--- CORE FEATURES ---

1. HIGH-INTENSITY CYCLING STROBE
* Steady Mode for continuous illumination.
* Fast Strobe (5-12 Hz) for maximum daytime and nighttime visibility at busy intersections.
* Slow Pulse Mode for low-energy consumption during twilight.
* SOS Mode for emergency situations.
* Custom Strobe Mode with an easy-to-use slider allowing precise adjustments from 1 Hz to 15 Hz.

2. STABLE BACKGROUND SERVICE
The flashing strobe is powered by a high-performance Android Foreground Service with dedicated WakeLock retention. The light will continue pulsing stably without stuttering even when your screen is locked, or if you switch to a navigation app! Easily turn off the light directly from the status bar notification.

3. SCREEN SAFETY LIGHT (Tail & Head Lantern)
Double up your visibility or light up your path:
* White Light for primary front headlight backup.
* Caution Yellow for warning/fog light.
* Tail Red for rear-facing safety overlay (perfect when mounting the phone to your backpack or jersey).
* Simple touch gesture hides all UI buttons, casting a pure colored light across the entire screen.

4. INTEGRATED GPS SPEEDOMETER
Keep track of your speed in real-time on a large, high-visibility dashboard overlaying the screen safety lantern!
* Highly accurate GPS-based speed computation.
* Oversized digital typography for quick handlebar readability.
* Instant toggle between Metric (km/h) and Imperial (mph) units.

5. SMOOTH NAVIGATIONAL COMPASS
Navigate cities and trails with an elegant analog-digital canvas-drawn compass. A built-in low-pass smoothing filter stabilizes volatile magnetic sensor data, ensuring the dial rotates gracefully as you steer.

6. SMART AUTOMATION & TELEMETRY
* Auto-Light Mode: The app automatically starts the strobe when entering low-light conditions (tunnels, heavily wooded parks, or at sunset) by reading your device's ambient light sensor.
* Smart Battery Saver: When your phone's battery drops below 20%, VeloPulse automatically throttles the strobe down to an eco-friendly pulse mode (2.5 Hz) to conserve power for the rest of your ride.
* Live Telemetry: Monitor exact battery percentage and live battery temperature to prevent overheating on hot summer days.

--- WHY CHOOSE VELOPULSE? ---
* Beautiful, responsive Neon Cyberpunk UI that looks stunning on handlebars.
* Extremely glove-friendly with a giant central glowing power toggle.
* Zero data collection: all location and sensor data are processed strictly on-device.
