Re: dainese airbags (MSchu)
Very cool. Something similar may end up being distributed for the open market.
Of course, people that refuse to wear gear anyways would never touch such a thing

Re: dainese airbags (.paul)
It looks like they still have a lot of work to do.
That first video shows it deploying after the initial impact. The guy was already sliding by the time it opened. I guess it can protect against rolling after that, but one would expect it to deploy instantly.
Very cool nevertheless, reminds me of the airbag system that's incorporated into the jacket that saved its first life a few months ago (anyone got the link?)

why would they rely on a computer instead of a rope.

yea i read up on the tether system back in 03 but it never truely got popular on the open market. i think they decided to write software for something like this because of the fact that if you highside, you may want the airbag deployed before you hit the ground, or else its pointless. If you highside and the bike is flying along side you (which i know is usually never the case) the airbag wont deploy because the tether will still be in range of the bike
give it 2 years i think and a version of this will probably we available for mass distribution on the open market.
its exciting to see that well actually have something else to protect us.
