This smart bicycle light makes cycling safer with its connected brake lights. From French startup Cosmo Connected, the Cosmo Bike light is added on to the back of your helmet using magnetic fastenings. Cosmo Connected also makes a similar system for motorcyclists and plan to release more for a variety of uses, from skiing to horseback riding to construction workers and even law enforcement officers.
The smart bicycle light has a brake light that can be seen in daylight as well as at night, and in any weather. It also comes with an emergency alert system called Ecall in the event of an accident and will text loved ones. Fall-detection technology is also integrated to the Cosmo Bike.
This is an example of how the Internet of Things (IoT) can make sports safer.
