This project is a Velodroom Light add-on. Sometimes, the wind works against the cyclist. Now I ask you, why don’t we put that wind power into use? With this cool add-on, it will harness the wind's energy and convert it into useful power. Having a hectic schedule, you might forget or maybe just too lazy to charge your Velodroom Light. With it unpowered, the bicycle rider’ visibility decreases especially in dark conditions. That should never be an option because we all know there are many crazy drivers around. You will never again have to worry about running out of power. Not only that, you can also change the blades' color to your own liking. Match it with your bike, clothes, packs, or any other accessories! How It Works It is made out of lightweight and durable plastic. The setup will also include a turbine. This turbine which is connected to the blade will convert the kinetic energy from the wind into mechanical energy. Then, the mechanical energy will be converted into electricity using a generator. As a result, this will provide us with sufficient energy to charge the Velodroom Light.
