Ford unveils back-padded Emoji bike jacket

The automaker created the cycling jacket as part of its Share the Road program, which aims to increase the number of ways

communication between cyclists and drivers while driving.

On the back of the jacket is an LED mesh,which is controlled by a wireless remote control mounted on the handlebars of a bicycle. Using the remote control, the cyclist can turn on one of six images on the jacket - the right or left arrow, a warning sign about the danger, as well as smiling, sad or neutral emoticons.

The company has no plans to produce a kurt on a commercial basis. Could this happen in the future, Ford did not specify.

Previously, engineers from the University of CaliforniaСанта-Барбаре и Исследовательской лаборатории армии США создали новый материал для набивки шлемов, который поглощает удары лучше, чем используемая сейчас пенистая прокладка из пенопласта.
