Smart lighting system and method
A smart lighting system for a vehicle is described. The smart lighting system includes at least one signal generator, and a lighting stem assembly. The lighting stem assembly further includes a signal receiver; a light control PCB module, and at least one light source. The at least one light source may be a rotatable lighting source, and the left indicator light and the right indictor light. Upon receiving signal by the signal receiver from a signal generator, the light control PCB module controls the operation of the rotatable lighting source, and the left indicator light and the right indictor light. The signal generator may generate the signal based on detection of gesture by a motion sensor mounted on a helmet of a rider.
ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELECTRONIC DEVICE
An electronic device controls at least one bicycle component in correspondence with operation of an operation device. The electronic device includes a receiver, a memory, a first wireless transmitter, a memory and an electronic controller. The receiver receives operation information corresponding to the operation of the operation device. The memory stores an actuation command of the bicycle component in correspondence with the operation information. The electronic controller receives the operation information and transmits the actuation command corresponding to the received operation information from the first wireless transmitter. The memory is configured to allow the actuation command stored in correspondence with the operation information to be changed.
Riding helmet with automatic brake detection and steering indication functions
The utility model relates to a riding helmet with automatic brake detection and steering indication functions, which consists of the helmet body and the left steering lamp and right steering lamp installed on its front and rear sides, wherein, the two lamps are electrically connected with the control module, the control module is designed with a wireless receiving module that is linked up with the wireless receiving module mounted on the bicycle, the wireless remote control module is also electrically connected with brake detection device and manual control device, and the steering lamps can work according to the signals of the brake detection device and manual control device.
Information collection system, communication device, and information generation method
An information collection system includes a first communication device provided at a first vehicle including a processor configured to execute a process. The process includes receiving operations by a first input section, and wirelessly transmitting, by a first transmission section, specific information according to the operation received by the first input section. The information collection system further includes a second communication device provided at a second vehicle including a processor configured to execute a process. The process includes receiving, by a first reception section, the specific information transmitted by the first transmission section, and wirelessly transmitting, to a device that is different from the first communication device by a second transmission section, position information enabling identification of a position at which the specific information was received by the first reception section.
SYSTEMS, METHODS AND TECHNIQUES FOR INTELLIGENT ACCESSORIES
Systems, methods and techniques for vehicle accessories leveraging sensor(s) of a portable electronic device. The method of leveraging sensor(s) of a portable electronic device to enhance capabilities of an accessory comprising sensing parameters of a vehicle or its surrounding environment by one or more sensor(s) of the portable electronic device, determining a change in condition of the vehicle or its surrounding environment, generating a command or signal depending on the detected condition change, transmitting the generated command or signal to the accessory, and controlling the accessory to change its behavior or perform a predetermined process in accordance with the received signal or command.
SIGNALLING DEVICE FOR BICYCLES
A signalling device for bicycles comprising a lighting unit connectable to a support on the vehicle, which includes signalling lights, brake lights and turn signals, and for delimiting a reference safety distance for other vehicles; formed by a central body, which includes the electronics and signalling systems enclosed therein and isolated from the weather, and two horizontal arms, diametrically opposed, arranged so that at least one of them is foldable on the previous one and both are shaped to internally transmit the light from two LEDs that provide the turn signal to the bicycle to the ends, which are separated from each other by at least 18 cm.
SYNCHRONIZED SAFETY LIGHTING
Under poor lighting conditions, it is difficult to distinguish whether multiple lights are attached to the same object or multiple objects, particularly when they are flashing. In some circumstances, lights flashing at different frequencies and/or with different periods may be presumed by other road users to be associated with different objects, thereby diminishing the value of multiple individual lights on a bicycle. Synchronized safety lighting enables a cyclist to synchronize multiple individual lights so that they may flash in unison with the same repeating pattern. This provides a stronger visual impression of a cyclist and their bicycle to other road users by visually tying the cyclist's lights together.

Backpack for motorcyclists
A backpack for motorcyclists provides a rigid outer shell with an electrical system wherein an onboard battery powers rear signal lights, each comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs), which are linked with the motorcycle's electrical system to function as brake lights and turn signals. The electrical system also charges a cellular telephone or other portable device via a Universal Service Bus (USB) port, and may be recharged by one or more solar panels mounted to the exterior of the backpack. A cellular telephone, music player, or similar device may also be connected via the USB port to play digital music files via speakers provided by the backpack, and a headphone socket is also provided. An onboard mapping device or homing beacon, enabled by the Global Positioning System (GPS), may be optionally provided.
FIRST ELECTRIC DEVICE, SECOND ELECTRIC DEVICE, AND CONTROL SYSTEM OF HUMAN-POWERED VEHICLE
A first electric device comprises a first wireless communicator, an electric actuator, and a first electronic controller. The first electronic controller is configured to control the electric actuator to generate the actuation force based on a user input received by the second electric device in a connection state where the first wireless communicator is paired with the second wireless communicator and where the first wireless communicator is wirelessly connected to the second wireless communicator. The first electronic controller is configured to control the first wireless communicator to reconnect to the second wireless communicator based on the user input received by the second electric device in a disconnection state where the first wireless communicator is paired with the second wireless communicator and where the first wireless communicator is wirelessly disconnected from the second wireless communicator.
