USB powered bicycle helmet should be in all our futures
With summer around the corner, many look at their bicycles and contemplate whether they need a tune up before breaking them out for the season. Looked at not so fondly is the ungainly bicycle helmet. While it may save your pretty mug or even more precious brain pan in a nasty spill, even the best are somewhat uncomfortable and a pain to have to cope with.
Hövding Sverige Ab wants to change that. The Swedish design company has come up with an airbag helmet that rests around your neck like a funky sci-fi collar. The switch to power on the collar is integrated into the zipper and clasp, so that the power is automatically turned off when you remove it. Another cool high tech feature is the battery pack, which is charged by Micro USB. If you ever experience a crash it actually records accident information.
Hövding is taking pre-orders for the airbag helmet only in Europe at the moment, and the luxury of keeping your noggin ‘helmet head’ free doesn’t come cheap. The suggested retail price is 2998 SEK (Krona), which translates to about $450, or more than what many bikes cost. Even so, it’s an impressive piece of cycling gear, and I’m sure many would be willing to ditch their plastic and styrofoam helmets it the price could come down a bit. The company will also be selling different fashionable shells, so you can match it to different outfits. To see it in action, check out the crash test video below…
