Bike Helmet Black Box Printer Friendly Version
The core of this invention is the inclusion of a "black box" recorder in bicycle and motor bike helmets. This black box recorder would be similar to other black box recorders, would monitor and record key information, which can then be recovered and replayed after an incident. The key information that would be recorded is speed, velocity, altitude, G-Forces, impact force and the like. The information could be used variably for (a) identifying root cause of accidents for insurance and legal reasons, (b) identifying technology opportunities for improvements to helmets, (c) creating databases of user habits with the opportunity for educational-based improvements to prevent accidents, and (d) in creating data that may aid medical treatment where head injuries have occurred.

Human powered monorail Printer Friendly Version
I've seen the 'Shweeb' pedal powered monorail, but what if you want a better view, more power and a more natural posture? What if you crossed the Shweeb monorail system with a drive system modeled after an elliptical machine? (check out the elliptiGO). An upright, 1-2 person pod designed for speed, aerodynamics, and low-impact human-powered transportation.
