Abstract

People are using bicycles as means of transport from several years and nowadays, despite there is large availability of new and faster means, use of cycles is not decreasing. Urban development of numerous cities is pointing to friendly environment for cyclists, and considering its environmental benefits, there have been specific policies encouraging the use of bicycles as a means of transport. Since, cycling in a city is not an easy task. Traffic signals, cars, other bicycles, weather conditions, inappropriate roads, obstacles, are some of the things cyclist need to take carefully into consideration to safely complete a ride. The task is sometimes tough when the cyclist knows the way, but if she/he ignores it, navigating can be even more complicated, especially in cities where streets nomenclature does not follow an easily recognizable pattern. And even night time the cyclists will find very difficult to travel because of low intensity of light and the nearby vehicles also find difficult to point them. This paper aims to solve this issue by introducing a Smart Jacket for cyclists so that cyclist will be better visible especially during night through indicating the directions before they take a turn.
