Background

Started out of a dorm room at Harvard and HKUST, Lumen Labs created Lumos, the world's first smart bicycle helmet with integrated lights, brake, and turn signals. Lumos raised over $800,000 USD on Kickstarter in August 2015, skyrocketing it to the top 0.1% of campaigns and has been featured on BuzzFeed, TechCrunch, Quartz, and The Independent. Lumos was named one of the "Best Cycling Innovations of 2015" by Cycling Weekly.

Vision

Seeing the trend of more and more cyclist around the world, we at Lumen Labs endeavor to create the next IOT platform for urban commuters to improved their efficiency and safety. Being one of the fastest growing hardware startup in the region, we embrace a flexible working culture and celebrate creativity and outside the box thinking.
