Basketball-sharing
A company in Jiaxing, East China's Zhejiang province, recently launched a basketball-sharing service.
The company has introduced several pilot lockers with basketballs at the city's public and campus courts. Users can borrow and return a basketball through the company's WeChat account after paying a 29-yuan ($4.2) deposit. One basketball costs 1.5 yuan for half an hour.
The lockers are equipped with a camera to ensure the process runs smoothly. According to the company, the lockers can also be used to store personal items.
