Everyone loves being on vacation, but few (if any) can honestly say they like the experience of simply getting there.

Thankfully, it's a lot easier to travel today than it was just a few years prior. Having the right travel gadgets on hand can really improve any trip, both when you're en route and arrive somewhere unfamiliar.

Scroll down for our selection of innovative, high-tech products that can make your next travel experience more bearable.

Let's start where everyone begins when prepping for a trip: Packing. If you're looking for a good suitcase, it's worth trying the COWAROBOT.

The COWAROBOT is the very first suitcase that can automatically follow you around. You can keep your hands free to handle your ticket and passport while the suitcase rolls beside you at 4.5 miles per hour. You can even charge your devices using the bag's USB ports.

The suitcase can keep up with you on a single charge for 12.5 miles, and it can handle slopes with up to a 15 degree incline or decline. It comes with a bracelet that can be used to lock and unlock the bag, as well as to summon it from distances up to 164 feet away. You can also see where the bag is via a corresponding app.

And don't worry, it can fit in a plane's overhead compartment. You can order it off Indiegogo for a November arrival.



If you want to get really crazy with your luggage selection, you can also try out the first rideable suitcase.

That's right, you can actually ride the Modobag. It can travel 8 miles per hour and can roll on for eight miles on a single charge. It also comes with a separate laptop compartment and USB ports for charging your devices.

It may seem a bit silly to ride your suitcase, but it actually looks handy if you're nursing an injury or, you know, just want to have a little fun in the airport. You can order it on Indiegogo for a January 2017 delivery.



Once you finish packing your suitcase, it's a good idea to check its weight so you're not scrambling last minute at the airport. The ProInt luggage scale is a good option for a weight read in advance.

Simply hang your bag on the hook and see its weight in both kilograms and pounds. It's really that simple. And the best part is it's small so you can take it with you for another weight read when you're returning home.

You can buy it on Amazon for $14.
