Abstract:
A garment for cycling, having indicating lights associated with sleeves of the garment; first and second accelerometers provided on respective sleeves; and a controller configured to receive data from the accelerometers and determine from the date whether a wearer of the garment has raised an arm to indicate a maneuver. The controller is further configured to illuminate the appropriate indicating light depending on which arm has been raised, and to compare the data from the first and second accelerometers to filter out movements common to both the first and second accelerometers and determine when the sleeves are being moved independently of one another in a manner to indicate a turn.

Claim (Index 20):
A method comprising:\n operating first and second accelerometers on respective first and second sleeves of a cycling garment to detect movement of the sleeves; and operating a controller to analyze data received from the accelerometers, and a) illuminate a signal light if the respective accelerometer signals indicate relative movement between the accelerometers exceeding a threshold, and b) suppress illumination of the signal light if the data indicate approximately equal movement of the accelerometers in opposite directions in vertical and/or longitudinal axes.
