Question Do you need an advanced bike taillight for safety?

Hi,
I'm a bike commuter and also a maker. Recently, I have made a smart bike taillight which aims to make commuters safer and their bikes more secured.

The unique selling point of this taillight is automatically flashing turn or brake signals with a sensor on biker's helmet. The sensor, along with my algorithm, detects head's motion and lights when rider wants to turn or brake. No manual controller is needed. There are other useful bike-security functions, such as anti-theft alarm, find-your-bike and a controller app.


Do you think the smart taillight with these rich functions for biking safety is attractive?

Thanks for your feedbacks and helping me improve riding safety. It’s also welcome to ask me questions.

Jack
