Conrad is a catalog-based mail order company for electronics, tools and so on. From the final image of the video, I think this is a commercial for the Conrad company, showing the cool things you can build with their parts and so on.

I don't think Conrad is developing this bike lock as an actual product.

"Entstanden im Rahmen unserer Aktion „3 Teams, 14 Tage, 150.000 Möglichkeiten" und entwickelt von Team A aus Hamburg." --- It was a contest - roughly translated 3 teams, 14 days 150.000 posibilities. The lock has been developed by Team A from Hamburg.

I can confirm that the part of the video starting at 1:20 is actually airing as advertising on German TV.

It's nice to see that this is a real device and not just CGI.

Conrad also has a few brick-and-mortar stores. They are like toy-stores for grown-ups (and not-so-grown-ups).
