Riding a motorcycle requires an increased focus on the traffic and conditions in order to stay safe, so the conceptual 'RONIN' helmet has been designed to offer riders a new way to monitor their surroundings.
Featuring a heads-up display (HUD) in the visor, the helmet features depth-sensing camera technology that will offer the rider enhanced awareness of what's going on around them. Metrics are displayed to the users along with a series of instrument readings from your motorcycle to prevent riders from ever having to take their eyes off the road ahead of them.
The 'RONIN' helmet is the design work of Soumo Karar and identifies a need for more advanced equipment for motorcyclists to keep them safely connected.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Traffic-monitoring HUD Helmets
- The rise of traffic-monitoring helmets equipped with HUD will prompt helmet manufacturers to integrate new sensor technologies.
- Depth-sensing Camera Technology
- Further development in depth-sensing camera technology will enable helmets to provide riders with even more advanced telemetry about their surroundings and their bike's performance.
- Connected Safety Equipment for Motorcyclists
- The trend towards connected safety equipment for motorcyclists will create new opportunities for tech startups to improve safety in the motorcycle industry.
Sectors Adopting This
- Motorcycle Accessories Manufacturing
- Helmet manufacturers will be met with a growing demand for advanced safety gear, leading to investment opportunities in research and innovation in motorcycle accessories manufacturing.
- Sensor Manufacturing
- The demand for sensors that support depth-sensing technology in helmets is set to increase, prompting investment in sensor manufacturing and R&D.
- Smart Safety Equipment for Vehicles
- The rise of connected helmets will create opportunities for companies that create smart safety equipment for vehicles, such as collision sensors and automatic emergency response systems.
