Version 4.0

  • 9-DOF sensor incl. magnetometer
  • Improved attachment system or backup sling
  • Better LEDs and richer animations
  • Onboard storage to log sensor data for later analysis

Long-term Vision

  • More comprehensive and robust animations with better sensor data
  • Cleaner, more refined industrial design
  • Machine learning for advanced sensor interpretation
  • Potential market launch via TikTok Reels and Etsy

Ideas Backlog

Collected ideas for future iterations — from hardware tweaks to visual improvements.

Two LED strips on the back instead of the eye design
Remove visible hot glue — merge plate and mainbody for a cleaner look
Round eyes instead of square — possible pivot to exhaust design for more nitro aesthetic
Less stutter when dimming: better refresh rate, lower minimum brightness, more brightness steps
Dark filament for LED standoff dividers to prevent light bleed
Colors that match the board — shrink the visual footprint

Research & Exploration

Magnetometer Integration

Adding a magnetometer for full 9-DOF orientation — enabling heading-aware animations and compass-based effects.

Machine Learning

Training models on sensor data to recognize trick patterns, riding styles, and terrain automatically.

Market Potential

Exploring TikTok Reels for viral marketing and Etsy as a first sales channel for handmade units.
