Why Research Matters
Micro-mobility is growing quickly, but safety tools, infrastructure, and public awareness are still catching up. Riders often share space with larger vehicles, pedestrians, buses, parked cars, uneven pavement, poor lighting, and distracted traffic.
The more we understand these conditions, the better we can identify where safety gaps exist.
Mantis Motion Labs uses rider feedback and safety observations to help guide future product concepts, educational content, safety reporting, and technology ideas designed around actual rider needs.
What We Study
Our research is focused on the conditions that affect rider safety before, during, and after moments of risk.
We look at visibility issues, rear awareness, road hazards, crash patterns, near-miss events, delivery rider pressure, rider confidence, helmet use, signaling behavior, night riding, traffic exposure, and the types of safety products riders believe would help them most.
From Feedback to Innovation
Every rider experience has value. A single response may point to a common hazard. A repeated pattern may reveal a larger safety problem. Over time, this information can help shape smarter product development and stronger safety conversations.
Mantis Motion Labs is not collecting data just to collect it. We are using it to support better design, better awareness, and safer movement.
Help Build Safer Micro-Mobility
Whether you ride every day, deliver for work, commute by scooter, or only ride occasionally, your feedback matters.
