The American startup Streetlogic has developed a collision warning system for cyclists. In the form of two cameras, this device is able to warn and alert riders of any risk of collision with a nearby car. In the future, it could also predict collisions with other road users.

The system works by using peripheral vision cameras, placed at the front and rear of the bike for a 360-degree view. These track the movement of vehicles around the rider. The system can identify potential front, side and rear-end collisions. In fact, the device emits an audible alert if the cyclist is on a potential collision course with a car.
