A visual deceleration indicator signals to pedestrians and other vehicles that a vehicle is slowing down or coming to a stop. Illuminating devices, such as LEDs, contained in a license plate frame located in the front of the car or otherwise, are activated when the vehicle decelerates. An accelerometer or other sensory device detects deceleration and sends a signal to illuminate the LEDs, thereby letting others know the vehicle is slowing down. The license plate frame may be connected directly to a rear brake light component without the use of accelerometers or other sensors. When the brake is applied, the LEDs in the license plate frame are illuminated. The LEDs may be contained in other forms and located in different positions on the front or side of the car. The indicator might be one color to indicate braking and another color to indicate it is on, but not braking.

A communication system for a vehicle comprises a mechanism for sensing a motion status of a vehicle, a control device, plurality of data acquisition sensors, and one or more alerting device activation circuits. The communication system is customizable with the plurality of data acquisition sensors and one or more alerting device activation circuits based upon the needs of the vehicle. In some embodiments, the communication system is customized before it is installed within the vehicle. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the communication system is customizable after it is installed within the vehicle by turning on and/or turning off one or more of the data acquisition sensors and one or more alerting device activation circuits. The communication system is able to be implemented on a bus or other such fleet vehicles.

A variable accelerator light assembly. The variable accelerator light assembly includes a light bar having light elements spanning between a first end and an opposing second end. A sensor connected to a vehicle accelerator pedal of a vehicle detects how much a user depresses the vehicle accelerator pedal, and transmits this information to the light bar. The light elements energize sequentially from a middle portion outward to the opposing first and second end. The progressive actuation of the vehicle accelerator pedal causes an increasing number of the light elements to energize in the sequential configuration.

A dynamic brake light system for a vehicle having a brake pedal, a communication module, and a speedometer is disclosed herein. The present invention provides a dynamic brake light configured to illuminate in accordance with the deceleration velocity of the vehicle as registered via an accelerometer or how much pressure is applied to the brake system. The dynamic brake light includes an elongated brake light installed to a rear section of the motor vehicle configured to receive input from the brake system. The dynamic brake light system is installable on any make or model of vehicle, including commercial vehicles. The dynamic brake light provides for a safer alternative to standard brake lights, enabling other motorists to adjust their braking as needed to maintain a consistent speed.

A communication system for a vehicle comprises a mechanism for sensing a braking of the vehicle and a control device for sending a signal to a headlight activation circuit to modulate the vehicle's headlights based upon the braking of the vehicle. In particular, a headlight of the vehicle is able to be modulated based upon an application of one or both of a front brake and a rear brake. The headlight activation circuit is able to modulate the headlight between an on position and an off position or modulate the headlight between a high beam position and a low beam position. Consequently, the vehicle is better seen as it approaches likely congestion areas such as intersections and slowing or stopped traffic and attempts to enter traffic.

A communication system for a vehicle comprises a receiver to receive a signal corresponding to a traveling speed of a lead vehicle, a response device that generates an alert to warn of a change in the traveling speed of the lead vehicle, and a control device coupled to the receiver and the response device, wherein the receiver sends a signal to the control device corresponding to the traveling speed of the lead vehicle and the control device operates the response device in a manner dependent on the traveling speed of the lead vehicle. In some embodiments, the signal comprises one or more of infrared, radio frequency, wireless, WiFi, and Bluetooth. In some embodiments, the communication system further comprises a speed control system coupled to the control device, wherein the control device operates the speed control system in a manner dependent on the traveling speed of the lead vehicle.

The present invention relates to a smart brake warning system, wherein the system is installed on a vehicle body either directly or using a base. The system comprises at least a warning light device, which is used to emit different modes or degrees of light to serve as a warning for vehicles approaching from the rear, and at least one inertia detection device, which is used to detect the inertia of the vehicle at that instance, and control the warning light device to emit different degrees of light mode according to the size of the inertia force. Even if the vehicle driver does not step on the vehicle brake, the present invention is still able to produce a warning signal to vehicle drivers approaching from the rear, achieving a forced warning effect that prevents accidental rear-end collisions.
