Developed for use in Moto GP, the In&Motion vest provides an airbag for all motorcycle riders, which can be worn under any type of jacket and has an integrated back protector.
The vest uses a device known as the In&Box which contains embedded sensors and an algorithm which is capable of detecting a crash or an unrecoverable loss of balance; data from the sensors is analysed to inflate the airbag in under 100 milliseconds.
The vest connects to a smartphone, allowing the user to obtain data such as their speed or even GPS data; if it detects that the wearer has stopped moving, it can also call the emergency services.
