BICYCLING CAN BE DANGEROUS
467k
injuries
>1000
deaths
$10B
medical costs & productivity losses
Detect obstacles React and brake before the bicyclist can
PROBLEM
THE SKETCH MODEL
Can low-cost sensors accurately detect
- bstacles in the way
- f a bicyclist?
TEST
LED On
LASER SENSOR RESULTS
━ Sensor 1 ━ Sensor 2
Detection occurs in sensor’s linear range
ANALOGOUS PRODUCTS
Emergency auto-braking for cars Anti-lock braking systems (ABS) for:
- Motorcycles
- Bikes
MARKET
People who use bicycles for: ! Primary mode of transportation ! Commuting ! Deliveries ! Exercise ! Leisure $6.2 billion domestic market
POTENTIAL NEXT STEPS
