Interesting peice of tech aimed at rider’s safety. Via Visor Down:
The small device can either be worn like a watch, strapped to a belt, or tucked in your jacket pocket. Not only can the device alert you or an emergency contact to a crash, but the system can also understand, through GPS from the user’s smartphone, what the road ahead looks like. Because of this, the Sentinel can inform the rider of the severity of a corner allowing them to adjust their speed accordingly. The system notifies the rider to alerts with haptic vibrations that can alert the rider to a range of situations.
