The Worlds Most Advanced Motorcycle Helmet - the Skully AR-1

Have a look at an AGV from 10 years ago, or a Shoei, or an Arai - now look at the latest one in your local dealer....they're (for the most part) the same offering. There's very few items that have advanced as little as motorcycle helmets in my opinion.

Eventually here's someone planning to move the bar in motorcycle helmet functionality.

It makes me think - where will this all go? Imaging if Google glass technology and big data make it into our helmet......it could pre-alert us to oncoming potential accidents, provide geo-located touring data, identify where we're losing milli-seconds on a race track......

Nine hours use per charge, rear view camera, GPS, Music, mobile, a heads up display, and most importantly a platform that can be extended upon in future (the platform if being made available to developers (according to techy site BGR).

It's costing $1399 (roughly €1000).

The project went out for crowd sourcing a few days ago. It needed to raise $250,000 by September 9th. It raised $800,000 in its first day!

At the time of type it has raised $1.3m - you can see the crowd source project here.
