Shoei launches world's first helmet with fully integrated AR
I rode motorcycles for several years and I was stunned to learn no one makes a helmet with some sort of integrated technology in the visor that puts a black spot over where the sun is, so you aren’t completely blind when driving in the morning.
Anything that does that will likely be an extremely over-engineered and expensive solution for the problem. I don’t even think I’ve seen a clear screen capable of blocking light with that type of granularity.
I rode for years, and was surprised at the lack of visors that incorporate multiple filters like this; requiring users to carry a separate visor or sunglasses, and stopping to manually change them.
Even helmets with rear view mirrors are exceedingly rare.
My current helmet has an internal sun visor I can drop down in front of my eyes with a lever on the outside of the helmet. My previous one had a photo chromatic lens that would change colors based on how much light it was encountering. Both work(ed) great but I prefer the internal sun visor.
