The First Motorcycle In The World To Feature A ‘Sense Of Sight’
Verge Motorcycles has unveiled a significant upgrade to its flagship model, the Verge TS Ultra, at CES 2024. The revamped electric superbike features a groundbreaking ‘sense of sight’ technology that utilizes advanced cameras and radars, powered by artificial intelligence and machine learning. This innovative system marks a paradigm shift in motorcycle safety and intuitiveness, transforming the way riders interact with their machines.
The Verge TS Ultra’s enhanced hardware includes a suite of six cameras and high-resolution radars strategically positioned at both the front and rear of the motorcycle. These sensors continuously gather a comprehensive 360-degree view of the surrounding environment, providing the bike with a level of awareness that far surpasses that of any human rider.
This advanced sensor system feeds real-time data into Verge Motorcycles’ proprietary Starmatter software and intelligence platform. Starmatter employs sophisticated algorithms and machine learning techniques to analyze the vast stream of sensory information, identifying potential hazards and obstacles in the rider’s path.
In real-time, Starmatter generates alerts and warnings to the rider through the motorcycle’s intuitive cockpit display, which has been significantly upgraded for the new model. The central display, located on top of the fuel tank, is now larger and more user-friendly, providing an enhanced overview of the bike’s status and performance.
A Revolution in Motorcycle Safety
The Verge TS Ultra’s ‘sense of sight’ technology marks a significant leap forward in motorcycle safety. By enabling the bike to perceive its surroundings with a level of precision that surpasses human senses, Starmatter can proactively identify and mitigate potential hazards, significantly reducing the risk of accidents.
For instance, Starmatter can detect and alert riders to pedestrians, cyclists, and other vehicles in their blind spots, preventing collisions. It can also warn riders of potential lane changes and sudden obstacles, giving them ample time to react.
Alongside its enhanced safety features, the Verge TS Ultra also offers improved rider convenience and control. The Starmatter Dash view, integrated into the motorcycle’s display, provides a simplified and intuitive interface for managing essential functions, such as navigation, music playback, and communication. The system also seamlessly integrates with the rider’s smartphone, providing a seamless connection between the bike and their digital life.
