Method and apparatus to reduce the probability of vehicle collision
10899408 · 2021-01-26 · ·

The present invention relates to a method and apparatus employing techniques of computer vision and deep neural networks to provide audible and visual warning indications to vehicle drivers and bicycle riders to reduce the probability of a collision between the vehicle and the bicycle to which it is mounted, particularly in the case of distracted driving. The present invention amounts to an additional set of eyes that is ever-alert and dedicated to watching for impending collisions from behind or from directions not in the operator's primary field of view. When such a potential collision is detected, the present invention provides audible and visual alerts to gain the attention of drivers and riders to reduce the possibility of collision.

10892628 · 2021-01-12 · ·

A bicycle controller and a bicycle control system are provided that effectively supply power from one battery to a plurality of bicycle components. The bicycle controller includes an electronic control unit that controls power consumed by a plurality of bicycle components. The power is supplied from a common battery. The bicycle components include at least a first component and a second component. In a case where a charge amount of the battery is a first level, the electronic control unit reduces the power of the battery consumed by the first component. In a case where the charge amount of the battery is a second level that is lower than the first level, the electronic control unit reduces the power of the battery consumed by the second component.
