Abstract I have invented a way to make cyclists safer at night, by creating a shirt that has LED lights on the back of it in an ‘X’ pattern which is divided into two separate circuits. Each circuit shows an arrow signalling a direction and if you turn both circuits on at the same time it shows the ‘X’ which means stop.
