As LED lighting has taken over nearly every moment of our daily lives and many cities around the world have completely replaced their street lights with LEDs, the time of smart zebras has come as well.
Imagine a zebra crossing whose surface is lined by LEDs that light up your way when you cross. This light signals both to drivers and to cyclists that there are pedestrians crossing. In this way, even if you are hidden by the trees along the pavement or distracted by your phone, crossing becomes much safer. This is also an option that is significantly more secure for children, who are much more likely to rush out in the street without thinking of their safety.
