VeloTones
This is a new one. Bicycle tones.
Cyclists routinely rely on bike computers to determine their spot speed and maintain average speed at a certain pace. However, constantly looking at a computer display is not practical and could be dangerous while cycling.
VeloTones, like ringtones or truetones, are MP3 sounds for mobile devices like cell phone or PDA. They allow cyclists to determine speed without the need to look at the display.
A set of MP3 sounds, comprising VeloTones, can be downloaded to a mobile phone running the SoundOfMotion bicycle computer application. The smart logic, coupled with an innovative bluetooth wheel sensor, plays VeloTones (TM) on a speaker or via bluetooth headset, based on a speed zone or acceleration of a cyclist.
