Welcome to bike-flash!
Together we make road traffic safer.
We are pleased to welcome you to our website. Our aim is to increase road safety and save lives. Discover how our innovative bike-flash dialog display defuses blind spots and avoids dangerous situations.
Focus on visible prevention
Road safety is a concern that affects all road users. In recent years, speed displays have established themselves as an effective measure to control the speed of vehicles and prevent accidents. Just as straightforward and effective, bike-flash will also contribute to improving road safety.
Similar to speed displays, the bike-flash ensures increased driver awareness through dialog!
While speed displays raise awareness of compliance with speed limits by showing the current speed, the bike-flash uses flashing displays to warn of cyclists, e-scooter riders and pedestrians in blind spots and encourages drivers to look over their shoulder. These visible warning signals increase the attention and attentiveness of drivers, especially in critical traffic situations such as when turning.
Children in road traffic
It is particularly important to us that children experience the preventive dialog display bike-flash to make them aware of blind spots and the associated dangers at an early stage. Through bike-flash , children learn to move more safely in traffic and to better recognize and avoid dangerous situations. This makes a significant contribution to increasing their safety and raises their awareness of the importance of blind spots.
Broad acceptance
After many years, speed displays have finally been understood and are being used by local authorities. The preventive effect of speed displays shows that visible and simple warning systems can be effective in positively influencing driver behavior and preventing accidents. The bike-flash complements these systems and offers an additional safety measure that is particularly useful in complex traffic situations. Thanks to its clear and understandable functionality, it will quickly gain acceptance among road users.
bike-flash is an effective addition to the existing safety measures. Our aim is to use it to achieve a learning cooperation.
The limits of existing safety measures in the blind spot area
1. traffic mirrors: Although these mirrors improve visibility in blind spots, they are susceptible to weather conditions such as rain and snow, which can impair their visibility. They also require active use by the driver, which means that the driver must consciously and regularly check the mirror.
2. truck turning assistants: Although these systems are mandatory, we all know that it takes time for them to be installed in all vehicles. There is also evidence of a high number of false detections, as the sidewalk or cycle path is often unclear, there are distracting buildings and very fast cyclists. Initial discussions with manufacturers of turning systems have already begun in order to link the systems. The stationary bike-flash can send a signal to the turning road user and thus effectively support the turning process.
3.bike-flash App: We are planning to make bike-flash available as an app in the near future. This innovative extension makes it possible to provide real-time information about dangerous intersection situations and thus contributes to even greater road safety. Stay tuned for more details and how you can soon be even smarter and safer on the road!
Angles Mortes sticker: The "Angles Morts" (blind spot) sticker has both advantages and disadvantages. One of the advantages is that it provides a visual warning to other road users, raising awareness of the dangers of blind spots. It can help prevent accidents by alerting cyclists and pedestrians that they are in an area of increased danger. However, the sticker also has disadvantages. It assumes that road users are aware of the warning and react accordingly. In addition, the constant visibility of the sticker can lead to a certain dullness, making the warning less effective. Furthermore, the sticker cannot provide real-time warnings or preventive measures like the dynamic dialog display bike-flash can, which actively draws attention to dangerous situations and thus proactively contributes to road safety.
