SeeSense launched smart sensor LED bicycle lights

SeeSense launched a light environment can be adjusted automatically according to the surrounding lights, in addition, the car can also be based on the surrounding traffic conditions to automatically adjust the brightness.

SeeSense car inventor Philip McAleese said that by only when necessary to adjust the lamp to a high brightness, SeeSense can extend the battery's use time - with the USB to charge a battery can be used continuously for 12 hours. The product is a waterproof type bicycle taillight design, contains the reverse bias LED to measure the illumination environment, also equipped with an accelerometer. One of the internal microcontroller can be used to determine the movement of the sensor, uphill or downhill, speed up or brake, tilt and yaw angle and other factors. By transferring the data to a model designed by McAleese, the microprocessor is able to further determine whether the cyclist is crossing the road or crossing the road or crossing the road.

By using LED technology, SeeSense lights can not only detect whether the sun is falling, but also to determine whether the bike into a tunnel and the car headlights to judge whether there is a car coming. In the above case, the lights will temporarily increase the brightness and strobe. No power switch, only through a variety of actions to achieve the switch and adjust. If the owner forgot to turn it off, the lights will automatically shut down for 10 minutes without detecting the action.

The lamp uses a Fresnel lens to make the light reach a wide range of visibility. Ordinary bicycle headlights with a maximum brightness of 150 lumens, taillights of 90 lumens. Plans to strengthen the lights are able to achieve 200 lumens and 120 lumens. The average price of the ordinary lamp is $95.
