

Safety is a major focus. The board can sense dangerous wobbles. It alerts the rider instantly. This gives them time to react. Sony hopes this reduces accidents. Especially for beginners learning the basics.

The board connects to a smartphone app. Riders see their stats on the app. They see speed records and trick progress. The app maps skate sessions too. Riders can share their achievements online. Sony plans social features for the app later.

The company will announce pricing later. Boards should be available within the next year. They will target both new skaters and experienced riders. Sony believes this tech will change skateboarding.
