Take a look into Lumos bike helmets: https://ridelumos.com/products/remotes-and-mounts https://ridelumos.com/products/remotes-and-mounts They started via a kickstarter in 2015: https://www.google.com/search?q=lumos+helmet+history https://www.google.com/search?q=lumos+helmet+history ...they kindof "always" had reliability issues w/ detecting braking accurately, I think switching between the handlebar remote/sensor or phone sensors.

Beware of patents (as relevant), but it's a noble and useful project and goal.
