Brakepack – a backpack with turn signals that makes the cyclist safer in the dark

Brakepack backpack

Many cities around the world are becoming more and more bike-friendly, and a clear increase in cyclists is a reflection of this. This phenomenon has also been recorded in our country for the last decade. But despite the fact that cyclists are well taken care of in many places, we still find ourselves in situations where we are an extremely weak link in traffic. This is especially evident at night. But with the Brakepack Bluetooth backpack, you will no longer have to fear driving at night or driving in poor visibility, as it has built-in turn signals and brake lights.

Backpack Brakepack tries to improve communication between cyclists and other road users, namely with integrated turn signals and brake lights. In many cities, there is an increase in cyclists, which the city authorities are encouraging. Unfortunately, this also means that the number of traffic accidents involving cyclists is also increasing. A lot of these happen right at night and in poor visibility.

Reflectors, lights and other shiny objects are one way to make yourself visible in such situations, but they are not an ideal solution. Brakepack is. It has built-in ones RGB LED lights, and the signaling system is connected to the corresponding one mobile application. This allows the cyclist to communicate where to turn and when to brake without gesticulating (which is a bob against the wall at night), in a similar way to what we are used to in traffic "communication". In addition, he clearly works for you throughout super vision.

The backpack connects to the smartphone via Bluetooth low-power technology that enables accurate signaling and the possibility for the cyclist to focus only on the road (he follows the planned route or the final destination that you entered on the phone and behaves according to it). There is also a solution for those who do not yet have a smartphone. All of you can manage the signaling via the controls on the shoulder straps. Charge it on wall charging station, where he will diligently wait for you.
