Description

Title of the invention: Visual safety device for motorcycle

[0001] The motorcycle has established itself in the major cities of the world and this means of transport has a series of advantages which could establish it permanently in the landscape of our metropolises. Riding a motorcycle in the city gives us a lot of freedom, we can use most roads and share the road with motorists.

[0002] The problem when riding a motorcycle is the lack of visibility, that is to say traffic, movement approaching from behind. Many motorcyclists wear headphones and do not hear the horns of all kinds of vehicles. To avoid traffic jams, motorcyclists weave between cars, move suddenly to the right or left without looking behind them, and this can turn into a tragedy.

[0003] The visual safety device for a motorcycle according to the invention makes it possible to overcome this drawback; it is a motorcycle comprising one or more on-board cameras and one or more dynamic display devices allowing the user of said motorcycle to view traffic, movement and any kind of mobile object approaching from behind and / or from the rear left side and / or from the rear right side of said motorcycle.

[0004] Said visual safety device for motorcycles concerns the scooter and the sidecar.

[0005] Said visual safety device for motorcycle concerns all types of motorcycle.

[0006] Said visual safety device for motorcycle consists of: One or more cameras mounted with a day and / or night mode in said motorcycle transmitting videos, images and multimedia data in real time, with wireless and / or wired connection to a dynamic display monitor, i.e. to a dynamic display screen, incorporated in the dashboard of said motorcycle and / or a dynamic display monitor mounted on the handlebars or any other location of said motorcycle. Said dynamic display monitor is positioned in such a way that the user of said motorcycle can easily view the multimedia data, images and video transmitted by said cameras. The motorcycle also has motion detection sensors and radar. The motorcycle can also be fitted with night vision cameras.

[0007] The accompanying drawings illustrate the invention:

[0008] [Fig. 1] represents a motorcycle comprising the different places which can receive cameras and a digital signage monitor.

[0009] A dynamic display monitor (5), A saddle (6), A right rearview mirror (1) A left rearview mirror (2) A straight handle (3) A left handle (4) A motorcycle trunk (8) A tail light (7)

[0010] With reference to these drawings:

[0011] According to one embodiment, the camera is placed in a location of said motorcycle such that said camera can transmit images, video data of traffic, movement approaching from behind and / or from the rear left side and / or from the rear right side of said motorcycle.

[0012] According to one embodiment, the invention relates to any Device allowing a camera to view over 170°, that is to say 170 degrees and in real time images, videos and multimedia data of traffic, movement approaching from behind and / or from the rear left side and / or from the rear right side of said motorcycle.

[0013] According to one embodiment, the dynamic display monitor (5) comprises a video data input for receiving video data from said cameras and display areas for displaying the video data.

[0014] According to one embodiment, the camera is installed or incorporated and positioned on the left handle (4) of said motorcycle.
