BICYCLELIGHT
自転車と車による事故やサイクリストのマナーは日本だけではなく海外でも課題になっております。
6メートル先まで光とマークを描写しますので歩行者や自動車への認識度も上がり事故・マナーの改善にもなりそうですね。これはサイクリストのみなさんには必須商品です。
A unique design by Kelly Brooke, Blaze is a bike light that aims to make street cycling a safer ordeal. As well as providing a remarkably bright headlight for the bike, the device also projects a green bicycle symbol approximately 6m in front of the cyclist to warn surrounding vehicles and pedestrians.
Currently, the biggest dangers that cyclists face on London’s streets are being in the blindspot of HGVs at left-turns, and not being perceived by cars at T-junctions. Projecting a bicycle symbol on the road 6m in front of the bike gives motorists forewarning of the oncoming cyclist, although ultimately the effectiveness of the safety measure does still depend on the driver’s attentiveness.
