Development of an anti-locking system for the rear wheel of a road bicycle

When I was a student, I had a bicycle accident on the way to school (nothing serious). At the time I had to brake very hard because a scooter didn't see me. My rear wheel got stuck and I lost control of my bike... So I developed two extremely robust speed sensors and a lock wheel detector to activate an anti blocking system. Stay tuned for more updates on this little personal project. Here is a first demo of the system. Due to lack of time I stopped working on this project :(
