You stated that Helite provides an AI non tethered solution.

They do not.

Have you considered critical thinking and actually thinking in general whether a post is warranted?

Perhaps your post needs to be more polite and respectful.

This product is exactly like the others is your list considering AI is only a buzz word used in marketing.

MotoGP riders use AI airbag vests, manufactured by Alpinestars and Dainese. 

Perhaps you might perceive AI as a buzz word used in marketing.

Especially when a representative from a company has reached out and all you can do is give uninformed information in a negative way?

You might be perceiving the information as uninformed, in a negative way.

Members may find it useful and valuable information that assists them.

The AI in all your suggestions are not geared up for EUC's which is why they are not an option

That is your opinion of the AI offered by other manufacturers.

Please bomb this thread with 1537 random videos to demonstrate this.

 

You do not think this video demonstrates effectively, what would be difficult to describe in words?

You mean it's great for making an emotional plea that is devoid of specifics?

Pretty much every video you post, summed.

We have an electronic system that has been on the market for going on three years.

 

The other manufacturers utilize Artificial Intelligence.  There is no tether.

Helite uses an 'electronic system'.

 

Does the Helite airbag vest use a tether for deployment?

@Tawpie  I appreciate your feedback. This is great information and very thoughtful responses.

@Paul A  All of the manufacturers of electronic airbags utilize the same technology. Gyroscopes, accelerometers and GPS. If this is considered AI, then I suppose we use it as well. If you took a few minutes to research us, you would see that our electronic airbags do not use a tether. Why would we offer an electronic airbag with a tether? Kind of defeats the purpose don't ya think? Our MECHANICAL airbags use a tether, but we are talking about electronic airbags, so not sure why you keep bringing this point up as it is moot.

Could you provide a model name and/or link, to the Helite Airbag Vest, that does not use a tether.

Thank you.

From the link provided, clicking on the model:

Helite E-GP Air Track Vest

leads to information in the link:

A 'lanyard' would be another term for a 'tether'?

The Helite relies on a 'fork sensor' to detect impact, and deploy, when the rider is stationary.

The Alpine Star Tech Air 5 does not use a Fork Sensor. 

It is permanently armed to deploy when rider is stationary, in the event of being rear ended whilst at lights.

The single, hard, metallic gas cylinder of the Helite is positioned at the front of the body, next to the ribs.

The two gas cylinders of the Alpine Stars Tech 5, are located on the back of a rider.
