The Samsung Smart Bike comes with extra safety features thanks to the developments from the massive mobile phone company and its partner in crime, Arduino.
The new design was shown during Milan Design Week to much excitement, as the bike comes equipped with "an innovative curved frame that neutralizes dangerous vibrations caused by riding on rough city streets, four laser beams that create individual bike lanes, an integrated GPS system and a rearview camera that streams a live video feed to the handlebar-mounted samsung device." For any riders who have experienced some of the dangers on the road while trying to navigate through traffic, these additions would make this ordeal that much easier. Hopefully the cost isn't too high so more people can take the Samsung Smart Bike on the road.
