A few months ago, we reported on a design concept that would turn your bicycle into a two-wheeled record player. Now, a recently funded IndieGoGo project, entitled Balight, has created technology that turns a bike’s wheels into a custom projection surface.

In a modern update to those little plastic beads you’d put on your 90s bike, a Chinese design company has created Balight; 376 LED lights set across four panels, with the ability to project nearly 16 million colors. Furthermore, the technology is also fully customizable, interactive, and social, with the ability to hold pre-loaded graphics via USB, as well as the ability to create new graphics (via an official app) and customize images and GIFs users may have on their smartphones.
Shockproof, waterproof, and equipped with anti theft, as well as an array of GPS, planning, and tracking tools, Balight is sure to make that ride back from the club a little more stimulating.
