Improving safety for motorcycle riders is the 2023 Shark Skwal i3 helmet, which comes with integrated brake lights. The Skwal I3 does not require a hard wired connection to the motorcycle, or any Bluetooth pairing with a bike-mounted module – both are common connection methods for helmet mounted brake lights
The system will flash the helmet mounted brake lights three times per second under steady braking and five times per second under hard braking conditions. This increases visibility of the rider to other road users during emergency situations. The Skwal i3 uses an internal battery with USB charging, giving 12 hours of use with a three-hour charge. Sleep mode activates after two minutes of no movement and after 24 hours the unit will turn off completely to preserve battery life.
