Thanks to everyone who answered the survey, to those who answered seriously I am very grateful, to those who didn't... at least you gave me a good laugh!

And yes, I know nothing about motorbikes or helmets, I was given the brief by my course. Thank you all for telling me so many times!

Well, while i dont have the money for it... A HUD system that can be put into a helmet is kinda what my project idea was...

The real issue with hud systems is focusing. Think about it. You cant just place a transparent display in a pin lock as most people even with 2020 vision cant focus on anything thats only an inch in front of there eyes.

This is where a google glasses kinda thing works...

Anyway... something fun to work on one day

Just watched a promo vid about skully... Damn i hate the announcer. Im Mr Serious..... Listen to me...!!!!!!!!!


Anyway Its nice to hear Kitt do the car link stuff....

But I admit my idea, does still have one usp, it would have fitted to any lid. You didnt have to spend hundreds maybe a thousand quid on a lid, that might break if you come off...

Would be a double kick in the balls that one.

So yeah, my idea was something that could safely retrofit into a lid... or maybe in a glasses setup... I dunno. Its just ideas floating in my head.

Reasons?
----------------------------------------------

Regardless there is a lot of information that we process without sight - we all call this "feedback" - having HD rendered images on screen is "cool", but same information could be fed back in many other ways.

Sat Nav I just hook up a ear bud to my phone - Google maps tells me where to go.

could fill a lid with buzzers and vibrations - but we have that direct from primary source - our machines - not like a insulated car.

some problems are non problems in the first instance - but then having a decent HUD on the visor would be cool as you like, on that one perfect day a year, when it's not misted up, to warm, clean and not to bright a dry day.

like I say I still don't care - It'd be awesome to have a quality HUD, especially for track lines and "seeing" corners on dark unknown roads.

"Are there any features you would like to have on your helmet?"

That's a closed question - the only possible answers are "Yes" or "No".*
