Folding Cyclist Helmet
An innovative folding cyclist helmet that packs down into a compact shape, with a secure locking mechanism and built-in Bluetooth sound system and microphone.
About the project
This is an innovative protective helmet that folds into a compact shape, making it easy to carry. Folding and unfolding it is fast and simple for the user, and an innovative locking mechanism holds the helmet modules securely in position.
The helmet also includes a sound system and a microphone that connect by Bluetooth to a device such as a mobile phone, so the cyclist can listen to music and talk on the phone while cycling.
The product went through a thorough and comprehensive development process, from its very first concept to substantial prototype testing. Advanced engineering plastics and design technologies were used to achieve a modern design that protects the cyclist, and the work was carried out in collaboration with an electronics engineer.
