Less distractions provide for a much safer and pure riding experience. You as the rider, you only see what is most important, how fast you are going and your next turn. Directions are also displayed in an intuitive way. When a turn is approaching the direction is displayed. A countdown alternates with the direction indicating how long until its time to make the turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
claine650 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Hmm, I like the idea of never looking down to check speed/rpm/ect. But then again, a month into spring riding again, I never really look down at it anyway. I think main concerns would beA.) Helmets are already supposed to be designed to allow absolute full vision/peripheral capability to rider, I'm sure this wouldn't take away from that necessarily, but others may disagree. Might give old men headache, cause illusion, they crash, sue helmet company lol. Or maybe not...My B.) Is I wouldn't pay for this, already have it on my bike, wouldn't buy what would probably be an expensive helmet just for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silentcropduster Posted March 1, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 I personally wouldnt buy this bec I cannot afford it, but I do think it's a novel idea to the right person. It would be really cool if it could be incorporated with some sort of blind spot monitoring system, or if it could detect a car approaching u at a high rate of speed from behind when stopped etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smccrory Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 Ditto to silentcropduster. This could be cool, but I doubt ill afford it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo72 Posted March 1, 2015 Report Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) I like the idea of having a rear view camera to eliminate blind spots. Maybe in a few years when the costs come down. I don't care so much about the HUD part. Has anyone tried the helmet with the rear view mirror built in?

JustinNck1 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 I am currently in the beta testing program for Fusar helmets. They are very extensive in their selection process, but I have made it through a few rounds of surveys. They said if selected, I should get an actual product around May. Hopefully I meet their criteria. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
