Alpinestars, a leader in motorcycling protection since 1963, introduces the Tech-Air® 5, an autonomous airbag system that offers exceptional versatility for a wide range of riders. As the newest addition to the Tech-Air® family, which includes the Tech-Air® Race and Tech-Air® Street systems, Tech-Air® 5 exemplifies Alpinestars' dedication to advancing active airbag technology for riders and passengers alike. This innovative vest is designed to be worn under any properly fitting textile jacket, Tech-Air® compatible jacket, or leather jacket with 4 cm of space around the chest, providing unparalleled upper body protection.
The Tech-Air® 5 airbag vest stands out due to its slim, self-contained design that offers unrivalled protection for the rider's shoulders, chest, ribs, and full back. The inclusion of shoulder protection is particularly significant as it minimizes the risk of shoulder and collarbone injuries, which are common in road impacts. This comprehensive coverage makes Tech-Air® 5 the most protective airbag available on the market today.
Equipped with an advanced electronic system featuring six integrated sensors (three gyroscopes and three accelerometers), the Tech-Air® 5 utilizes a sophisticated crash algorithm powered by AI. This technology, refined through extensive research and analysis of riding data from millions of kilometres and thousands of crashes, ensures accurate detection and timely deployment of the airbag in the event of a crash. The airbag inflates within 20 to 40 milliseconds, significantly reducing the impact force by up to 95% compared to passive protectors. This level of protection is equivalent to that offered by 18 back protectors, making the Tech-Air® 5 a standout in rider safety.
Ease of use is another key feature of the Tech-Air® 5. Riders simply need to zip up the vest and close the magnetic flap to be ready for the road. An LED display indicates the operational status of the airbag, while the integrated, certified lithium-ion battery provides 30 hours of riding time and can be quickly recharged using the included magnetic micro USB charger. The system also boasts Bluetooth connectivity and an accompanying Tech-Air® App, which displays the system's status, battery level, and detailed ride analysis, with firmware updates accessible via the app.
The Tech-Air® 5 is designed with the modern rider in mind, offering seamless integration with a variety of jackets while ensuring maximum safety. Whether you're wearing a textile jacket or a Tech-Air® compatible leather jacket, the Tech-Air® 5 provides the ultimate protection, making it an indispensable piece of equipment for any serious motorcyclist.
*WARNING: This vest should not be used by people wearing a pacemaker or other electronic medical devices and people with breast implants. Remember that there are magnets inside the activation tab!
KEY FEATURES
- The state-of-the-art, wearable Tech-Air® 5 vest comes with an active electronic system that features six integrated sensors (3 gyroscopes and 3 accelerometers) and a crash algorithm that leverages AI to accurately monitor when to deploy the airbag in the event of a crash
- Developed from years of research with over 50% of the world’s top MotoGP riders, and Alpinestars customers, riding data from millions of kilometres and thousands of crashes have been analysed to continuously improve the intelligent crash detection algorithm
- Upon the identification of a crash situation, a protective airbag is deployed, providing unrivalled protection to the rider with a maximum inflation time of 20 to 40ms based on the volume of the airbag size
- The impact absorption while wearing the airbag results in a decrease of the impact force by up to 95% compared to a passive protector
- The Tech-Air® 5 Airbag System offers the same protection as that provided by 18 back protectors
- The system is also extremely easy to use, just zip up the vest and close the magnetic flap, and you’re ready to ride
- An LED display indicates the airbag’s operational status and the integrated, certified lithium-ion battery has a battery life of 30 hours of riding time
- The system comes equipped with a magnetic micro USB charger that allows quick, easy and convenient recharging
- Tech-Air® 5 has Bluetooth connectivity and an accompanying Tech-Air® App, which uses the rider’s phone to display the system’s operational status, battery status and a detailed analysis of a ride; the system’s firmware can also be updated directly via the app
- The Tech-Air® 5 wearable vest is designed to be worn under any proper fitting textile jacket, keeping in mind that the jacket must be large enough to accommodate the expansion of the airbag in the event of a crash. For textile jackets this requires an additional 4 cm of space around the circumference of the body. For those riders who want to wear a sports leather jacket, Tech-Air® 5 may also be worn with Tech-Air® compatible leather jackets which have built in leather expansion panels to accommodate the inflation of the airbag
- Riders who wish to wear a leather jacket that is not Tech-Air® compatible must be sure that the leather jacket has an additional 4 cm of space around the circumference of the entire chest
