Make Your Bike Helmet Point You To The Nearest Citi Bike Station! #AdafruitWeekendProject
The weather is finally warming up. It’s time to take a Citi bike for a spin! For help navigating to the nearest bike station try this Adafruit tutorial for a fun Citi bike helmet!
Improve your visibility with style! Mod up this bike helmet with LED strip, a FLORA GPS, and find your way to the nearest Citi Bike station with ease. We used a Carrera foldable helmet, which has grooves between the protection, perfect for NeoPixel strip.
Before you begin this project, we recommend reading the following guides:
