So we're working on a prototype for a helmet that vibrates to let a cyclist know when he/she is to close to a stationary vehicle. In use, the cyclist will experience a gentle vibration when the sensor detects a stationary object of a certain width and size. After the initial vibe it will go into awareness mode. Once it feels the old disturbance is gone , only then will it vibe again on the next object if there has been about a 10second or 20second gap. So there won't be an annoyance of constant vibrations or a random buzzer that goes of by anything near it.

Is this something we as a community would be in need of? I have not seen anything like this on the market.

I would love some feed back and Thank you in advance.
