Motorcycle safety continues to evolve as new technologies are introduced to reduce distraction and improve rider awareness. Viber Alert focuses on a haptic interface designed to deliver essential information through vibration rather than visual cues. The system integrates vibrating motors into a motorcycle seat, allowing riders to receive alerts without looking away from the road. This approach addresses a significant safety challenge, as rider inattention contributes to a large portion of global road fatalities.The transcript notes that more than one million people lose their lives each year in road accidents, with a substantial percentage linked to distraction. Motorcyclists face an even greater risk because every glance at the dashboard removes attention from the road ahead. By shifting information delivery from visual to tactile, Viber Alert aims to reduce these moments of vulnerability and support safer riding conditions.How the Haptic Interface WorksThe Viber Alert system uses four vibration motors embedded in the seat. These motors are positioned at the four corners, allowing directional cues to be felt through the rider's body. When a turn signal remains active, a vibration is delivered on the corresponding side of the seat. When a vehicle approaches from behind or when another safety system detects a potential hazard, the vibration is delivered from the rear. The system translates dashboard information, navigation cues, and safety alerts into tactile patterns that can be understood without diverting attention.The interface connects directly to the motorcycle and communicates with onboard systems. For aftermarket use, a partnership with Corbin enables integration into replacement seats for a wide range of motorcycle models. Riders using the aftermarket version can connect through a proprietary app that provides haptic navigation, speed trap alerts, and hazard notifications. A button on the side of the saddle allows riders to report road hazards, creating a shared safety network among users.Expanding Access and Future ApplicationsThe technology is currently being integrated through OEM partnerships and aftermarket seat manufacturers. The Corbin collaboration allows riders to purchase seats with the haptic interface already installed, making the system accessible without requiring technical expertise. The app‑based navigation system supports turn‑by‑turn guidance through vibration, reducing reliance on visual map checks.The transcript also highlights potential insurance applications. Because the system collects data on rider behavior, such as harsh braking, aggressive turns, and speed compliance, future partnerships with insurance providers may create opportunities for premium discounts. These possibilities remain under exploration, but the data‑driven nature of the system supports long‑term potential in this area.The origin of the technology is rooted in personal experience. The co‑founder, Vincenzo, developed the system after experiencing a motorcycle accident, motivating the creation of a tool that could reduce risk for other riders. This background reinforces the system's focus on real‑world safety challenges and practical solutions.ConclusionViber Alert introduces a haptic safety interface designed to reduce distraction and improve rider awareness by delivering essential information through vibration. Through directional cues, hazard alerts, and haptic navigation, the system supports safer riding conditions without requiring visual attention. With OEM integration, aftermarket availability, and future insurance applications, the technology reflects a shift toward more intuitive and less distracting motorcycle safety systems.Interview by Scott Ertz of PLUGHITZ Live.Sponsored by: Get $5 to protect your credit card information online with Privacy.

Expanding Access to Buprenorphine and Methadone: Global Perspectives and Policy Recommendations Substance Use and Addiction Journal This is a narrative review of methadone and buprenorphine regulations, prescriber eligibility, dispensing models, and coverage across eight countries: the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Russia, France, Iran, Australia, and Portugal. The study identified several key barriers to MOUD: requirements for daily supervised dosing, restricted community prescribing, and stigmatizing drug scheduling. The authors highlight policies that improved MOUD access without compromising safety such as: 1) community pharmacy dispensing supports in the U.K. and Australia, 2) liberal buprenorphine prescribing in primary care in France, and 3) decriminalization and expansion of low-threshold public health models in Portugal and Iran.   Read this issue of the ASAM Weekly Subscribe to the ASAM Weekly Visit ASAM

Private markets are swelling, public markets are shrinking, and the line between the two has never been blurrier. In this episode, CJ sits down with Scott Voss, Managing Partner at HarbourVest, to make sense of what's happening across venture, private equity, credit, and secondaries. Scott explains why companies like SpaceX and OpenAI are now valued alongside public giants, how the surge in take-privates is reshaping corporate strategy, and what happens when the quarterly earnings pressure disappears. They dive into the rise of GP-led deals, the evolving role of private credit as the “third voice in the room,” and why liquidity—not scarcity—will define this cycle. Scott also breaks down the growing appeal of evergreen and permanent capital structures, plus what AI mega-deals signal about the next phase of private investing.—LINKS:Scott Voss on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-voss-b91b94/HarbourVest Partners: https://www.harbourvest.comCJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Secondaries, Continuation Vehicles, and Sidecar Funds: Private Equity with HarbourVest's Scott Voss -—TIMESTAMPS:(00:00:00) Preview and Intro(00:02:49) Sponsor – Mercury | RightRev | Tipalti(00:06:43) Opening Conversation(00:07:23) The Blurring Line Between Public and Private(00:09:36) The Rise of Mega Venture(00:11:20) The First $10 Trillion Company(00:12:28) The Shrinking Public Markets(00:13:09) Take-Private Playbook(00:14:04) Why Companies Go Private(00:16:00) Sponsor – Aleph | Rillet | Fidelity Private Shares(00:19:21) Efficiency and Exits(00:23:15) Liquidity in Private Markets(00:24:01) Secondaries and GP-Led Deals(00:27:14) Yale and the Secondary Market(00:29:09) Innovation and the Rise of GP-to-GP Trades(00:30:16) Liquidity Cycles and Interest Rates(00:33:18) The Third Voice in the Room – Private Credit(00:34:44) Private Credit and GP-Led Deals(00:36:02) Interest Rates and Deal Spreads(00:37:15) The Major Players in Private Credit(00:38:09) Regulation and Risk(00:39:25) Private Credit vs. Traditional Lending(00:40:33) Evergreen and Permanent Capital(00:45:57) Expanding Access to Private Markets(00:47:03) Understanding the Cap Table(00:47:44) AI Deals and Consolidation(00:50:00) The Evolution of AI and Blockchain(00:53:20) Funding Innovation and Risk(00:55:28) Lessons From Investing(00:55:39) Nostalgia and Life Phases(00:57:06) Nostalgia and the 1990s(00:59:21) Learn, Earn, and Return(01:00:45) Talking Nostalgia at Dinners(01:01:27) Summer Surfing(01:02:25) Wrap-Up and Closing—SPONSORS:Fidelity Private Shares is the all-in-one equity management platform that keeps your cap table clean, your data room organized, and your equity story clear—so you never risk losing a fundraising round over messy records.
