Alert -sound demonstration with the second prototype

Radicand finished up the second prototype this week and sent over a video demonstrating the new audio alert feature added to this prototype to pair with the visual display on the handlebars. This is a LIDAR system set up on a rotating servo, installed into a Companion Bike Seat as a proof-of-concept. As objects get closer to the sensor, the screen will light up. When things start to approach too closely, it will start chirping to let you know that you might need to react.

I'll be picking up this prototype tomorrow and bringing it home for some testing out on the road!
