@arxidoskulo White is much brighter than amber. There's nothing wrong with white turn signals. Yes, I have seen cars in America with European or Japanese lights on them making them white. HOWEVER this isn't a car, it's a jacket, making your point moot. The vehicle in question, a motorcycle, would still have amber signals. There's no idiotic research, what I quotes was strictly DOT code. That said, this is a very good design. You're the dipshit, pal.

This is awesome!

I want this for my motorcycle, and automated by the bike's turn signals.

Time for geek mode and google.

I like it! It's so cool! I like electronics and bikes, and your biking jacket is a very good idea. I just got my first arduino and I'm starting.

thats very cool, but I hope those were on your shoulders area to be much wider than in middle of your back.

I love it, I am going to do an underwear for my wife with hazard lights and a beep when she is backing up.

wonderful idea :) my only concern is that because the fabric bends, the lights dont appear to be in an arrow shape and are more a glowing line... perhaps if you put them through something more rigid and sew that into the fabric as well?
