  • Great idea! Any plans to market it?

  • @momosan31

    ...nope. Blinking front or backlights are forbidden in our country. Simply said: Whatever improves safety is forbidden... until it becomes mandatory! There are examples enough for this statement!

  • You cant really say it react to the specific "blink" command, since you have only one.... :)

    Good idea.

  • Thank you.

    I must confess - it reacts to any command!

  • Any plans to get it to react to different commands?

    Any other AVR projects ongoing?

  • Yes, other AVR projects will follow.

    Yes it is hobby - and profession as well! I am about to retire. So there will be more time to "display" projects here!

    No, I do not plan to alter the helmet program at this time. Although I wanted it to react to spoken morse code(flash / up / down, or so). But it turned out to be more complicated than I thought. Maybe later.

  • Hate constantly blinking lights.It's so annoying when I ride my bicycle with NORMAL lights on and some stupid sh@t comes in my direction with these things.It's is bloody DISTRACTING! That's why it's forbidden.That's why cars don't blink like a Christmas tree.Not to mention that there is a tiny chance(but still there is a chance) there there is a photo-epileptic person and your blinking hits the right frequency.Than the sh@t will hit the fan.

    Voice-control is cool though.

  • Flashing lights are not illegal in the UK , copyright the design and sell it to cateye or smart, I would buy one, it's a great idea.

  • You should start selling those!

  • Awesome! 5/5 And I think you have a lot of free time... :-P lol

  • awesome man!

  • This is excellent!!!
