For story suggestions please contact tips@nma.com.tw<br /><br />A team of designers from Sichuan University in China has developed an innovative concept cycling light which reveals contours in terrain, allowing the rider to avoid hazards at night.<br />The concept light is designed to improve safety when night riding over uneven surfaces.<br />A grid of light illuminates the ground. Horizontal and vertical lines warp as they pass over uneven terrain, aiding depth perception and helping the rider avoid hazards.<br />The LED is powered by either kinetic energy from rotation of the rear wheel, or by an internal battery.<br />The light has three modes: standard, high-speed mode and team-mode.<br /><br />The concept won Sichuan University's Department of Industrial Design a 2013 Red Dot design award.<br /><br /><br />FOR MORE TOMONEWS US, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=TomoNewsUS <br />Facebook http://www.facebook.com/TomoNewsUS<br />Twitter @tomonewsus http://www.twitter.com/TomoNewsUS<br />Google+ http://gplus.to/TomoNewsUS<br /><br />FOR FUNNY TAIWANESE ANIMATIONS, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=NMAWorldEdition <br /><br />FOR FUNNY TAIWANESE ANIMATIONS IN ENGLISH, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=NMAtv <br /><br />FOR TOMONEWS IN JAPANESE, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=TomoNewsJP <br /><br />FOR APPLE DAILY ENGLISH, GO TO: http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=AppleDailyEnglish
