Protection screen on the Chat
Safe and sociable cycling with physical barrier
Through the protection screen persons can cycle again and continue on the Chat together without (possibly) infecting the other person.
Â
The protection screen is made of a polyurethaan foil and is completely transparent. The shielding is therefore not only safer in terms of corona measures, but also safer because it not deprived of vision.
Â
Everyone can still see the surroundings and each other and talk to each other "as usual" and also see. By developing protection screen, Chat users can still go out and take a bike ride together during Corona time.
