reference is made herein to the attached drawings . like reference numerals are used throughout the drawings to depict like or similar elements of the motorcycle rider visualization device . for the purposes of presenting a brief and clear description of the present invention , the preferred embodiment will be discussed as used for providing a passive and an active illumination means for motorists to recognize the position of a rider in traffic and in low light . the figures are intended for representative purposes only and should not be considered to be limiting in any respect . referring now to fig1 , there is shown a perspective view of an exemplary embodiment of the motorcycle rider visualization device of the present invention . the present invention comprises an illuminated and reflective assembly 20 that is attachable to the rear of a motorcycle helmet or is designed into the rear portion of a motorcycle helmet by a helmet manufacturer . the assembly 20 functions in two primary ways : the assembly provides an active illumination means in the form of energizeable light signals 21 , and the assembly provides a passive illumination means in the form of a reflective surface around the light source bezels . the goal of the assembly is to increase the visibility of the rider , and notably the rider &# 39 ; s head in traffic and in low light . by providing an indicator assembly and reflective surface along the helmet , the rider &# 39 ; s highest point is illuminated , which is much easier for other motorists to see in traffic . by positioning the assembly on the helmet , motorists can visualize the state of the motorcycle and the position of the rider across and through other vehicles ( e . g . through other vehicle windows or over the hoods thereof ). this increases overall awareness of the rider &# 39 ; s presence and increases everyone &# 39 ; s safety , which is paramount for a rider given the rider is without the protective shell offered by a typical automobile in the event of a collision or accident . the assembly 20 comprises an elongated surface 25 that supports an upstanding housing thereon . the housing supports the bezels of the first and second light signals 21 and encloses the electrical elements thereof . the electrical features include at least one circuit for energizing the light signals 21 , battery power , a wireless signal receiver for communicating with a transmitter mounted on the motorcycle , as well as the light sources themselves ( preferably light emitting diodes ( leds )). the housing extends away from the elongated surface and directs the light signals away from the surface 25 , which is supported along the exterior surface of the helmet along its rear portion . in this way , the light signals project away from the rider &# 39 ; s helmet and are directed rearward to supplement the brake lights and turn signal attached to the motorcycle . the elongated surface supporting the housing comprises a first side and a second side . the first side supports the housing and faces outward from the attached motorcycle helmet , while the second side is attached thereto . if the assembly is to be an accessory for an existing helmet , the second side includes a peel away layer 26 to reveal a tacky adhesive second side , which is utilized to secure the assembly 20 to the rear surface of the motorcycle helmet . the first side of the surface 25 comprises a reflector material thereon , which reflects incoming light for increased illumination of the rider in low light and in traffic . the incoming light from the vehicle headlights reflects from this surface so the motorists can easily recognize the rider , even when the active signals 21 are not in operation . in this way , the reflective surface 25 acts as a passive illumination means when the active signals 21 are not operational or when their battery has been depleted and not recharged . referring now to fig2 , there is shown a view of the motorcycle rider visualization device affixed to the rear surface 51 of a typical full - face motorcycle helmet 50 . the assembly 20 is adhered to the rear of a motorcycle helmet 50 or is integrally designed into the rear surface 51 thereof by a helmet manufacturer . when deployed , the reflective surface 25 provides a passive illumination means and the energizeable light signals 21 provide an active illumination means for motorists behind the rider to first visualize the rider in traffic , and further to recognize when the motorcycle is braking , turning or idling . referring finally to fig3 , there is shown contemplated electrical schematic of the transmitter circuit 66 attached to the motorcycle and electrically connected to the turn signal circuit . the transmitter circuit 66 takes inputs going to the turn signal lamps 65 and utilizes them to transmit a signal to the receiver attached to the rider &# 39 ; s helmet , wherein the turn signals can be coordinated between the motorcycle and the light signals on the rider &# 39 ; s helmet . the transmitter circuit includes a short range wireless antenna 67 that can pair with the receiver in the assembly on the rider helmet . the transmitter circuit 66 is a module that is spliced into the electrical wiring of the motorcycle , which then can determine how and when the lamps 65 on the motorcycle are being utilized ( in this case , for turn signals ). the transmitter then wireless communicates the interpreted signal to the helmet assembly to replicate the motorcycle &# 39 ; s signals . the transmitter circuit 66 is spliced between the turn signal switch 64 and the lamps 65 on the motorcycle , while power is drawn directly from the vehicle battery 60 driving the lamps and the electrical features of the motorcycle while in operation . the typical wiring of the motorcycle includes an ignition switch 62 to control overall operation of the circuit , a flasher to pulse the lamps when necessary , a turn signal switch 64 to activate the turn signal lamps 65 . the schematic of fig3 is but one configuration and an example of the wiring used to coordinate turn signals . the transmitter circuit 66 is designed to be spliced before the rear lamps and turn signals of the motorcycle to replicate running lights , braking lights , turn signals , and hazard warning lights . overall , the present invention is designed to provide both a passive and an active illumination means along the rear of the motorcycle helmet , first to increase awareness of the rider in traffic , and also to coordinate the signaling of the motorcycle to a position higher on the rider &# 39 ; s person . when a motorcycle is in front of multiple vehicles , it is difficult for the other vehicles to see the motorcyclist . this can be problematic at any time of day , but especially at night when accidents are prone to happen . the present invention describes a motorcycle helmet assembly that is wirelessly paired to the motorcycle electrical system to coordinate signals being generated therefrom . the system may further include an ambient light sensor for adjusting the brightness of the lights depending on surrounding conditions . the light sensor can be supported within the housing and directed upward or outward to adjust the light brightness as necessary based on ambient lighting conditions . this allows the light intensity from the light signals to be adjusted based on the outside conditions such that they do not overpower the motorcycle lights . the light signals themselves are preferably an array of led light sources that are energized by an appropriate led circuit . the array may include leds of a singular color , or alternatively the array may include one color for braking lights and another color within the array for signifying a turn signal . finally , the assembly on the motorcycle helmet is powered by an internal battery , which is preferably removable or adapted or receive a charging cord for recharging the batter after extended use . it is submitted that the instant invention has been shown and described in what is considered to be the most practical and preferred embodiments . it is recognized , however , that departures may be made within the scope of the invention and that obvious modifications will occur to a person skilled in the art . with respect to the above description then , it is to be realized that the optimum dimensional relationships for the parts of the invention , to include variations in size , materials , shape , form , function and manner of operation , assembly and use , are deemed readily apparent and obvious to one skilled in the art , and all equivalent relationships to those illustrated in the drawings and described in the specification are intended to be encompassed by the present invention . therefore , the foregoing is considered as illustrative only of the principles of the invention . further , since numerous modifications and changes will readily occur to those skilled in the art , it is not desired to limit the invention to the exact construction and operation shown and described , and accordingly , all suitable modifications and equivalents may be resorted to , falling within the scope of the invention .
