Various systems and methods for providing alerts of preceding traffic are described herein. A system for providing alerts of preceding traffic comprising a processor installed on a trailing vehicle operated by a user, the processor to: receive image data from a camera and identify a preceding vehicle in front of the trailing vehicle; receive data from a distance sensor to detect a change in relative velocity between the preceding vehicle and the trailing vehicle that exceeds a threshold; and cause an augmented reality content to be displayed in a head-mounted display worn by the user, the augmented reality content to alert the user of the change in relative velocity.

An electronic apparatus to promote rider safety is provided. The electronic apparatus receives a trip plan associated with a user identifier. The trip plan includes a current travel route of a micro-mobility vehicle associated with a shared mobility service. The electronic apparatus determines incident information associated with a number of past traffic incidents on at least one portion of the current travel route. The electronic apparatus controls a display device to display an option to replace the current travel route with a safer alternate route. The electronic apparatus receives a user input that includes a selection of the displayed option. The electronic apparatus determines a discount applicable on an initial trip cost associated with the trip plan based on received user input and controls the display device to display, based on the determined discount, an incentive including a final trip cost associated the trip plan.

A scooter includes an elongated foot rest base extending from a first end to a second end; a first wheel secured to the first end of the foot rest base; a second wheel secured to the second end of the foot rest base; a pivot joint extend through a thickness of the foot rest base, the pivot joint being positioned between the first end and the second end; a locking mechanism secured to the foot rest base and configured to lock the joint in a fixed position; a backrest pivotally secured to the second end of the foot rest base; and a storage compartment rigidly secured to the backrest.

The present invention relates to a coupling-releasing device for airbag actuator cable 1 for vehicles having two or more wheels, said airbag being contained in a wearable jacket or coat. The coupling-releasing device of an airbag actuator cable 1 according to the present invention comprises at least one coupling unit 2,2′ adapted to be installed on board a vehicle and actuator means 4,4′,4″ operatively connected to said at least one coupling unit 2,2′ to operate said coupling unit 2,2′ between a first closing configuration adapted to retain said end of said airbag actuator cable and a second opening configuration adapted to release said end of said airbag actuator cable.

An object detection system for a saddle-type vehicle is provided. The system comprises an object detection unit configured to detect an object, wherein the object detection unit is provided on a handlebar which is rotatable to a body of the vehicle; an inclination detection unit configured to detect an inclination of a saddle-type vehicle; a steering angle detection unit configured to detect a steering angle of the handlebar to the body; and a position specification unit configure to specify a position of the object detected by the object detection unit, and correcting the position so that the inclination detected by the inclination detection unit is upright and the steering angle of the handlebar detected by the steering angle detection unit is directed straight.

An automatic control device for a motorcycle including a control device that automatically controls an automatic cruise control system and a brake system including a front wheel brake and a rear wheel brake includes a brake temperature detection unit that detects a brake temperature. The control device varies operation states of the front wheel brake and the rear wheel brake according to the brake temperature during automatic cruise control. At a time of deceleration in a case where the brake temperature during the automatic cruise control is low, the control device raises the brake temperature by reducing an engine brake of a power unit of a vehicle and increasing operation frequencies of the front wheel brake and the rear wheel brake.

The embodiments show an efficient, flexible, durable, lightweight and portable (12) electromechanical apparatus (12) that a cyclist can easily and safely operate. The design allows for the remote positioning of a visible elongated object, (12) safety sleeve/arm (12), from a secured vertical stowed position, to a secured horizontal active position without stopping during the ride. The elongated, aerodynamically shaped (12) safety sleeve (12) will have (12) LED strip lights (12) along the trailing edge, along with a (12) wing tip light (12) at the end of the member. Also included are reflective materials at both ends and on the leading edge of the (12) safety sleeve (12). The purpose of a (12) safety sleeve/arm (12) in the active horizontal position is to provide oncoming motorists with a dimensional frame of reference to clear the pedal vehicle when passing. Because of the size and shape of the lighted safety member, a motorist will receive the early detection needed, allowing them time to maneuver their vehicle around the cyclist. Thus, providing adequate clearance between the cyclist and motorist when passing, which will help them to comply with the 3 foot rule enacted in 33 states in the USA.

In a method for driving stabilization of a motorized two-wheeled vehicle, in which two gyroscopes situated side-by-side are present having axes of rotation in parallel to each other, the gyroscopes each being tiltable about a tilting axis perpendicular to the axis of rotation, and the tilting axes of the two gyroscopes also being parallel to each other, the gyroscopes rotating about their axes of rotation in directions of rotation opposite to each other, and in the case of a detected unstable driving behavior of the two-wheeled vehicle, the two rotating gyroscopes are tilted about their respective tilting axis at a first angular velocity, the tilting directions being counter to each other; and the two gyroscopes are subsequently tilted back again at a second angular velocity about their respective tilting axis into their original orientation.
