Before the Internet of Things arrived bike lights had just one job to do, but now it seems that multi-tasking is mandatory. The Fast bike light is looking to meet this brief by incorporating accident alerts and anti-theft functionality, along with some nifty optical effects.
The Fast looks pretty much like your standard bike tail light, but it’s equipped with 8 RGB LEDs, Bluetooth Low Energy connectivity and ambient light and motion sensors. Working in conjunction with an iOS/Android app, the motion monitoring system employs an algorithm to detect when you’ve taken a tumble and sends an alert an emergency contact via smartphone.
