Handsfree Hiker Headgear

The Runastic Head Sensor Helmet Has Handsfree Music and Mic Settings

— December 17, 2012 — Lifestyle
The Runastic Head Sensor Helmet is a safe way for cyclists to listen to music or talk on the phone without worrying about their Bluetooth device or earphones flying off.

Equipped with an attached microphone as well as the Play and Stop buttons for music, the Runastic Head Sensor Helmet lets bikers activate music and answer the phone single-handedly with one simple touch. Included in the set is Bluetooth Smart Combo chest strap that has a GPS locator and measures the heart rate of the wearer. The information is automatically uploaded to the user's smartphone -- Android, BlackBerry, Windows Phone or iPhone, though the final one is only compatible with the 4, 4S and 5 -- using the Runastic app. The sturdy headgear is not only great for cyclists but also hikers, campers and the outdoor adventurers.
Trend Themes
1. Handsfree Technology - The Runastic Head Sensor Helmet demonstrates the potential for handsfree technology in various outdoor activities.
2. Wearable Fitness Tracker - The accompanying Bluetooth Smart Combo chest strap showcases the growth opportunity for wearable fitness trackers with added features.
3. Smart Safety Gear - The use of embedded technology in safety gear such as the Runastic Head Sensor Helmet is a potential trend for enhancing user safety during outdoor activities.
Industry Implications

2. Wearables - The Bluetooth Smart Combo chest strap highlights opportunities for wearables companies to expand their products into the fitness market.
3. Safety Equipment - Companies focused on safety equipment can explore the potential for integrating embedded technology, like in the Runastic Head Sensor Helmet, to enhance user safety and convenience.
