Clothes with built-in signals?

[JayyVee]

This is interesting - would be very cool if this could 'sync' with your bike's signals - a big red LED strip on your back for brakes, and turn signals built into side of helmets like the gloves here? (Can you tell I'm into safety..)

That indeed could get messy! If some sort of easilyy disconnected 'wired in' or even wireless connection to the lights could be gained, linking a jacket/helmet with some LED signals may not be a bad idea. Heck, could even be 'stylish' depending on how the LED's were laid out.


Holy crap, someone already makes em, but not tied into the bike's lights (yet!)
