Bike With Hearing

Vision

It's very dangerous that without hearing anything but riding the bike, and at the same time using the navigator will enhance the risk of having accident, because if you can’t hear anything you have to always look at your phone, however under the strong sunlight you may not be able to see anything on the phone. Hence in these conditions when deaf people are turning or stopping suddenly without knowing the conditions around is very dangerous. Under these considerations on the road, the BIKE FOR DEAF is born.

The bike can do the smart connection with your phone, the user can first tell the phone where you want to go, then the navigation will be transferred to the bike, what you need to do is riding your bike bravely. Because during riding, the bike will tell you to turn through the vibration of your grips on the corresponding side. When you have to change your direction from approaching to turn, the vibration will get stronger and stronger, making sure that the user won't turn suddenly. Through the sensor on the bike, it can distinguish coming car and people from your back where the user can’t see which are approaching and getting inside the safe region of the user, under this circumstance the bike will interact with the user through the vibration of the seat and represent the corresponding sign on the smartphone screen. So the user can have a look to the back or on the mirror and pay more attention to identify what kind of reactions he\she need to do. In advance, it will use the light and play some sounds to the environment to warn others. The user can cancel the warning if the situation is safe but the system is keeping reminding, for example, in the traffic jam. So in this way even you can’t listen to anything for knowing the surroundings, you can still enjoy your riding safely !!

AMI steps

acting

the vibrating feedback from the grips, visual feedback of the light, and sound play.

interacting

user can control the vibration off or on, the system will sent the feedback information for the user to let user be careful. the vibration will warn the user for the upcoming vehicle or people, when navigating, also the turning information will be informed to the user

sensing

the bike can sense the car or human behind the user with knowing the distance between them

reasoning

through the sensor the bike will know if the car or bike behind will cause dangerous for user, and figure out if light and sound play, with the app, our bike knows when should our user turn left or right

AMI Features

intelligent

According to the navigator or the moving object behind, reminding users and telling them through vibration. Furthermore it will use sound and light to warn others

responsive

once there is the vehicle or the people get inside the save region of user the bike will do the feedback of vibration to the user and light, sound to the other people, and when it's time to turn the road the bike will instruct you to do it.

sensitivity

the system is sensitive to the speed and distance between user and the back moving object like vehicle and people

transparent

The system is invisible to the user, which is built inside the bike like a whole body. In this way it will make the bike looks very nature

Project Features

Below you can find several features that our system has to offer:

Feature No.	Features	Priority
1	with ultrasonic sensor we can sense the coming car and people	1
2	through analysis the data from sensor to figure out if the car and people inside the unsafe zone	1
3	vibrate in the different part of the bike for warning the user	1
4	do the vibration respond on the corresponding side while turning	1
5	play sound and shine the light to warn the driver and walker	2
6	user can turn off the vibration	2
7	sent feedback that camera captured to the phone screen	2
8	distingush if the moving objects behand you is human or car	3

The ultrasonic sensor
located in the back of the bike to detect the movement of cars and people, and the distance between the user and surrounding objects(car and people)
Vibration motors
1. on the seat, for sending the notification for the user about the situation in the back
2. the vibration motors on the left and right grips, for sending the feedback to the user about turning left of right
Speaker, LED light
warn the cars and people inside the unsafe zone to be careful
Arduino
collect then information from sensors, and smart phone,then it will control the behaviour of speaker, light and vibration motors and make camera to capture picture
Smartphone
Bluetooth module

Data collection software in the control center:
collect the data from ultrasonic sensor
smartphone:
set the navigation from the map, then through the google map API to provide the navigation information to the system
control center :
receive and analyse the information collected from the sensors, and smartphone, control the behavior of speakers, LED lights, and vibration motors in different positions.
