The headlight does not light the way for you, but the moving legs of the cyclist. This way, Biomotion (your human movement) is visible, making other road users automatically more attentive and cautious.
In regular bicycle lighting, it is important that the light has a wide beam angle to have a clear view of the road ahead. If such a bike light were to be turned upside down, it would not only result in glare for yourself, but it would also inconvenience other road users. Ziemi has been carefully designed to only illuminate the cyclist's moving legs.
Dit verschilt per bestelling. Het hangt ervan af wanneer je je Ziemi voorlicht hebt besteld.

We hebben met onze fabrikant afgesproken dat alle Tommi’s die dan nog niet verkocht zijn, teruggaan naar de fabriek om gerecycled te worden. Op die manier voorkomen we verspilling en kunnen onderdelen opnieuw worden gebruikt in toekomstige Ziemi-producties.
Tommi was bedoeld als een tijdelijke oplossing: een manier om perfect werkende lampen met een kleine productiefout toch een veilig en verantwoord thuis te geven. Dat hoofdstuk sluiten we nu bewust af.
Ondertussen hebben we onze reguliere Ziemi-productie gelukkig snel kunnen opschalen. De laatste kerstlevering was binnen korte tijd uitverkocht en begin januari komt een nieuwe batch van 16.000 Ziemi’s.
We merken dat de vraag hoog blijft, dus: wil je verzekerd zijn van een Ziemi, wees er op tijd bij!
No, the Ziemi is not intended to replace your traditional headlight. It remains important to use a regular headlamp to have good visibility on the road and to be visible from the front. Ziemi is an additional lighting that makes your moving legs visible from the front and sides, making you more recognizable as a cyclist and safer in traffic.
Reflectors are absolutely visibility-enhancing and mandatory on every bicycle. However, the operation of reflectors is reactive. Light must shine on them first before they become visible. Think of a situation at a roundabout, if you approach from a corner of your eye, the light is too late on the reflector. The Ziemi ensures that you are constantly visible and well-lit while participating in traffic. Especially in the corner of the eye, you now stand out with a larger illuminated surface and your recognizability as a human.
The housing of Ziemi is designed in such a way that the light is directed only on the moving legs of the cyclist and then reflected back to the front and sides. This makes the white light visible only from the front and sides, and not from the back.
The Ziemi is designed so that it only shines on its legs and no further. If you're on a bike you won't notice this in your field of vision and you can get on the road with a feeling of rest.
The Ziemi has a built-in rechargeable battery. You will receive a matching usb-c cable included in each package. As a result the Ziemi can last for years and can be used every time.
