Re: [ST] Anybody seen these?

A cynic would interpret that as:

The optics are lossy and they shut down completely when you move your
head!

I know, I am one.

BTW. I suspect that a rear-facing camera feeding the "GPS/everything
else" unit is more likely the way to go.

FWIW: according to their FAQ...

Q: What about the glare from vehicles coming from behind?
A: The helmet has a series of reflective surfaces that limit the
intensity of light hitting the front reflective surface. This limits
the
intensity of reflected light significantly. Even a slight turn of the
head can ensure the reflective light path is stopped. Find out more on
the safety & design page.

How?  Any optical engineers out there?

I think it would be distracting.

Here is a sort of simplified diagram of the internal optics of the
helmet:

On another page they show a photo containing a partial view of the
rear
of
the helmet:

What I want to know is how one dims the optics so that the driver
behind
you at night with their high-beams on doesn't blind the rider?
