Brake Glow 

Founded in September 2023, BrakeGlow stands as a pioneering student-athlete-led startup with a profound commitment to enhancing road safety. At its core, this innovative company is dedicated to revolutionizing the way we perceive and interact with our vehicles' braking systems. Brake Glows project centers around the development of pressure-sensitive brake lights, designed to provide drivers with an unparalleled insight into the intensity of braking maneuvers by nearby vehicles, ultimately leading to a substantial improvement in road safety. 

To fully understand the large scale issue of rear end collusions, the alarming statistics must be considered. Annually, the United States experiences an alarming 1.7 million rear-end collisions a year, a sobering reminder of the imperative need for advancements in automotive safety features. BrakeGlow, recognizing this pressing issue, has taken it upon itself to address this crisis head-on. At present, the company is in the midst of fine-tuning their second prototype, a pivotal step toward realizing their vision. Moreover, we are actively exploring the possibility of patenting our product system.

Comprising a dynamic team of three student-athletes from Lawrence University, BrakeGlow is defined by their unwavering work ethic and shared dedication to creating a safer environment for all road users. These individuals bring a unique blend of passion, commitment, and expertise to the table, ensuring that the company is well-equipped to tackle the challenges of their groundbreaking project.
