If your are into biking check this lovely bicycle safety lighting system! Project Aura created a system that requires very little rider input and maintenance, while increasing the visual footprint of bikers from all directions especially from the side. They accomplished this by expanding the surface area of light emitted through the use of RGB LEDs inside the rims of the wheels that change from red when slowing down to white when at cruising speed!! Way way cool ! Check the process here <\/a>! Music by Gold Panda <\/a>– “You”<\/p>\n
