Abstract
Micromobility refers to small, lightweight and low-speed personal devices including motorized (e-scooters) or non-motorized (bicycles) vehicles. However, the most vulnerable road users are riders of micromobility, including bicycles, ebikes, e-scooters and motorcycles. Additionally, the safety of micromobility devices is considered the most significant factor that influence the adoption of this mode of transportation in urban environments. Therefore, different sensing systems have been used for collecting micromobility motion data and detecting various aspects of micromobility safety. This review summarises research on micromobility sensing systems and safety services. It is organised into four topics: micromobility and sensing approaches, micromobility safety challenges and potential solutions, micromobility sensors and data acquisition methods, and micromobility safety and hazard detection. Therefore, a brief account of micromobility sensing approaches and their roles in tackling micromobility safety challenges is given. Additionally, the applications of various types of micromobility data collection methods and sensos are described. Finally, a brief overview is given of possible applications micromobility sensing data in hazard detection techniques and therefore in shaping the micromobility safety schemes.
