Wink Bar is the first connected handlebar that you can install on any bike to convert it into a smart bike. The connected handlebar has three main features: - Track and trace system: if someone tries to steal your bike you will receive a notification and be able to track your bike anywhere in the world (GPS, GSM), - Intuitive and universal navigation system: enter your destination on your phone, tuck it away, and get guided thanks to light codes. You can now get guided while keeping your eyes on the road, - Automatic headlights: these powerful lights will turn on and off depending on the ambient light. You can also control them through your phone. For a safer and better commuting
This navigation system integrated in the handlebars has numerous useful solutions. We were particularly impressed by the use of light signals as a simple means of providing guidance. GPS and GSM connections for the accompanying app are already built into the handlebars. And for a navigation system it represents very good value for money.
