Samsung came up with a scooter for remote workers

The concept of a strange gadget (or vehicle?) was developed in Korea. This is a scooter with a built-in folding table for work. The invention was called WORKNIC – from the English words Work and Picnic. It works like this: you arrive at the park on a scooter, unfold it and get a small chair with a small armchair. That's it, you can work on a picnic. The device was equipped with two sockets, lights, and a screen on the steering wheel.

The device will look like this:

On the downside: this is just a concept for now. Yes, with renderings and a prototype, but there are no guarantees that the product will be brought to market yet. You can watch the video in the media.
