Detail
Alpinestars Tech-Air 5 System Tech-Air 5 is a slim, self-contained wearable airbag vest designed to be worn under practically any jacket! The state-of-the-art Tech-Air 5 System features six integrated sensors (3 gyroscopes and 3 accelerometers) to continuously monitor the riders position. An algorithm developed closely with MotoGP race data and data from over 2,000 lab-simulated crash scenarios determine when and how the system deploys. The airbag has a maximum inflation time of up to 40ms (or less, depending on vest size). The impact absorption while wearing the airbag results in a decrease of impact force by up to 93 compared to a passive protector. Inflation time is quick enough to deploy the airbag before the riders first impact with an obstacle. The airbag has a battery life good for 30 hours of riding time on a single charge, and an LED display conveniently shows system status directly on the garment. The system features Bluetooth connectivity to pair with the Tech-Air App, which uses the riders phone to display the systems operational status, battery status and provide detailed analysis of a ride. Over-the-air firmware updates are also handled through the app. Alpinestars includes a micro USB charger for quick recharging. Electronics System: Active electronic system that features six triaxial integrated sensors (3 gyroscopes and 3 accelerometers) Crash algorithm that leverages AI to accurately monitor when to deploy the airbag in the event of a crash 30 hours of riding time after a full charge via micro USB charger Bluetooth and App integration Capable of both Race and Street use Airbag System: Covers shoulders, chest, ribs and full back Maximum inflation time of 20-40ms based on the volume of the airbag size Decreases impact force by 93 compared to a passive protector Includes argon gas canisters Highly ventilated back protector Leave elbow and shoulder armor in your jacket, but removing the jackets back protector is recommended (since the Tech Air 5 has one built in) Operation: Zip up vest and close magnetic flap Integrated LED display indicates operational status Washing Care: Do not submerge in water Spot clean with a microfiber cloth Use cold or room temperature water, add mild detergent (ex.
