§01 · THE PROBLEM

A structural gap.

Regulations have not kept pace with the explosion of micromobility. Cars receive mandatory active safety measures (GSR 2019/2144). Bicycles, nothing.

```
At an intersection in Munich, a woman on a cargo bike raised her hand to signal a turn. She lost her balance. She fell down.
"We have reached Mars. Yet the way a cyclist announces her intentions hasn't changed since the 18th century."

DinkaSafe™ eliminates this problem at the source: signalling without releasing the handlebar.

§02 · WHY NOW

The EU is drafting regulation. We are writing the reference implementation.

Brussels, Berlin and Geneva are converging on the same conclusion within 36 months. We intend to obtain certification before the deadline, not rush after it.

JUN
2024

StVZO Update

The 56th amendment legalizes directional indicators on bicycles in Germany.

JUL
2024

GSR 2019/2144 enforced

Cars: AEB, ISA, turn assistance become mandatory. Bicycles remain uncovered.

2024
2025

UNECE Draft Regulation

Germany submits document ECE/TRANS/WP.29/GRE/2024/9 — rules for handlebar indicators.

NOV
2025

European Commission Study

The Commission recommends a unified approval framework for PMDs under 250 kg.

2026
2028

PMD Regulation enters force

Signalling, braking and illumination become mandatory. DinkaSafe™: the first certified implementation.

§04 · TECHNOLOGY

Three pillars, one integrated system.

```
1
AUTOMATIC
Automatic gyroscopic detection plus route-based anticipation — the system signals ahead of the turn and validates it through onboard motion safety before acting, with one-finger manual control and absolute manual override priority. Always without releasing the handlebar.
Method protected under European patents pending examination.
2
INTEGRATED
Brake, turn, hazard, electronic horn, position lights and road illumination — all in one unified system, coherently controlled.
3
AUTONOMOUS
Tri-hybrid energy harvesting plus USB — 24h+ self-sustained operation on the Tri-Hybrid line. No interruptions.
```
§05 · ROADMAP

EU Type-Approval Roadmap.

Designed to passenger-vehicle safety standards from day one. TÜV quality from the start, no retrofits.
