Auto Loading Shopping Cart

Description

This one came out of a university challenge: “take something that exists and make it better.” So I looked at the humble shopping cart and thought, “what if it could help you unload groceries into your trunk without breaking your back?”

The result: a concept cart with a scissor lift and belt mechanism that raises and rolls your bags straight into the car. No heavy lifting, no awkward shuffling.

It’s still just a rough prototype, but the core idea is there. With more refinement, this could actually turn every grocery run into a smooth operation. For now, it’s a fun experiment in how a little bit of engineering can totally change a boring everyday task.
